Explain why fish survive under water when the surface is already frozen​

Physics

Answer:

ice is a poor conductor of heat and less dense than water. During winter, ice floats and insulates the water under it. Below the frozen layer, the water remains in its liquid state and does not freeze. Also, oxygen is trapped beneath the layer of ice. This makes it possible for aquatic animals to survive during winter.

Answer:

a. 11.29 s b. 94.72 m/s at -39.8° c. 821.57 m​

Explanation:

a. Using y - y₀ = ut - 1/2gt² where u = vertical component of velocity = v₀sinθ where v₀ = 88.3 m/s and θ = 34.5°, y₀ = + 60 m and y = water surface = 0 m, g = 9.8 m/s² and t = time it takes the cannon to reach the water surface.

So y - y₀ = ut - 1/2gt²

y - y₀ = (v₀sinθ)t - 1/2gt²

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

0 - 60 = (88.3 m/s × sin34.5°)t - 1/2 × 9.8 m/s²× t²

- 60 = 50t - 4.9t²

So, 4.9t² - 50t - 60 = 0

Using the quadratic formula to find t,

t = \frac{-(-50) +/- \sqrt{(-50)^{2} - 4 X 4.9 X -60} }{2 X 4.9} \\t = \frac{50 +/- \sqrt{2500 + 1176} }{9.8} \\t = \frac{50 +/- \sqrt{3676} }{9.8} \\t = \frac{50 +/- 60.63 }{9.8} \\t = \frac{50 + 60.63 }{9.8} or t = \frac{50 - 60.63 }{9.8} \\t = \frac{110.63 }{9.8} or t = \frac{-10.63 }{9.8} \\t = 11.29 sor -1.085

Since t cannot be negative, t = 11.29 s

b. We first need to find the impact vertical velocity component. Using

v = u - gt where u = initial vertical velocity component = v₀sinθ  and t = 11.29 s and g = 9.8 m/s². So,

v = v₀sinθ - gt

= 88.3 m/s × sin34.5° - 9.8 m/s² × 11.29 s

= 50.01 m/s - 110.64 m/s

= -60.63 m/s

Since the horizontal velocity is constant u' = v₀cosθ = 88.3 m/s × cos34.5° = 72.77 m/s.

The impact velocity is thus the resultant of the horizontal velocity and final impact velocity. So, V = √(v² + u'²)

= √((-60.63 m/s)² + (72.77 m/s)²)

= √((3676 m²/s² + 5295.48 m²/s²)

= √(8971.48 m²/s²

= 94.72 m/s

The angle θ = tan⁻¹(v/u') = tan⁻¹(-60.63 m/s ÷ 72.77 m/s) = tan⁻¹(-0.8332) = -39.8°

So the impact velocity is 94.72 m/s at -39.8°

c. The horizontal distance out from the base of the cliff that the ball strikes the water is the range, R = u't = 72.77 m/s × 11.29 s = 821.57 m​

When Woods hits a 0.04593 kg golf ball, the golf ball is usually traveling around 281 kilometers per hour. What average force do
Semenov [28]

Answer:

128.9 N

Explanation:

The force exerted on the golf ball is equal to the rate of change of momentum of the ball, so we can write:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

where

F is the force

\Delta p is the change in momentum

\Delta t=0.030 s is the time interval

The change in momentum can be written as

\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m = 0.04593 kg is the mass of the ball

u = 0 is the initial velocity of the ball

v=281 km/h =78.1 m/s is the final velocity of the ball

Substituting into the original equation, we find the force exerted on the golf ball:

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}=\frac{(0.04593)(78.1-0)}{0.030}=128.9 N
