Answer:

11.48 m

Explanation:

A brick starts from rest and gains a speed of 15 m/s and accelerates at 9.8 m/s^2

u = 0

v= 15

a= 9.8

s= ?

V^2 = U^2 + 2as

15^2 = 0^2 + 2 × 9.8×s

225= 19.6s

s= 225/19.6

s = 11.48m

Hence the brick will fall 11.48 m

How loudness of a sound wave depends on the intensity of the sound wave?

Anestetic [448]

Loudness of a sound wave is directly proportional to the intensity of the sound wave. In other words, when one increases, other also increases and vice-versa

A certain quantity of steam has a temperature of 100.0 oC. To convert this steam into ice at 0.0 oC, energy in the form of heat

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

2452.79432 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of ice

$L_s$ = Latent heat of steam

$s_w$ = Specific heat of water

$L_i$ = Latent heat of ice

v = Velocity of ice

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature

Amount of heat required for steam

$Q_1=mL_s\\\Rightarrow Q_1=m(2.256\times 10^6)$

Heat released from water at 100 °C

$Q_2=ms_w\Delta T\\\Rightarrow Q_2=m4186\times (100-0)\\\Rightarrow Q_2=m0.4186\times 10^6$

Heat released from water at 0 °C

$Q_3=mL_i\\\Rightarrow Q_3=m(333.5\times 10^3)\\\Rightarrow Q_3=m(0.3335\times 10^6)$

Total heat released is

$Q=Q_1+Q_2+Q_3\\\Rightarrow Q=m(2.256\times 10^6)+m0.4186\times 10^6+m(0.3335\times 10^6)\\\Rightarrow Q=3008100m$

The kinetic energy of the bullet will balance the heat

$K=Q\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv^2=3008100m\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 3008100}\\\Rightarrow v=2452.79432\ m/s$

The velocity of the ice would be 2452.79432 m/s

nlexa [21]

Answer:

ω = 380π rad/s

Explanation:

The formula for the angular frequency is the oscillation frequency f (hertz) multiplied by 2π

ω = 2πf

then

ω = 2π(190)

ω = 380π rad/s

Two identical stones are thrown from the top of a tall building. Stone 1 is thrown vertically downward with an initial speed v,

Molodets [167]

If the resistance of the Air is ignored, we can use the theory given by Galileo in which he warned that the thermal velocity of a body in free fall was given by

$v= \frac{1}{2}gt$

Where

g = Gravitational acceleration

t = time

As we can see the speed of objects in free fall is indifferent to the position that is launched (as long as the resistance of the air is ignored) or its mass.

Both bodies will end with the same thermal speed.
