A student wished to add a new experiment to Chapter 2 by investigating whether the mass of water changes when it is heated. The

mass of a beaker containing a sample of water at 20°C was 109.44 g. After heating the sample to 60°C, the com- bined mass of the beaker and water was 109.08 g. Do these results contradict the law of conservation of mass? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

mass conservation is valid for all closed system where the mass will remain in the system always

Explanation:

Conservation of mass is applicable everywhere in classical physics

Here we can also apply mass conservation as we know that the initially the beaker and its water content is having total mass of 109.44 g

m_1 = 109.44 g

now when we heated it to higher temperature then its total mass will be lesser than the initial mass this is because some of the water may evaporate from the system.

Here if we repeat the same experiment with closed boundary then we can see that total mass will be conserved

So here mass conservation is valid for all closed system where the mass will remain in the system always

A 0.095 kg tennis ball is traveling to the right at 40 m/s when it bounces of a wall and travels in the opposite direction it ca
Mashutka [201]

given that

mass of ball = 0.095 kg

initial velocity of ball towards the wall = 40 m/s

final velocity of the ball after it rebound = 30 m/s

now change in momentum is given as

\Delta P = m(v_f - v_i)

\Delta P = 0.095(30 - (-40))

\Delta P = 6.65 kg m/s

So change in momentum will be 6.65 kg m/s

A ship 1200m off shore fires a gun. how long after the gun is fired will it be heard on the shore?​
ryzh [129]

Answer:

We know that the speed of sound is 343 m/s in air

we are also given the distance of the boat from the shore

From the provided data, we can easily find the time taken by the sound to reach the shore using the second equation of motion

s = ut + 1/2 at²

since the acceleration of sound is 0:

s = ut + 1/2 (0)t²

s = ut    <em>(here, u is the speed of sound , s is the distance travelled and t is the time taken)</em>

Replacing the variables in the equation with the values we know

1200 = 343 * t

t = 1200 / 343

t = 3.5 seconds (approx)

Therefore, the sound of the gun will be heard at the shore, 3.5 seconds after being fired
