4. an object (object a) with a mass of 500 kg is traveling in a straight line from west to east at a constant velocity of 34 m/s. object a encounters a headwind blowing with a force of 25 n for six minutes and then proceeds to collide with a stationary object (object b) with a mass of 300 kg, thereby reducing the velocity of object a to 4 m/s. what is the final velocity of object b?

Asmall metal bar, whose initial temperature was 10° c, is dropped into a large container of boiling water. how long will it take the bar to reach 70° c if it is known that its temperature increases 2° during the first second? (the boiling temperature for water is 100° c. round your answer to one decimal place.) sec how long will it take the bar to reach 98° c? (round your answer to one decimal place.)

When conducting an investigation to determine which type of fertilizer produces the most flowers on a plant, which variable would be graphed on the x-axis once you collected the data? a. type of fertilizer b. amount of flowers c. amount of water d. number of days that the plants grew

The heater element of a 120 v toaster is a 5.4 m length of nichrome wire, whose diameter is 0.48 mm. the resistivity of nichrome at the operating temperature of the toaster is 1.3 × 10-6 ω·m. the toaster is operated at a voltage of 120 v. (a) what is the power drawn by the toaster? (b) if the cost of electricity is 12 ¢ per kilowatt-hour, and it takes 2 minutes to toast bread, how much does it cost for toasted bread? (c) when the heater element is at room temperature, is the resistivity in the nichrome wire greater than, less than, or equal to it’s resistivity when at operating temperature? explain.
