$\huge\underline{\underline{\boxed{\mathbb {EXPLANATION}}}}$

The heat capacity is given by the expression:

$\longrightarrow \sf{\triangle Q= m \triangle C \triangle T}$

$\longrightarrow \sf{Q= \: Heat}$

$\longrightarrow \sf{M= \: Mass}$

$\longrightarrow \sf{C= \: Specific \: Heat}$

$\longrightarrow \sf{T= \: Temperature}$

$\huge\underline{\underline{\boxed{\mathbb {ANSWER:}}}}$

$\leadsto$ When the $\bm{heat}$ is measured in the calorimeter, we obtain a value, and since we know the mass of the material and we control the change in $\bm{temperature}$ , we can then determine the specific heat "C" by simply remplazing in the expression.

Given that average speed is distance traveled divided by time, determine the values of m and n when the time it takes a beam of

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

$5,2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed of light $C=3.0×10^8 m/s.$

Generally the equation for Average Speed is mathematically given by

$V_{avg}=\frac{d}{t}$

Where

d=Distance between the Earth and the sun

$d=1.5*10^11m$

Therefore

$t=\frac{d}{V_{avg}}$

$t=\frac{1.5*10^11m}{3.0×10^8 m/s.}$

$t=5*10^2s$

Since m and n is given in the form of

$m*10^n$

Therefore

$m=5 & n=2$

If 20 beats are produced within a single second, which of the following frequencies could possibly be held by two sound waves tr

zhuklara [117]

The correct choice is

D. 22 Hz and 42 Hz.

In fact, the beat frequency is given by the difference between the frequencies of the two waves:

$f_B = |f_1 -f_2|$

In this problem, the beat frequency is $f_B=20 Hz$ , therefore the only pair of frequencies that gives a difference equal to 20 Hz is

D. 22 Hz and 42 Hz.

1. A 100-kg crate is pulled across a warehouse floor using a rope with a force of 250 N at an angle of 45o from the horizontal.

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

(a) The net force is 80.394 N

The acceleration of the crate is 0.804 m/s²

(b) the final velocity of the crate is 5.02 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the crate, m = 100 kg

applied force, F = 250 N

angle of inclination, θ = 45°

coefficient of friction, μ = 0.12

Applied force in y-direction, $F_y = Fsin \theta = 250sin45 = 176.78 \ N$

Applied force in x-direction, $F_x = Fcos \theta = 250cos45 = 176.78 \ N$

The normal force is calculated as;

N + Fy -W = 0

N = W - Fy

N = (100 x 9.8) - 176.78

N = 980 - 176.78 = 803.22 N

The frictional force is given by;

Fk = μN

Fk = 0.12 x 803.22

Fk = 96.386 N

(a) The net force is given by;

$F_{net} = F_x - F_k\\\\F_{net} = 176.78-96.386\\\\F_{net} = 80.394 \ N$

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

$a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}\\\\ a = \frac{80.394}{100}\\\\ a = 0.804 \ m/s^2$

(b) the velocity of the crate after 5.0 s

$F = ma= \frac{m(v-u)}{t} \\\\Ft =m(v-u)\\\\v-u = \frac{Ft}{m}\\\\ v = \frac{Ft}{m} + u\\\\v = \frac{F_{net}*t}{m} + u\\\\v = \frac{80.394*5}{100} + 1\\\\v = 5.02 \ m/s$
