The moon is not in the Earth's shadow. Not even a tiny bit. So it's just a plain old Full Moon.

Suppose you pour 0.250 kg of 20.0°C water into a 0.600 kg aluminum pan off the stove with a temperature of 173°C. Assume that th

Answer:

$T_f=5.0116^{\circ}C$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of water, $m_w=0.25\ kg$

initial temperature of water, $T_i_w=20^{\circ}C$

initial temperature of pan, $T_i_p=173^{\circ}C$

mass of pan, $m_p=0.6\ kg$

mass of water evapourated, $m_v=0.03\ kg$

specific heat of water, $c_w=4186\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}$

specific heat of aluminium pan, $c_a=900\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}$

latent heat of vapourization, $L=2256000\ J.kg^{-1}$

<u>Using the equation of heat:</u>

<em>Here, initially certain mass of water is vapourised first and then the remaining mass of water comes in thermal equilibrium with the pan.</em>

$m_p.c_a.(T_{ip}-T_f)=m_v.L+(m_w-m_v).c_w.(T_f-T_{iw})$

$0.6\times 900\times (173-T_f)=0.03\times 2256000+(0.25-0.03)\times 4186\times (T_f-20)$

$T_f=5.0116^{\circ}C$

vA 61.2-kg circus performer is fired from a cannon that is elevated at an angle of 57.8 ° above the horizontal. The cannon uses

dsp73

Answer:

The effective spring constant of the firing mechanism is 1808N/m.

Explanation:

First, we can use kinematics to obtain the initial velocity of the performer. Since we know the angle at which he was launched, the horizontal distance and the time in which it's traveled, we can calculate the speed by:

$v_0_x=\frac{x}{t}\\ \\v_0\cos\theta=\frac{x}{t}\\\\v_0=\frac{x}{t\cos\theta}$

(This is correct because the horizontal motion has acceleration zero). Then:

$v_0=\frac{20.8m}{(2.60s)\cos57.8\°}\\\\v_0=15.0m/s$

Now, we can use energy to obtain the spring constant of the firing mechanism. By the conservation of mechanical energy, considering the instant in which the elastic band is at its maximum stretch as t=0, and the instant in which the performer flies free of the bands as final time, we have:

$E_0=E_f\\\\U_e=K\\\\\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\\implies k=\frac{mv^2}{x^2}$

Then, plugging in the given values, we obtain:

$k=\frac{(61.2kg)(15.0m/s)^2}{(2.76m)^2}\\\\k=1808N/m$

Finally, the effective spring constant of the firing mechanism is 1808N/m.

leonid [27]

Hello there!

For this:

1). Convert 10km to meters!
2). Convert the 30 minutes into seconds!

3). Use the following formula to solve for speed!

speed= distance/time

Note: The units should automatically work out to m/s. :)

My goal is to make sure you understand the problem, which is why I won't be giving you the answer. It'll be more work now, but less work in the future! :)

Hope this helped!
