The specific heat of the metal, assuming no heat is exchanged with the surroundings is 2140 J/(kg•K).

<h3>Specific heat capacity of the metal</h3>

The specific heat capacity of the metal is determined from the principle of conservation of energy.

energy lost by the metal = energy gained by aluminum + energy gained by water

Q = mcΔθ

where;

  • m is mass (kg)
  • c is specific heat capacity
  • Δθ is change in temperature

0.425c(100 - 40) = 0.1(900)(40 - 15) + 0.5(4186)(40 - 15)

25.5c = 2250 + 52,325

c = 54,575/25.5

c = 2140 J/(kg•K)

Work = force * distance. 
<span>You must produce twice as much energy as we are lifting the weight twice as high. </span>
<span>But because you aren't increasing the force, you need to increase the length of the ramp instead. </span>
<span>The new length will be twice as great as the previous length. </span>
<span>So 8 metres is required. </span>

7. A force of 100 N acting on a body gives it a speed of 200 m/s in 2
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Choice a. 1 kg, assuming that all other forces on the object (if any) are balanced.

Explanation:

By Newton's Second Law,

\displaystyle a = \frac{\Sigma F}{m},

where

  • a is the acceleration of the object in \text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2},
  • \Sigma F is the net force on the object in Newtons, and
  • m is the mass of the object in kilograms.

As a result,

\displaystyle m = \frac{\Sigma F}{a}.

Assume that all other forces on this object are balanced. The net force on the object will be 100\;\text{N}. The net force is constant. Acceleration should also be constant and the same as the average acceleration in the two seconds.

<h3>What is the average acceleration of this object?</h3>

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Acceleration} &= \text{Average Acceleration}=\frac{\text{Change in Velocity}}{\text{Time Taken}}\end{aligned}.

\displaystyle {a} = \frac{200\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-1}}{2\;\text{s}}=100\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2}.

<h3>Apply Newton's Second Law to find the mass of the object.</h3>

\displaystyle m = \frac{\Sigma F}{a} = \frac{100\;\text{N}}{100\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2}} = 1\;\text{kg}.

Com que rapidez estará sendo feito trabalho elétrico num resistor de 10 ohms, percorrido por uma corrente elétrica de 5 A? Qual
34kurt

Poder = (resistencia) x (corrente)²

Poder = (10 ohms) x (5 A)²

<em>Poder = 250 watts </em>(250 Joule por segundo)

2 horas = 7,200 segundos

Energia = (250 joule/seg) x (7,200 seg)

<em>Energia = 1,800,000 Joules</em>

In deep space, there is very little friction. Once they launch a probe into deep space, where there are no external forces actin
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

move at constant velocity.

Explanation:

Newton's first law (also known as law of inertia) states that:

"when the net force acting on an object is zero, the object will keep its state of rest or if it is moving, it will continue moving at constant velocity".

In the case of the probe, friction in deep space is negligible, therefore when the engine is shut down, there are no more forces acting on the probe: the net force therefore will be zero, so the probe will move at constant velocity.
