Answer:

0.84 s

Explanation:

Step 1

Given information:

Mass of the ice (m) = 2.0 kg

Heat transfer rate (Q/T) = 793.0 kW

Latent heat of fusion of ice (Lf) = 334 kJ/kg

$\frac{Q}{T} = \frac{mLf}{T}$

Substituting the corresponding values we have:

$793.0 kW= \frac{2.0kg(334 kJ/kg)}{T} \\ T = \frac{2.0kg(334 kJ/kg)}{793.0kW} = \frac{668kJ}{793kW} \\ = 0.84s$

Two bicyclist, originally separated by a distance of 20 miles, are each traveling at a uniform speed of 10 miles per hour toward

Radda [10]

Answer:

D = 25 miles

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we just need to know how much time it took both bicyclists to collide and that will be the same amount of time that the bee flew at 25miles per hour. With those values we could calculate the distance it traveled.

Since both bicyclists collide, we know that Xa=Xb, so:

Xa = V*t = 10*t and Xb = 20 - V*t = 20 - 10*t

10*t = 20 - 10*t Solving for t:

t = 1 hour Now we can calculate the distance for the bee:

D = Vbee * t = 25 * 1 = 25 miles

From a set of graphed data the slope of the best fit line is found to be 1.35 m/s and the slope of the worst fit line is 1.29m/s

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Solution:

Let the slope of the best fit line be represented by ' $m_{best}$ '

and the slope of the worst fit line be represented by ' $m_{worst}$ '

Given that:

$m_{best}$ = 1.35 m/s

$m_{worst}$ = 1.29 m/s

Then the uncertainity in the slope of the line is given by the formula:

$\Delta m = \frac{m_{best}-m_{worst}}{2}$ (1)

Substituting values in eqn (1), we get

$\Delta m = \frac{1.35 - 1.29}{2}$ = 0.03 m/s

A 16.0kg canoe moving to the left at 12.5m/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 14.0kg raft moving to the right at 16.0m/

kherson [118]

The canoe is moving at 14.1 m/s to the right after the collision.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of momentum, in absence of external forces the total momentum of the system must be conserved before and after the collision. So we can write:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = m_1 v_1 + m_2 v_2$

where:

$m_1 = 16.0 kg$ is the mass of the canoe

$u_1 = -12.5 m/s$ is the initial velocity of canoe (we take right as positive direction, and since the canoe is moving to the left, its velocity is negative)
