Answer:
1.The calorie was originally defined as the amount of heat required at a pressure of 1 standard atmosphere to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1° Celsius. Since 1925 this calorie has been defined in terms of the joule, the definition since 1948 being that one calorie is equal to approximately 4.2 joules.
2.Boiling water at 100 degrees Celsius: 540 calories are needed to turn 1 gram (at 100 degrees Celsius) of water to steam.
Acceleration = change in velocity/time
= 40/5
=8m/s^2
Answer:
The International Space Station move at 7.22 km/s.
Explanation:
Orbital speed of satellite is given by
, where G is gravitational constant, M is mass of Earth and r is the distance to satellite from centre of Earth.
r = R + h = 6350 + 1400 = 7750 km = 7.75 x 10⁶ m
G = 6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²
M = 5.98 x 10²⁴ kg
Substituting

The International Space Station move at 7.22 km/s.
