Explanation:

There are three points in time we need to consider.  At point 0, the mango begins to fall from the tree.  At point 1, the mango reaches the top of the window.  At point 2, the mango reaches the bottom of the window.

We are given the following information:

y₁ = 3 m

y₂ = 3 m − 2.4 m = 0.6 m

t₂ − t₁ = 0.4 s

a = -9.8 m/s²

t₀ = 0 s

v₀ = 0 m/s

We need to find y₀.

Use a constant acceleration equation:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

Evaluated at point 1:

3 = y₀ + (0) t₁ + ½ (-9.8) t₁²

3 = y₀ − 4.9 t₁²

Evaluated at point 2:

0.6 = y₀ + (0) t₂ + ½ (-9.8) t₂²

0.6 = y₀ − 4.9 t₂²

Solve for y₀ in the first equation and substitute into the second:

y₀ = 3 + 4.9 t₁²

0.6 = (3 + 4.9 t₁²) − 4.9 t₂²

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − t₂²)

We know t₂ = t₁ + 0.4:

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − (t₁ + 0.4)²)

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − (t₁² + 0.8 t₁ + 0.16))

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (t₁² − t₁² − 0.8 t₁ − 0.16)

0 = 2.4 + 4.9 (-0.8 t₁ − 0.16)

0 = 2.4 − 3.92 t₁ − 0.784

0 = 1.616 − 3.92 t₁

t₁ = 0.412

Now we can plug this into the original equation and find y₀:

3 = y₀ − 4.9 t₁²

3 = y₀ − 4.9 (0.412)²

3 = y₀ − 0.83

y₀ = 3.83

Rounded to two significant figures, the height of the tree is 3.8 meters.

Which of the following will cause an increase in gas pressure in a closed container?
Ludmilka [50]

C. Both A. and B.

Explanation:

Statement A. Reducing the volume is true because of Boyle's law, which states that for a gas at fixed temperature, the pressure p and the volume V are inversely proportional:

pV=const.

Therefore, when the volume V is reduced, the pressure p increases.

Statement B. Adding more gas is also true: in fact, if we add gas into the container, we will have more molecules of the gas hitting the wall of the container. But the pressure of a gas is exactly given by this: by the collision of the molecules against the wall of the container, so the more the molecules of gas, the greater the pressure.

Twenty grams of a solid at 70°C is place in 100 grams of a fluid at 20°C. Thermal equilibrium is reached at 30°C.
zaharov [31]

Answer:

c. is more than that of the fluid.

Explanation:

This problem is based on the conservation of energy and the concept of thermal equilibrium

heat= m s \Delta T


m= mass

s= specific heat

\DeltaT=change in temperature

let s1= specific heat of solid and s2= specific heat of liquid

then

Heat lost by solid= 20(s_1)(70-30)=800s_1


Heat gained by fluid=100(s_2)(30-20)=1000s_2


Now heat gained = heat lost

therefore,

1000 S_2=800 S_1

S_1=1.25 S_2

so the specific heat of solid is more than that of the fluid.
