Answer:

10 calories

Explanation:

The thermal energy needed to increase the temperature of a substance is given by

Q=m C \Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is the specific heat of the substance

\Delta T is the increase in temperature

In this problem, the mass of the ice is m=20 g, the specific heat is C=0.5 calories/gram°C, and the increase in temperature is \Delta T=1^{\circ}. Therefore, the energy required is

Q=(20 g)(0.5 cal/g^{\circ}C)(1^{\circ}C)=10 cal

You drag a crate across a floor with a rope. The force applied is 750 N and the angle of the rope is 25.0° above the horizontalH
frez [133]

a.

The work done by a constant force along a rectilinear motion when the force and the displacement vector are not colinear is given by:

W=F\cos\theta\cdot d

where F is the magnitude of the force, theta is the angle between them and d is the distance.

The problen gives the following data:

The magnitude of the force 750 N.

The angle between the force and the displacement which is 25°

The distance, 26 m.

Plugging this in the formula we have:

\begin{gathered} W=\left(750\right)\left(\cos25\right)\left(26\right) \\ W=17673 \end{gathered}

Therefore the work done is 17673 J.

b)

The power is given by:

P=\frac{W}{t}

the problem states that the time it takes is 6 s. Then:

\begin{gathered} P=\frac{17673}{6} \\ P=2945.5 \end{gathered}

Therefore the power is 2945.5 W

Lisa [10]

Answer:

<h2>30 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 15 × 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>30 N</h3>

Dana is on a train traveling at a speed of 20 km/h. Dana walks from the front of the train to the back of the train at a speed o
Maslowich

Answer:

16km/h

Explanation:

Vt=20km/h ---train speed

Vd=4km/h

Donas speed relative to ground is:

Vrd=Vt-Vd

Donas is moving in opposite direction of train .

Vrd=20km/h-4km/h

Vrd=16km/h

Imagine a simple pendulum swinging in an elevator. If the cable holding the elevator up was to snap, allowing the elevator to go
Lady_Fox [76]

One of the components that affect the period is gravity (the other is length). This gravity is basically the value of the effective acceleration that acts on the body due to gravity. When the elevator is over free fall, the effective gravity becomes zero. Mathematically this can be visualized as,

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{\dot{g_{eff}}}}

Since this value is zero, the period would tend to be infinite,

T \rightarrow \infty

Therefore the frequency that is inversely proportional to the period would be defined as

f = \frac{1}{T}

f = \frac{1}{\infty}

f \approx 0

In this way there is no frequency on the body which will not generate any oscillation on the body
