A sample of 2.50 kg of water is held at a temperature of 100°C. How much energy must be added to completely turn the liquid wate

Answer:

Explanation:

Since 100C is the boiling temperature for water, for this problem we don't need to calculate the energy needed to get to the boiling point, just the heat or energy needed to vaporize the water to steam at 100C.

The formula for this is  q=m(delta)

q is Joules of heat needed to vaporize the water to steam at 100C

m is mass in grams

Delta is in Joules per gram and can be looked up for water at this temperature. Here, it is approximately 2260J/g. This online lecture should help ease understanding: https://cabrillo.instructure.com/courses/10267/modules/items/256219

Therefore...

q=2.5g (2260J/g)= 5650J = 5.65kJ

I do not do Physics tutoring but am happy to answer questions here.

A pitcher throws a softball toward home plate. When the ball hits the catcher’s mitt, its horizontal velocity is 32 meters/secon
n200080 [17]
To calculate the force of impact F, first lets calculate the acceleration a of the ball: 

a=v/t where v is the velocity of the ball and t is time

a=32/0.8=40 m/s²

To get the force F we need the Newtons second law:

F=m*a where m is the mass of the ball and a is the acceleration.

F=m*a= 0.2*40 = 8 N

So the impact force is F= 8 N.

An electric pump rated 1.5 KW lifts 200kg of water through a vertical height of 6m in 10 secs: way is the efficiency of the pump
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

80%

Explanation:

Efficiency = Power output / Power input × 100 %

To calculate efficiency we need to find power output of electric pump.

We can use,

Work done = Energy change

Work done per second = Energy change per second

Work done per second = Power

Therefore, Power = Energy change per second

                              = Change in potential energy of water per second

                              =mgh / t

                              = 200× 10×6 / 10

                              = 1200 W = 1.2 kW

Now use the first equation to find efficiency,

Efficiency = \frac{1.2}{1.5} × 100%

                = 80 %

How can a global dependence on fossil fuels have associated social costs?
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Global dependence on fossil fuels has associated social costs.

Explanation:

Increased dependence on fossil fuels reduces their availability. When the demand is high and the availability is low, the price rises. Not every nation would then be able to afford buying fossil fuels at such high costs.

Developing and underdeveloped countries would then be left behind and only the wealthy nations would be able to afford fossil fuel purchase. This would be the immediate impact of global dependence on fossil fuels.

Fossil fuels are mainly coal, petroleum and natural gas. Since fossil fuels are non-renewable in nature over exploitation may lead to fossil fuels getting exhausted.

Consider a block on frictionless ice. Starting from rest, the block travels a distance din
sweet [91]

Answer:

<em>The distance is now 4d</em>

Explanation:

<u>Mechanical Force</u>

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

F = m.a

Where a is the acceleration of the object.

The acceleration can be calculated by solving for a:

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

Once we know the acceleration, we can calculate the distance traveled by the block as follows:

\displaystyle d = vo.t+\frac{at^2}{2}

If the block starts from rest, vo=0:

\displaystyle d = \frac{at^2}{2}

Substituting the value of the acceleration:

\displaystyle d = \frac{\frac{F}{m}t^2}{2}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle d = \frac{Ft^2}{2m}

When a force F'=4F is applied and assuming the mass is the same, the new acceleration is:

\displaystyle a'=\frac{4F}{m}

And the distance is now:

\displaystyle d' = \frac{4Ft^2}{2m}

Dividing d'/d:

\displaystyle \frac{d' }{d}=\frac{\frac{4Ft^2}{2m}}{\frac{Ft^2}{2m}}

Simplifying:

\displaystyle \frac{d' }{d}=4

Thus:

d' = 4d

The distance is now 4d
