W=ΔKE , W=-5000j
KEinitial=(1/2)mv² , KEfinal=0j
ΔKE=-(1/2)mv²
-5000=-(1/2)(100kg)v²
v=10 m/s
Given:
m = 555 g, the mass of water in the calorimeter
ΔT = 39.5 - 20.5 = 19 °C, temperature change
c = 4.18 J/(°C-g), specific heat of water
Assume that all generated heat goes into heating the water.
Then the energy released is
Q = mcΔT
= (555 g)*(4.18 J/(°C-g)*(19 °C)
= 44,078.1 J
= 44,100 J (approximately)
Answer: 44,100 J
Black hole, it sucks in pretty much everything in its path
