A can of soft drink at room temperature is put into the refrigerator so that it will cool. Would you model the can of soft drink

as a closed system or as an open system?

Answer:

A can of soft drink being transferred from the room temperature to a refrigerator is a closed system.

Explanation:

When a can of soft drink is transferred to a refrigerator from room temperature then only energy transfer can occur i.e. the heat of soft drink is absorbed by the refrigerator but the quantity of mass packed in the can does not gets altered.

From the thermodynamic point of view a closed system is one in which the mass content of the system does not changes only the energy transfer can take place through the boundary of the system.

maksim [4K]

When the body touches the ground two types of Forces will be generated. The Force product of the weight and the Normal Force. This is basically explained in Newton's third law in which we have that for every action there must also be a reaction. If the Force of the weight is pointing towards the earth, the reaction Force of the block will be opposite, that is, upwards and will be equivalent to its weight:

F = mg

Where,

m = mass

g = Gravitational acceleration

F = 5*9.8

F = 49N

Therefore the correct answer is E.

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

a fossil of a footprint, trail, burrow, or other trace of an animal rather than of the animal itself.

Explanation:

Trace fossils are the indirect evidence of life in the past, such as the footprints, tracks, burrows, borings, and feces left behind by animals, rather than the preserved remains of the actual animal body itself.

Fossil is the naturally preserved remains of plants and animals which somehow get trapped in amber, hair, petrified wood, oil, coal, and DNA remnants.

Suppose two astronauts on a spacewalk are floating motionless in space, 3.0 m apart. Astronaut B tosses a 15.0 kg IMAX camera to
marta [7]

Answer:

\frac{ 112.5}{15+m_{A}}=v_{f}

(we need the mass of the astronaut A)

Explanation:

We can solve this by using the conservation law of the linear momentum P. First we need to represent every mass as a particle. Also we can simplify this system of particles by considering only the astronaut A with an initial speed v_{iA} of 0 m/s and a mass m_{A} and the IMAX camera with an initial speed v_{ic} of 7.5 m/s and a mass m_{c} of 15.0 kg.

The law of conservation says that the linear momentum P (the sum of the products between all masses and its speeds) is constant in time. The equation for this is:

P_{i}=p_{ic}+p_{iA}\\P_{i}=m_{c}v_{ic}+m_{A} v_{iA}\\P_{i}=15*7.5 + m_{A}*0\\P_{i}=112.5 \frac{kg.m}{s}

By the law of conservation we know that P_{i} =P_{f}

For P_{f} (final linear momentum) we need to treat the collision as a plastic one (the two particles stick together after the encounter).

So:

P_{i} =P_{f}=112.5\\

112.5=(m_{c}+m_{A})v_{f}\\\frac{ 112.5}{m_{c}+m_{A}}=v_{f}\\\frac{ 112.5}{15+m_{A}}=v_{f}

An automobile being tested on a straight road is 400 feet from its starting point when the stopwatch reads 8.0 seconds and is 55
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

a)   v = 75 ft / s , b)  v = 55 ft / s , c)   Δx = 1000 ft

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise with the expressions of kinematics

a) average speed is defined as the distance traveled in a given time interval

        v = (x₂-x₁) / (t₂-t₁)

         v = (550 - 400) / (10 -8)

         v = 75 ft / s

b) we repeat the calculations for this interval

   v = (550 - 0) / (10 -0)

   v = 55 ft / s

c)  we clear the distance from the average velocity equation

     Δx = v (t₂ -t₁)

     Δx = 100 (20-10)

     Δx = 1000 ft
