Explain the molecular concept of thermal energy.

Physics
1 answer:
MAVERICK [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The temperature of an object increases when the molecules that make up that object move faster. Thermal energy is energy possessed by an object or system due to the movement of particles within the object or the system.

An astronaut is on the moon. He drops a hammer from a height of 3.2metres and it takes 2.0 seconds to reach the lunar landscape.
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

1/6 m/s^2      ( about 1/6th gravity of Earth ( 9.81 m/s^2)

Explanation:

Displacement =  yo  +  vo t  - 1/2 a t^2

      -  3.2          = 0     +  0     - 1/2 a(2.0)^2

      -     3.2       =                -2a

             a = 3.2 / 2 = 1.6 m/s^2

A garden hose having with an internal diameter of 1.1 cm is connected to a (stationary) lawn sprinkler that consists merely of a
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Water leaves the sprinkler at a speed of 2.322 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given internal diameter of the garden d_1=1.1cm

Speed of water in the hose is v_1=0.95m/sec

Number of holes n = 22

Diameter of each holes d_2=15cm

According to continuity equation A_1v_1=A_2v_2

d_1^2\times v_1=22\times d_2^2v_2

1.1^2\times 0.95=22\times 0.15^2\times v_2

v_2=2.322m/sec

So water leaves the sprinkler at a speed of 2.322 m/sec

Provided following are four different ranges of stellar masses. Rank the stellar mass ranges based on how many stars in each ran
elena-s [515]

Highest to lowest number:

-less than 1 solar mass

-between 1 and 10 solar masses

-between 10 and 30 solar masses

-between 30 and 60 solar masses

<h3>What is Stellar masses ?</h3>

Stellar mass is a phrase that is used by astronomers to describe the mass of a star.

  • It is usually enumerated in terms of the Sun's mass as a proportion of a solar mass ( M ☉). Hence, the bright star Sirius has around 2.02 M ☉.

  • Stellar masses are not fixed, although they change for single stars only on long periods.

A 50 kg runner runs up a flight of stairs. The runner starts out covering 3 steps every second. At the end the runner stops. Thi
nadezda [96]

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts of kinematic equations of motion and the work done by a body.

In the case of work, we know that it is defined by,

W = F * d

Where,

F= Force

d = Distance

The distance in this case is a composition between number of steps and the height. Then,

d=h*N, for h as the height of each step and N number of steps.

On the other hand we have the speed changes, depending on the displacement and acceleration (omitting time)

V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X

Where,

V_f = Final velocity

V_i = Initial Velocity

a = Acceleration

\Delta X = Displacement

PART A) For the particular case of work we know then that,

W = F*d

W = m*g*(h*N)

W = 50*9.8*(0.3*30)

W = 4.41kJ

Therefore the Work to do that activity is 4.41kJ

PART B) To find the acceleration (from which we can later find the time) we start from the previously given equation,

V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X

Here,

V_i = \frac{0.3*3}{1} = 0.90m/s\rightarrow3 steps in one second

v_f = 0

Replacing,

V_f^2-V_i^2 = 2a\Delta X

0-0.9^2=2a(30*0.3)

Re-arrange for a,

a = -\frac{0.9^2}{2*30*0.3}

a = -45*10^{-3}m/s^2

At this point we can calculate the time, which is,

t = \frac{\Delta V}{a}

t = \frac{0-0.9}{-45*10^{-3}}

t = 20s

With time and work we can finally calculate the power

P = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{4.41}{20}

P = 0.2205kW
