Conservation of momentum: total momentum before = total momentum after
Momentum = mass x velocity
So before the collision:
4kg x 8m/s = 32
1kg x 0m/s = 0
32+0=32
Therefore after the collision
4kg x 4.8m/s = 19.2
1kg x βm/s = β
19.2 + β = 32
Therefore β = 12.8 m/s
Answer:
The right option is (d) substance undergoing a change of state
Explanation:
Latent Heat: Latent heat is the heat required to change the state of a substance without change in temperature. Latent heat is also known as hidden heat because the heat is not visible. The unit is Joules (J).
Latent heat is divided into two:
⇒ Latent Heat of fusion
⇒ Latent Heat of vaporization.
Latent Heat of fusion: This is the heat energy required to convert a substance from its solid form to its liquid form without change in temperature. E.g (Ice) When ice is heated, its temperature rise steadily until a certain temperature is reached when the solid begins to melts.
Latent Heat of vaporization: This is the heat required to change a liquid substance to vapor without a change in temperature. The latent heat depend on the mass of the liquid and the nature of the liquid. E.g When water is heated from a known temperature its boiling point (100°C) When more heat is supplied to its boiling temperature, it continue to boil without a change in temperature.
From The above, Latent heat brings about a change of state of a substance at a steady temperature.
The right option is (d) substance undergoing a change of state
Answer:
Reflection is simply the property of a light that rebounds or bounces back after hitting a surface.
Refraction is when the light, which passes through a surface, undergoes some changes in appearance whenever it usually passes through a medium.
