Answer:

c) 3176 J

Explanation:

mass of 125 popcorn = 125 x .0001 = . 0125 kg

increase in temperature =  175 - 21 = 154°C

specific heat of popcorn = 1650

heat required to increase temperature

= mass of popcorn x increase in temperature x specific heat

= .0125 x 154 x 1650

=  3176.25 J

Just as during formation, when the material contracts, the temperature and pressure increase. This newly generated heat temporarily counteracts the force of gravity, and the outer layers of the star are now pushed outward ( in not sure tho ) I hope this helps

In this setup how can potential energy be converted into kinetic energy .
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

If force is applied to cause the motion of the body

Explanation:

In the setup given in this diagram, potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy by applying force on the cart or object to move it down the slope.

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body. The body has huge potential energy at its current position.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body.

As the body moves down the slope and its velocity increases, it gains massive kinetic energy.

Down the slope, the kinetic energy increases as the potential energy decreases.

At the bottom of the slope, the potential energy becomes zero and the kinetic energy is at its maximum.

The density of dry air at room temperature and atmospheric pressure Is 1.2 kg m-3. What volume would 6 kg of dry air occupy unde
larisa [96]

Answer:

V = 5 m³

Explanation:

The density of air, d = 1.2 kg/m³

Mass of the dry air, m = 6 kg

We need to find the volume o the gas. We know that, the density of an object is given by mass divided by its volume. So,

d=\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\V=\dfrac{m}{d}\\\\V=\dfrac{6}{1.2}\\\\V=5\ m^3

So, the volume of the dry air is 5 m³.
