<h2>Answer:</h2>

Insulator

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Going from top to bottom, carbon is the first element in the 4th group of periodic table. The properties vary from to to bottom as non metals to metals. Carbon being on the top has non metallic properties which makes it a bad conductor of heat and electricity. It has allotrpic forms in the form of Diamond and Graphite where diamond behaves as an insulator and graphite acts like semiconductor.

The children at the local park think the slide is too slow. There is too much fiction. What could you do to decrease the amount
igor_vitrenko [27]
In order to decrease the friction on the slide,
we could try some of these:

-- Install a drippy pipe across the top that keeps continuously
dripping olive oil on the top end of the slide.  The oil oozes
down the slide and keeps the whole slide greased.

-- Hire a man to spread a coat of butter on the whole slide,
every 30 minutes.

-- Spray the whole slide with soapy sudsy water, every 30 minutes.

-- Drill a million holes in the slide,and pump high-pressure air
through the holes.  Make the slide like an air hockey table.

-- Keep the slide very cold, and keep spraying it with a fine mist
of water.  The water freezes, and a thin coating of ice stays on
the slide.

-- Ask a local auto mechanic to please, every time he changes
the oil in somebody's car, to keep all the old oil, and once a week
to bring his old oil to the park, to spread on the slide.  If it keeps
the inside of a hot car engine slippery, it should do a great job
keeping a simple park slide slippery.

-- Keep a thousand pairs of teflon pants near the bottom of the ladder
at the beginning of the slide.  Anybody who wants to slide faster can
borrow a set of teflon pants, put them on before he uses the slide, and
return them when he's ready to go home from the park.

A 2100 g block is pushed by an external force against a spring (with a 22 N/cm spring constant) until the spring is compressed b
Vilka [71]

Answer:

6.5e-4 m

Explanation:

We need to solve this question using law of conservation of energy

Energy at the bottom of the incline= energy at the point where the block will stop

Therefore, Energy at the bottom of the incline consists of the potential energy stored in spring and gravitational potential energy=\frac{1}{2} kx^{2} +PE1

Energy at the point where the block will stop consists of only gravitational potential energy=PE2

Hence from Energy at the bottom of the incline= energy at the point where the block will stop

⇒\frac{1}{2} kx^{2} +PE1=PE2

⇒PE2-PE1=\frac{1}{2} kx^{2}

Also PE2-PE2=mgh

where m is the mass of block

g is acceleration due to gravity=9.8 m/s

h is the difference in height between two positions

⇒mgh=\frac{1}{2} kx^{2}

Given m=2100kg

k=22N/cm=2200N/m

x=11cm=0.11 m

∴2100*9.8*h=\frac{1}{2}*2200*0.11^{2}

⇒20580*h=13.31

⇒h=\frac{13.31}{20580}

⇒h=0.0006467m=6.5e-4

The gravitational potential energy of a particle of mass m moving under the influence of a fixed mass M is given by - , where G
djverab [1.8K]

-GMm/2r is the total energy of the mass m if it is in a circular orbit about mass M.

Given

A particle of mass m moving under the influence of a fixed mass's M, gravitational potential energy of formula  -GMm/r, where r is the separation between the masses and G is the gravitational constant of the universe.

As the Gravity Potential energy of particle = -GMm/r

Total energy of particle = Kinetic energy + Potential Energy

As we know that

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

Also, v is equals to square root of GM/r

v = √GM/r

Put the value of v in the formula of kinetic energy

We get,

Kinetic Energy = GMm/2r

Total Energy = GMm/2r + (-GMm/r)

                     = GMm/2r - GMm/r

                     = -GMm/2r

Hence, -GMm/2r is the total energy of the mass m if it is in a circular orbit about mass M.

Calculate the change in internal energy of the following system: A balloon is cooled by removing 0.659 kJ of heat. It shrinks on
bixtya [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

-310J

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The change in internal energy (ΔE) of a system is the sum of the heat (Q) and work (W) done on or by the system. i.e

ΔE = Q + W       ----------------------(i)

If heat is released by the system, Q is negative. Else it is positive.

If work is done on the system, W is positive. Else it is negative.

<em>In this case, the system is the balloon and;</em>

Q = -0.659kJ = -695J    [Q is negative because heat is removed from the system(balloon)]

W = +385J  [W is positive because work is done on the system (balloon)]

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

ΔE = -695 + 385

ΔE = -310J

Therefore, the change in internal energy is -310J

<em>PS: The negative value indicates that the system(balloon) has lost energy to its surrounding, thereby making the process exothermic.</em>
