The coefficient of expansion is 13 * 10^-6 m per meter length.per oK
The temperature difference = 42 - - 8 = 50 oC
delta T = (42 + 273) - (-8 + 273) = 50 oK
delta L = L * 13* 10^6 m/oK
oK = 50 oK delta L = 19.5 cm = 19.5 cm [1m / 100 cm] = 0.195m
So we need to find the length and it is computed by:
0.195= L * 13 * 10^-6 * 50 L = 0.195 / (13*10^-6*50) L = 300 m
The formation of bonds releases energy.
The accelerations will be the same because the acceleration of each rock is caused only by gravity, which accelerates objects the same amount no matter what the velocity is.
Answer:
As the football travels up, gravity slows it down until it reaches a point where it stops briefly at its highest peak; then the football comes down, and gravity accelerates it until it hits the ground hard.
Have a great day!
