Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

Heat of Fusion = 2.05 * 10^5 J / kg      watch the units.

Heat to actually melt the copper = 82 10^5 J

Formula

Mass of copper = Heat / Heat of Fusion

Solution

Mass of copper = 82*10^5 J / (2.05 * 10^5 J / kg)

Mass of copper = 40 kg

Notice that the kg is in the denominator of the second fraction. The rules of fractions would tell you the 1/1 / / 1 /kg . You take the right fraction and turn it upside down and multiply. 1 / 1 * kg/1 = 1* kg / 1*1 which is just kg.

Answer 40 kg of copper

Car A has a mass of 1,200 kg and is traveling at a rate of 22 km/hr. It collides with car B. Car B has a mass of 1,900 kg and is
anastassius [24]

The car A has a mass of 1200 kg.

The car B has the mass of 1900 kg.

It is given that velocity of car  A is given as 22 Km/hr

The car B has the velocity of 25 Km/hr.

Let the mass of two bodies are denoted as  m_{1} \ and\ m_{2}

Let the velocity of cars A and B are denoted as v_{1} \ and\ v_{2}

The momentum before collision is-

                                                  p_{i} =m_{1} v_{1} +m_{2} v_{2}

[Here p stand for momentum.]

We are asked to calculate the final momentum of the system after collision.

The answer of the question is based law of conservation of  linear momentum.

As per law of conservation of linear momentum the sum total linear momentum for an isolated system is always constant.Hence irrespective of the type of collision[elastic and inelastic],the momentum of the system is always constant which is a universal truth.

Let after the collision the velocity of A and B are v'_{1} \ and\ v'_{2}

Hence the final momentum of the system is-

                                                        p_{f} = m_{1} v'_{1} +m_{2} v'_{2}

As per the law of conservation of linear momentum, the initial and final momentum must be equal i.e      

                              p_{i} =p_{f}

                               m_{1} v_{1} +m_{2}v_{2} =m_{1} v'_{1} +m_{2} v'_{2}

Hence the option A  is right.
