Lighting a match results in light and heat. Since energy was not created by the match, what transformation took place?

Physics

Chemical energy stored in the compounds caked on the head of the match, and later the
chemical energy stored in the wood, was released in the form of heat and light when the
chemical compounds got hot enough.

At what temperature (degrees Fahrenheit) is the Fahrenheit scale reading equal to (a) 2 times that of the Celsius and (b) 1/4 ti
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

(a) F = 320

(b) = F = -5.1625

Explanation:

The formula that converts degree Celsius (C) to degree Fahrenheit (F) is:

F = 1.8C + 32

Solving (a): F = 2C

Substitute 2C for F in the above equation

F = 1.8C + 32

2C = 1.8C + 32

Collect like terms

2C - 1.8C = 32

0.2C = 32

Multiply both sides by 5

5 * 0.2C = 32 * 5

C = 160

Recall that F = 2C

F = 2 * 160

F = 320

Solving (b): F = ¼C

Substitute ¼C for F in the above formula

F = 1.8C + 32

¼C = 1.8C + 32

Convert fraction to decimal

0.25C = 1.8C + 32

Collect like terms

0.25C - 1.8C = 32

-1.55C = 32

Divide both sides by -1.55

C = 32/(-1.55)

C = -32/1.55

C = -20.65

Recall that: F = ¼C

F = -¼ * 20.65

F = -5.1625

1. 1500j of work was done to move a box 20m. What force was applied to the box ?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

1. 75N

2. 67,983 J (=67.98 kJ)

Explanation:

1. Work = Force x Distance

we are given that Work = 1,500J and Distance = 20m

hence,

Work = Force x Distance

1,500 = Force x 20

Force = 1,500 ÷ 20 = 75N

2. Potential Energy, PE = mass x gravity x change in height

we are given that mass = 165 kg and change in height = 42m

assuming that gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

Potential Energy, PE = mass x gravity x change in height

Potential Energy, PE = 165 x 9.81 x 42 = 67,983 J (=67.98 kJ)
