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

a student moves a box across the floor by exerting 23.3 N of force and doing 47.2 J of work on the box. How far does the student
kozerog [31]
Work = Force x Distance
47.2J = 23.3N x d
d = 47.2/23.3
d = 2.0258 m

What is the slit spacing of a diffraction necessary for a 600 nm light to have a first order principal maximum at 25.0°?
Sauron [17]

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of light, \lambda=600\ nm=6\times 10^{-7}\ m

Angle, \theta=25^{\circ}

We need to find the slit spacing for diffraction. For a diffraction, the first order principal maximum is given by :

d\sin\theta=n\lambda

n is 1 here

d is slit spacing

d=\dfrac{\lambda}{\sin\theta}\\\\d=\dfrac{6\times 10^{-7}}{\sin(25)}\\\\d=1.41\times 10^{-6}\ m\\\\d=1.41\ \mu m

So, the slit spacing is 1.41\ \mu m.

How much work, in N*m, is done when a 10.0 N force moves an object 2.5 m?
Alik [6]
W = F * d
W = 10N * 2.5 m
W = 25 N m
So the answer you want is the third one down.
