Answer:

A horse pushes the ground in a backward direction. According to Newton’s third law of motion, a reaction force is exerted on the horse in the forward direction. When the horse walks in the forward direction (with the cart attached to it), it exerts a force in the backward direction on the Earth. An equal force in the opposite direction (forward direction) is applied on the horse by the Earth. This force moves the horse and the cart forward. As a result, the cart moves forward.

To sterilize a 48.0-g glass baby bottle, we must raise its temperature from 16.0°C to 94.0°C. How much heat transfer is required

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

3144.96 J

Explanation:

Heat transfer is,

$q=mc\Delta t$

As we know that the specific heat of the glass is,

$c=0.840J/g^{\circ}C$

Given that the mass of bottle is 48 g.

And the initial temperature is 16°C and the final temperature is 94°C.

Therefore,

$q=48\times 0.840(94^{\circ}-16^{\circ})\\q=48\times 0.840\times 78^{\circ}\\q=3144.96 J$

A dog uses 300 N of force to run 50 m with a speed of 5.9 m/s. How much power does he expand

balu736 [363]

Answer:

1.47kW

Explanation:

F = 300N, s = 50m, v = 5.9m/s

P = W/t

= (F× )/t

= F × v
