The specific heat of aluminum is 0.0215 cal/g°c. if a 4.55 g sample of aluminum absorbs 2.55 cal of energy, by how much will the

temperature of the sample change?

The formula we will use on this one is:

E = m C ΔT

where,

E = energy

m = mass of sample

C = specific heat

ΔT = change in temperature

 

Calculating for ΔT:

ΔT = E / m C

ΔT = 2.55 cal / (4.55 g * 0.0215 cal/g°C)

ΔT = 0.098 °C

At a distance of 41 ft , an ionizing radiation source delivers 5.0 rem of radiation. How close could you get to the source and s
mash [69]

Answer:

at distance 18.33 ft no biological effects

Explanation:

given data

distance = 41 ft

radiation = 5 rem

to find out

how close get so no biological effects

solution

we know here that intensity of radiation R is inversely proportional to (radiation)²

so here equation will be

\frac{I1}{I2}  = (\frac{R2}{R1})^{2}   .............1

here I is intensity

so here I1 = 25

because for  0 to 25 there is  no detectable effects and for 25 to 100 it will . temporary decrease so

we take 25 because dose is less than 25 so we take that highest value

so

\frac{I1}{I2}  = (\frac{R2}{R1})^{2}

\frac{25}{5}  = (\frac{41}{R1})^{2}

R1 = 18.33 ft

so at distance 18.33 ft no biological effects

An athlete runs at a constant velocity of 5.2 m/s. What is the velocity of the athlete relative to the ground?
dimulka [17.4K]

The relative velocity of the athlete relative to the ground is 5.2 m/s

The given parameters;

constant velocity of the athlete, V = 5.2 m/s

let the velocity of the ground = Vg = 0

The relative velocity concept helps us to determine the velocity of a moving object relative to a stationary observer.

The athlete is the moving object in this question while the ground is stationary.

The relative velocity of the athlete relative to the ground is calculated as follows;

V/V_g = V - V_g  = 5.2 - 0 = 5.2  \ m/s

Thus, the relative velocity of the athlete relative to the ground is 5.2 m/s

A bullet of mass 0.0021 kg initially moving at 497 m/s embeds itself in a large fixed piece of wood and travels 0.65 m before co
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The force exerted by the wood on the bullet is 399.01 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of bullet, m = 0.0021 kg

initial velocity of the bullet, u = 497 m/s

final velocity of the bullet, v = 0

distance traveled by the bullet, S = 0.65 m

Determine the acceleration of the bullet which is the deceleration.

Apply kinematic equation;

V² = U² + 2aS

0 = 497² - (2 x 0.65)a

0 = 247009 - 1.3a

1.3a = 247009

a = 247009 / 1.3

a = 190006.92 m/s²

Finally, apply Newton's second law of motion to determine the force exerted by the wood on the bullet;

F = ma

F = 0.0021 x 190006.92

F = 399.01 N

Therefore, the force exerted by the wood on the bullet is 399.01 N

A car has a mass of 850 kg. By pushing on the car, Evan increases its speed
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

I=1,2•10³ kg•m/s

Explanation:

v¹=3.5m/s

vf=5m/s

v=5-3.5=1.5m/s

I=p

I=mv=850•1.5=1275 kg•m/s=1,2•10³ kg•m/s
