We use the equation S=½gt² where S=vertical distance=74.3m, g, acceleration of gravity=9.8 m/s/s. So t=√(2S/g)=3.884 seconds. So the car is in the air for about 3.894 secs.
It’s horizontal distance is vt=20×3.894=77.88m.

<h2>For Second Solid Lumped System is Applicabe</h2>

Explanation:

Considering heat transfer between two identical hot solid bodies and their environments -

  • If the first solid is dropped in a large container filled with water, while the second one is allowed to cool naturally in the air than for second solid, the lumped system analysis more likely to be applicable
  • The  reason is that a lumped system analysis is more likely to be applicable in the air than in water as the convection heat transfer coefficient so that the Biot number is less than or equal to 0.1 that is much smaller in air

Biot number = the ratio of conduction resistance within the body to convection resistance at the surface of the body

∴ For a lumped system analysis Biot number should be less than 0.1

This means that the speed at which the bullet travels across Earth's surface (its magnitude of horizontal velocity) does not aff
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer: the speed at which it falls toward the Earth.


Explanation:


A bullet travelling across Earth's surface with some horizontal velocity is classical example of projectile motion.


Projectile motion is an idealization of the motion under the action of gravity neglecting the influence of the air (no drag force nor friction).


This  kind of motion is the result of two independent motions: vertical motion and horizontal motion.


The observed net velocity is the vectorial sum of the vertical and horizontal velocities.


The horizontal velocity is constant, since there is not any force acting in the horizontal axis. Thi is, the object, following the first Law of Newton (inertia law) tends to continue in uniform rectilinear movement (with zero acceleration).


The vertical velocity, this is the velocity at which the bullet falls toward the Earth, is influenced (accelerated) by the action of the gravity of the Earth. So, the vertical velocity is accelerated by the pull of the Earth.


Vertical and horizontal velocities are independent of each other, which means that the speed or the magnitude of the horizontal velocity does not affect the speed at which an object (the bullet) falls toward the Earth.

Determine whether each substance will sink or float in corn syrup, which has a density of 1.36 g/cm3. Write “sink” or “float” in
Tatiana [17]

Explanation:

  • A substance will floats if it is having lower density than the density of the liquid in which it is placed.
  • A substance will sink if it is having density greater than the density of the liquid in which it is kept.

Density of corn syrup = 1.36 g/cm^3

1) Density of gasoline = 0.748 g/cm^3

Density of the gasoline is less than the the density of corn syrup which means it will float in corn syrup.

2) Density of water = 1 g/cm^3

Density of the water is less than the the density of corn syrup which means it will float in corn syrup.

3) Density of honey = 1.45 g/cm^3

Density of the gasoline is more than the the density of corn syrup which means it will sink in corn syrup.

4) Density of titanium = 4.506 g/cm^3

Density of the titanium is more than the the density of corn syrup which means it will sink in corn syrup.

Tex, an 85.0 kilogram rodeo bull rider is thrown from the bull after a short ride. The 520. kilogram bull chases after Tex at 13
Julli [10]
The question above can be answered through using the concept of Conservation of Momentum which may be expressed as,
                 m1v1 + m2v2 = mTvT
where m1 and v1 are mass and initial velocity of Tex, 2s are that of the bull, and the Ts are the total. Then substituting,
                    (85 kg)(3 m/s) + (520 kg)(13 m/s) = (520 + 85)(vT)
The value of vT obtained from above equation is 11.6 m/s

What is the total energy q released in a single fusion reaction event for the equation given in the problem introduction? use c2
kkurt [141]

Answer:

4.3\cdot 10^{-12} J

Explanation:

The fusion reaction in this problem is

4^1_1H \rightarrow ^4_2He +2e^+

The total energy released in the fusion reaction is given by

\Delta E = c^2 \Delta m

where

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

\Delta m is the mass defect, which is the mass difference between the mass of the reactants and the mass of the products

For this fusion reaction we have:

m(^1_1H)=1.007825u is the mass of one nucleus of hydrogen

m(^4_2 He)=4.002603u is the mass of one nucleus of helium

So the mass defect is:

\Delta m =4m(^1_1 H)-m(^4_2 He)=4(1.007825u)-4.002603u=0.028697u

The conversion factor between atomic mass units and kilograms is

1u=1.66054\cdot 10^{-27}kg

So the mass defect is

\Delta m =(0.028697)(1.66054\cdot 10^{-27})=4.765\cdot 10^{-29}kg

And so, the energy released is:

\Delta E=(3.0\cdot 10^8)^2(4.765\cdot 10^{-29})=4.3\cdot 10^{-12} J
