You then measure Polly's internal temperature to be 13oC, which is quite a drop from the normal human body temperature of 37oC.

And weighing Polly, you find her mass to be 60 kg. Now, subtracting the heat warming the water from the surrounding environment, we assume Polly gave up only 5000 kJ of thermal energy to warm the bath. With these numbers, determine Polly's specific heat in units J/(kgoC).

Answer:

The specific heat is 3.47222 J/kg°C.

Explanation:

Given that,

Temperature = 13°C

Temperature = 37°C

Mass = 60 Kg

Energy = 5000 J

We need to calculate the specific heat

Using formula of energy

Q= mc\Delta T

c =\dfrac{Q}{m\Delta T}

Put the value into the formula

c=\dfrac{5000}{60\times(37-13)}

c=3.47222\ J/kg^{\circ}C

Hence, The specific heat is 3.47222 J/kg°C.

. A little car has a maximum acceleration of 2.57 m/s2. What is the new maximum acceleration of the little car if it tows anothe
valkas [14]

Answer:

a'=1.285\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Let m be the mass of a little car and m' be the mass of another car.

We know that,

Force = mass × acceleration

ATQ,

m × a = 2m × a'

a = 2 × a'

a'=\dfrac{a}{2}\\\\a'=\dfrac{2.57}{2}\\\\a'=1.285\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of another little car is equal to 1.285\ m/s^2.

A mass m slides down a frictionless ramp and approaches a frictionless loop with radius R. There is a section of the track with
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

   h = 2 R (1 +μ)

Explanation:

This exercise must be solved in parts, first let us know how fast you must reach the curl to stay in the

let's use the mechanical energy conservation agreement

starting point. Lower, just at the curl

       Em₀ = K = ½ m v₁²

final point. Highest point of the curl

        Em_{f} = U = m g y

Find the height y = 2R

      Em₀ = Em_{f}

      ½ m v₁² = m g 2R

       v₁ = √ 4 gR

Any speed greater than this the body remains in the loop.

In the second part we look for the speed that must have when arriving at the part with friction, we use Newton's second law

X axis

    -fr = m a                      (1)

Y Axis  

      N - W = 0

      N = mg

the friction force has the formula

     fr = μ  N

     fr = μ m g

    we substitute 1

    - μ mg = m a

     a = - μ g

having the acceleration, we can use the kinematic relations

    v² = v₀² - 2 a x

    v₀² = v² + 2 a x

the length of this zone is x = 2R

    let's calculate

     v₀ = √ (4 gR + 2 μ g 2R)

     v₀ = √4gR( 1 + μ)

this is the speed so you must reach the area with fricticon

finally have the third part we use energy conservation

starting point. Highest on the ramp without rubbing

     Em₀ = U = m g h

final point. Just before reaching the area with rubbing

     Em_{f} = K = ½ m v₀²

      Em₀ = Em_{f}

     mgh = ½ m 4gR(1 + μ)

       h = ½ 4R (1+ μ)

       h = 2 R (1 +μ)

A ball is thrown with a velocity of 35 meters per second at an angle of 30° above the horizontal. which quantity has a magnitude
enot [183]
The quantity that has a magnitude of zero when the ball is at the highest point in its trajectory is the vertical velocity.

In fact, the motion of the ball consists of two separate motions:
- the horizontal motion, on the x-axis, which is a uniform motion with constant velocity v_x=v_0 cos 30^{\circ}, where v_0=35 m/s
- the vertical motion, on the y-axis, which is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.81 m/s^2 directed downwards, and with initial velocity v_y=v_= sin 30^{\circ}. Due to the presence of the acceleration g on the vertical direction (pointing in the opposite direction of the initial vertical velocity), the vertical velocity of the ball decreases as it goes higher, up to a point where it becomes zero and it reverses its direction: when the vertical velocity becomes zero, the ball has reached its maximum height.
