Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

According to third equation of motion, v

2

=u

2

+2ax

Here, u=0 m/s

a=−g and x=−h

Negative sign indicates downward direction. Displacement and acceleration both are downwards.

So,v=±

2(−g)(−h)

​

We take minus sign because it is downwards.

v=−

2gh

​

After bouncing. velocity becomes 80% of v, i.e.,

v

′

=+0.8

2gh

​

 

(positive sign because the direction of ball has reversed after bouncing and is upwards.

Applying third equation of motion again, for u=v

′

, v=0 and a=−g

v

2

=u

2

+2×a×x

Thus,

0=0.64(2gh)+2(−g)x

or

x=0.64h

when 82.5 calories of heat are given to a metallic rod of mass 150g its temperature raises from 20 degree celcius to 25 degree C
marishachu [46]

A 150-g metallic rod with a specific heat of 0.11 cal/g.°C absorbs 82.5 calories of heat and its temperature increases from 20 °C to 25 °C.

<h3>What is specific heat?</h3>

It is the heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a given substance by a given amount (usually one degree).

A metallic rod of mass 150 g (m) absorbs 82.5 cal of heat (Q) and its temperature raises from 20 °C to 25 °C. We can calculate the specific heat (c) of the metal using the following expression.

Q = c × m × ΔT

c = Q / m × ΔT

c = 82.5 cal / 150 g × (25 °C - 20 °C) = 0.11 cal/g.°C

A 150-g metallic rod with a specific heat of 0.11 cal/g.°C absorbs 82.5 calories of heat and its temperature increases from 20 °C to 25 °C.

Physics question!!!
lesantik [10]

Answer:

4.5 metres

Explanation:

Using Hooke's Law (F\propto x)

We need to find the spring constant of the bungee cord with the given extension and force, we can do this by substituting in known values.

600=3k\\k=200

Now we have found the spring constant of the bungee cord, we can substitute it in for the a different force. As the cord is the same we can use the same spring constant.

900=200x\\x=4.5

Which best describes friction in the context of newton's laws?
Pie

Answer:

b

Explanation:

friction needs two objects

the two objects need to touch each other

the two objects need to either have relative movement or, tend to have relative movement urge. (kinetic friction or static friction)
