Thermal energy in the form of fire is generated by the combustion of fuel. Due to the tendency of hot air to rise upward, the heat generated rises to fill the space of the balloon. One this space is full of trapped hot air, the heat's tendency to rise causes the hot air balloon to be lifted into the air.

Sample Response: Convection is the method of thermal energy that occurs in hot air balloons. Thermal energy is transferred when the air above the flame becomes warm and less dense, and rises. Cool, dense air sinks and takes the place of the warm air that rises. The cool air is warmed by the flame, becomes less dense, and rises. This cycle continuously warms up the air in the balloon.

A toy car is given an initial velocity of 5.0 m/s and experiences a constant acceleration of 2.0 m/s656-03-02-00-00_files/i02900
Whitepunk [10]
It would be 17 m/s

If we use

V2 = V1 + a*t
Sub in 5 for v1
2m/s*2 for a
And
6 for t
That should give you the answer.

Imagine you derive the following expression by analyzing the physics of a particular system: v2=v20+2ax. The problem requires so
lisabon 2012 [21]

As per kinematics equation we are given that

v^2 = v_o^2 + 2ax

now we are given that

a = 2.55 m/s^2

v_0 = 21.8 m/s

v = 0

now we need to find x

from above equation we have

0^2 = 21.8^2 + 2(2.55)x

0 = 475.24 + 5.1 x

x = 93.2 m

so it will cover a distance of 93.2 m

A man stands on his balcony, 130 feet above the ground. He looks at the ground, with his sight line forming an angle of 70° with
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

d =  380 feet

Explanation:

Height of man = perpendicular= 130 feet

Angle of depression = ∅ = 70 °

distance to bus stop from man = hypotenuse = d = 130 sec∅

As sec ∅ = 1 / cos∅

so d = 130 sec∅    or d = 130 / cos∅

d = 130 / cos(70°)

d =  380 feet

Two children stand on a platform at the top of a curving slide next to a backyard swimming pool. At the same moment the smaller
victus00 [196]

1.

Answer:

a) It is less

Explanation:

By energy conservation we can say that initial potential energy of both child must be equal to the final kinetic energy of the two child.

Since initially they are at same height so we will say that initial potential energy will be given as

mgH and MgH

so the child with greater mass has more energy and hence smaller child will reach with smaller kinetic energy

2.

Answer:

b. The two speeds are equal.

Explanation:

As we know by mechanical energy conservation law we have

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

v = \sqrt{2gh}

since both child starts at same height so here they both will reach the bottom at same speed

3.

Answer:

c. The two accelerations are equal

Explanation:

Since we know that average acceleration of the motion is given as

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{\Delta t}

since here initial and final speeds are same so they both must have same average acceleration here.

In lab, your instructor generates a standing wave using a thin string of length L = 1.65 m fixed at both ends. You are told that
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The maximum transverse speed of the bead is 0.4 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the Amplitude of the travelling wave is

A = 3.65 mm

Now the speed of the travelling wave is

v_x = 13.5 m/s

now we know that distance of first antinode from one end is 27.5 cm

so length of the loop of the standing wave is given as

\frac{\lambda}{4} = 27.5 cm

\lambda = 110 cm

now we have

N = \frac{2L}{\lambda}

N = \frac{2(1.65)}{1.10}

N = 3

now we have

R = 2A sin(kx)

R = 2(3.65) sin(\frac{2\pi}{1.10}x)

R = 7.3 sin(1.82 \pi x)

now at x = 13.8 cm

R = 7.3 sin(1.82 \pi (0.138))

R = 5.18 mm

now we have

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

f = \frac{13.5}{1.1}

f = 12.27 Hz

now maximum speed is given as

v_y = R\omega

v_y = (5.18 \times 10^{-3})(2\pi(12.27))

v_y = 0.4 m/s
