Answer:

1.28 x 10^4 N

Explanation:

m = 1500 kg, h = 450 km, radius of earth, R = 6400 km

Let the acceleration due to gravity at this height is g'

g' / g = {R / (R + h)}^2

g' / g = {6400 /  (6850)}^2

g' = 8.55 m/s^2

The force between the spacecraft and teh earth is teh weight of teh spacecraft

W = m x g' = 1500 x 8.55 = 1.28 x 10^4 N

a hot iron bar is placed 100ml 22C water. the water temperature rises to 32C. how much heat did the water gain and how much heat
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

  • Water gained: 10
  • Iron lost: -10

Explanation:

Given: Hot iron bar is placed 100ml 22C water, the water temperature rises to 32C

To find: How much heat the water gain, how much heat did the iron bar lost

Formula:Q = change T x C x M

Solve:

<u>How much heat water gained</u>

Initial heat = 22, then rose to 32. To find how much heat the water gained, simply subtract the current heat by the initial heat.

                                              32 - 22 = 10

The water gained 10 amounts of heat.

<u>How much heat Iron lost</u>

Current heat = 32, then dropped to 22. To find how much heat the Iron lost, simply subtract the initial heat by the current heat.

                                                   22 - 32 = -10

The Iron lost -10 amounts of water.

All of the following are physical properties of hydrogen peroxide except it
tankabanditka [31]
The answer to this question is B, Reacts with sunlight.

The 2 main properties of substances are their physical properties and chemical properties. 
Physical properties are some observable/measurable characteristics, such as their color, mass, state, melting point, conductivity etc.

Meanwhile, for chemical properties, they're about how the substance reacts with other substances, such as metals react with acid to form hydrogen. And by the word "react", it means there's no way turn the reaction product back to the original substance without using chemical methods such as heating or electrolysis. 

Therefore, all the choices above are physical properties of hydrogen peroxide except for B, as it is the only choice that relates to the substance reacting to another substance.
