A mass-spring system oscillates with an amplitude of 4.60 cm. If the spring constant is 234 N/m and the mass is 524 g, determine
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Mechanical energy, U = 0.247 Joules

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring constant of the spring, k = 234 N/m

Mass, m = 524 g = 0.524 kg

Amplitude, A = 4.6 cm = 0.046 m

To find,

The mechanical energy of the system.

Solution,

We know that the sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy is equal to its mechanical energy. In mass-spring system, it is given by :

U=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 234\times (0.046)^2

U = 0.247 Joules

So, the mechanical energy of the system is 0.247 Joules.

The latent heat of fusion of alcohol is 50 kcal/kg and its melting point is -54oC. It has a specific heat of 0.60 in its liquid
sashaice [31]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

To melt the alcohol

Heat needed = M . L  = 2 . 25  = 50 kcal

To warm up the alcohol

Heat needed = M . sp. ht. . ∆t   = 2 . 0.6 . 100  = 120 kcal

Total heat needed = 170 kcal

Assuming that 0.6 kcal/ kg / ˚C  is the specific heat and that the answer is wanted in kcal ( a rather odd unit to be in use here.)

Identify the direction (from high to low, from low to high) that heat is normally transferred and give an example. (WILL GIVE BR
Natasha2012 [34]
Heat normally travels from areas of higher heat to areas of lower heat. For example, if you were to be in a classroom and all the windows and doors were closed, and then you opened a door, then the reason why the room becomes cooler is not because cold air comes inside the room. However, it is because when you open the door, the heat from the classroom you're in escapes the room. This is why it feels cooler when you open a door, or even a window. Heat is traveling from areas of higher heat to areas of lower heat.
