<span>Answer: 1st, identify the givens and the unknown - this will give you parameter of what concept and formula are you going to use. Given: m= 1200kg v initial = 95km/hr v final = 0 2nd, focus on the units - in most cases units speak for the concept the unit of the unknown is kcal, thus its the unit of energy or work so, W = ? 3rd, provide the appropriate formula - give formula or equation that the given and the unknown are present since W = delta K.E =delta P.E W= 0.5m( vf^2 - vi^2) ---> best formula 4th, Substitute the given to the formula since 1 Joule = 1Nm 1N = 1kgms^-2 1cal = 4.19 J we express first 95 km/hr to m/s 95km/hr x 1000m/1km x 1hr/3600sec = 26.39 m/sec W= 0.5(1200kg)[(0^2- (26.39m/sec)^2] W=600 kg(0 - 696.43m^2/s^2) W=600kg(-696.43m^2/s^2) W=417859.3Nm or 417859.3 J W = 417859.3 J x 1 cal /4.19 J W = 99,727.7 cal or 99.728 kcal</span>

The first notion of the number of molecules per atom <span>was calculated by Josef Loschmidt which he endeavored to complete in 1895. In his experiment, he determined the number of molecules in one cubic centimeter of gas under STP. this is equal to approx 2.6 x 10^19 molecules. The former is called "Loschmidt's Constant" instead.</span>

6. Name two ways in which Faraday's work affects your own life in the twenty-first century.<br><br>​
Gekata [30.6K]

He discovered electromagnetic induction

He found a way to cause an electric current, and that discovery was later applied to many devices we use today.

His inventions transformed the home, farm, and factory

. Electricity eliminated manual labor like pumping water, so that rural families no longer spent hours of their day hauling water to livestock or to the house. Automated systems for tasks like milking cows kept farmers from crippling their hands, and the threat of barn fires from knocked over oil lamps during early-morning milking decreased.
