Answer:

• As heat is applied to one end of this material, atoms in the hotter region gain vibràtory energy at a maximum amplitude. They transfer it on to their neighboring atoms and heat is transfered along this material in form of vibràtory energy.

aliina [53]

Answer:

58.5 m

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the total time the ball takes to reach the water. This can be done by looking at the vertical motion only.

The initial vertical velocity of the ball is

u_y = u sin \theta

where

u = 21.5 m/s is the initial speed

\theta=33.5^{\circ} is the angle

Substituting,

u_y = (21.5) sin 33.5^{\circ} =11.9 m/s

The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by

y = h + u_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h = 13.5 m is the initial heigth

g = -9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (negative sign because it points downward)

The ball reaches the water when y = 0, so

0 = h + u_yt +\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\0 = 13.5 +11.9 t - 4.9t^2

Which gives two solutions: t = 3.27 s and t = -0.84 s. We discard the negative solution since it is meaningless.

The horizontal velocity of the ball is

u_y = u cos \theta = (21.5) cos 33.5^{\circ} =17.9 m/s

And since the motion along the horizontal direction is a uniform motion, we can find the horizontal distance travelled by the ball as follows:

d= u_x t = (17.9)(3.27)=58.5 m

Answer:

Precisely, water has to absorb 4,184 Joules of heat (1 calorie) for the temperature of one kilogram of water to increase 1°C. For comparison sake, it only takes 385 Joules of heat to raise 1 kilogram of copper 1°C.

sammy [17]

Answer:

25 mm = 0 deg C

200 mm = 100 deg C

200 - 25 = 175 = change in thread per 100 deg C

95 - 25 = 70 mm - change in thread from 0 deg C

70 / 175 * 100 = 40 deg C    final temperature at 95 mm
