Assuming that all the bullet’s energy heats the paraffin, its final temperature is 27.1 degree C. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is temperature?</h3>

Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of the material.

The energy of the bullet E = 1/2 mv²

E = 1/2 x 10 x 10⁻³ x (2000)²

E = 2 x 10⁴ J

This heat is used in heating the paraffin

E = m x c ΔT = m x c (Tfinal -Tinitial)

2 x 10⁴ J = 1 x 2.8 x 10³ x (Tfinal -20)

Tfinal = 27.1°C

Thus, the final temperature is 27.1 degree C. The correct option is D.

How could you determine the instantaneous speed during a<br> trip?
Fiesta28 [93]
Look at your speedometer for say, a couple of seconds. Depends on whether or not you are moving on average at a constant speed (speedo won't change much) or whether you're in a polluting traffic jam/queue in which case the speedo will go up and down like a yo yo. to determine the speed, you'd probably need to plot the speed on the speedo against the times at which the speedo speeds were read from the speedo.

An earthquake is a natural rapid shaking of the _______ caused by the release of stored energy in rocks
REY [17]

Answer:

An earthquake is a natural rapid shaking of the tectonic plates caused by the release of stored energy in rocks

Explanation:

there are tectonic plates and the earthquake is caused by that energy the plates are always moving so it might get stuck in between each other and store the energy.

ou purchase a rectangular piece of metal that has dimen- sions 5.0 * 15.0 * 30.0 mm and mass 0.0158 kg. The seller tells you tha
Natalija [7]

Answer: 7022.2kg/m³, yes, I was cheated

Explanation:

Density of an object is defined as the ratio of the mass of the object to its volume. Mathematically;

Density = Mass/Volume

Note that the unit of both mass and volume must be standard unit.

Given mass = 0.0158kg

Dimension of the metal = 5mm×15mm×30mm

Note that 1mm = 0.001m

The volume of the metal will be

0.005×0.015×0.03

= 0.00000225m³

Density = 0.0158/0.00000225

Average density of the metal = 7022.2kg/m³

Since the standard density of Gold is 19,320kg/m³ and is higher than the density prescribed for me, it shows the I was cheated.

A grindstone of radius 4.0 m is initially spinning with an angular speed of 8.0 rad/s. The angular speed is then increased to 12
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: 6.36

Explanation:

Given

Radius of grindstone, r = 4 m

Initial angular speed of grindstone, w(i) = 8 rad/s

Final angular speed of the grindstone, w(f) = 12 rad/s

Time used, t = 4 s

Angular acceleration of the grinder,

α = Δw / t

α = w(f) - w(i) / t

α = (12 - 8) / 4

α = 4/4 = 1 rad/s²

Number of complete revolution in 4s =

Δθ = w(i).t + 1/2.α.t²

Δθ = 8 * 4 + 1/2 * 1 * 4²

Δθ = 32 + 1/2 * 16

Δθ = 32 + 8

Δθ = 40 rad/s

40 rad/s = 40/2π rpm = 6.36 rpm

Therefore, the grindstone does 6.36 revolutions during the 4 s interval
