Given:
Water, 2 kilograms
T1 = 20 degrees Celsius, T2 = 100 degrees Celsius.  

Required:
Heat produced  

Solution:
Q (heat) = nRT = nR(T2 = T1)
Q (heat) = 2 kilograms (4.184 kiloJoules per kilogram Celsius) (100 degrees Celsius – 20 degrees Celsius)
<u>Q (heat) = 669.42 Joules
</u>This is the amount of heat produced in boiling 2 kg of water.

At the same moment, one rock is dropped and one is theown downwand with an iniial velocily of 29 us frm op of a building that is
Helen [10]

Answer:

The thrown rock will strike the ground 2.42s earlier than the dropped rock.

Explanation:

<u>Known Data</u>

  • y_{i}=300m
  • y_{f}=0m
  • v_{iD}=0m/s
  • v_{iT}=-29m/s, it is negative as is directed downward

<u>Time of the dropped Rock</u>

We can use y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}, to find the total time of fall, so 0=300m-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})t_{D}^{2}}{2}, then clearing for t_{D}.

t_{D}=\sqrt[2]{\frac{300m}{4.9m/s^{2}}} =\sqrt[2]{61.22s^{2}} =7.82s

<u>Time of the Thrown Rock</u>

We can use y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}, to find the total time of fall, so 0=300-29t_{T}-\frac{(9.8)t_{T}^{2}}{2}, then, 0=-4.9t_{T}^{2}-29t_{T}+300, as it is a second-grade polynomial, we find that its positive root is t_{T}=5.4s

Finally, we can find how much earlier does the thrown rock strike the ground, so t_{E}=t_{D}-t_{T}=7.82s-5.4s=2.42s

the pressure of gas in a cylinder is 70 kilopascals. if the volume of the cylinder is reduced from 8.0 liters to 4.0 liters, wha
Olegator [25]
By Boyle's law:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

70*8 = P<span>₂*4

</span>P<span>₂*4 = 70*8
</span>
P<span>₂ = 70*8/4 = 140
</span>
P<span>₂ = 140 kiloPascals.</span>

Can lamp that works on a 2.5 v work on a 1.12 v ?​
12345 [234]

Answer:

Explanation:

Thinking about the logics it can but it may be dim because 1.12 is lower than 2,5v so this will mean u lamp may not work or may work very dimely due to the low voltage it is receiving.

Which objects will likely have the smallest gravitational force between them?
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

A. Two tennis balls that are near each other  

Explanation:

The formula for gravitational force (F) between two objects is

F = \dfrac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{d^{2} }

where m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the two objects, d is the distance between their centres, and G is the gravitational constant.

Thus, two objects that are far from each other will have a smaller gravitational force. We can eliminate Options C and D.

If the objects are at the same distance, those with the smaller mass will have a smaller force.

The mass of a tennis ball is 57 g.

The mass of a soccer ball is 430 g.

Two tennis balls that are near each other will have a smaller gravitational attraction.
