The specific heat capacity of iron is greater than that of lead hence the iron will melt the ice more than the lead.

<h3>What is the specific heat capacity?</h3>

The specific heat capacity refers to the amount of heat that is required to raise the temperature of 1Kg of a body by 1 K.

We know that the specific heat capacity of iron is greater than that of lead hence the iron will melt the ice more than the lead.

Acceleration and Force
olga55 [171]

Answer:

I'm pretty sure its 3m/s^2 for the acceleration but I don't know the force part sorry .

Explanation:

15m/s - 0m/s divided by 5 s = 3m/s

I'm no expert or anything so I could be wrong but this is the best I can give you. Sorry

On the asteroid Cere, the acceleration due to gravity is about 0.27 m/s^2. How long would it take a ball to fall to the ground i
KiRa [710]

Answer:

F. 25.82 s

Explanation:

Given:

Δy = 90 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 0.27 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

90 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (0.27 m/s²) t²

t = 25.82 s

A spinning ice skater will speed up if he brings his arms close to his body. Which of the following statements explains this phe
xxMikexx [17]
A. Angular momentum is always conserved would be the correct answer.

This is because like linear momentum (mvmv), angular momentum (r×mvr×mv) is a conserved quantity, where rr is the vector from the center of rotation. For a skater holding a static pose, for each particle making up her body, the contribution in magnitude to the total angular momentum is given by mirivimirivi. Thus bringing in her arms reduces riri for those particles. In order to conserve angular momentum, there is then an increase in the angular velocity.

hope this helps!

What are some ways scientists can study the seafloor?
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: A device records the time it takes sound waves to travel from the surface to the ocean floor and back again. Sound waves travel through water at a known speed. Once scientists know the travel time of the wave, they can calculate the distance to the ocean floor.

A 2000 kg car accelerates from 0 to 25 m / s in 21.0 s. How much is the average power delivered by the motor? (1 hp = 746 W)
mash [69]

Answer: 40.2 hp

Explanation:

The mass of the car is 2000kg.

in 21 seconds, it accelerates from 0m/s to 25m/s, so the average acceleration is:

a = (25m/s)/(21s) = 1.2 m/s^2

We know that force = mass*acceleration, then:

F = 2000kg*1.2m/s^2 = 2400N.

Now, the Power can be written as:

P = W/t where W is work = F*d (force per distance) and t is time.

then we have:

P = (F*d)/t and d/t  is the average velocity, and we know the velocity v = 25m/s, so the average velocity will be (1/2)*25m/s = 12.5m/s

P = F*12.5m/s

and the force is F = 2400N

P = 2400 N*12.5m/s = 30,000 W

and we know that 1hp = 746 W

then, P = (30,000/746) hp = 40.2 hp
