How many joules of heat would be required to heat 0.5 kg of aluminum by 2 kelvin

A circuit contains two resistors in series. The voltage drop across the first is 10 V. The voltage drop across the second is als

Norma-Jean [14]

Hi there!

Voltage in a series can be expressed by the following:

$V_T = V_1 + V_2$

In words, the total voltage is equal to the sum of the individual voltage drops in a SERIES circuit.

We can solve for the total voltage:

$V_T = 10 + 10 = \boxed{\text{ D. 20 V}}$

What state of matter does sound travel the fastest?

antoniya [11.8K]

Sound travels fastest through matter in the solid state.

I know this from having answered a huge number of Brainly questions that required me to look up things like this:

-- Speed of sound in air . . . about 340 m/s

-- Speed of sound in sea-water . . . about 1,500 m/s

-- Speed of sound in steel . . . about 5,960 m/s

Examine the lightbulbs in the circuit below. Write a sentence explaining what would happen if lightbulb A burned out. Repeat thi

tatiyna

If the lightbulb A in the circuit shown in the image burned out, the path for the current to flow is disrupted because one of its terminals is connected direct to the source. So, there will be no current through the lightbulbs B, C, and D, and they will turn off. Similarly it will happen, if the lightbulb D burned out.

If the lightbulb B burned out the current will continue circulating through the lightbulbs A, C, and D, because lightbulb B is connected in parallel. Similarly it will happen, if the lightbulb C burned out.

A toy cannon tosses a rubber ball straight upward. A motion sensor measures the speed of the ball as it leaves the cannon. Using

mezya [45]

Answer:

With this information is not possible to calculate the mass.

Explanation:

This is a characteristic problem of energy conservation, where kinetic energy becomes potential energy. For this particular problem, we have the initial speed as input data. The moment the ball comes out of the cannon we have the maximum kinetic energy, as the ball goes up the ball will gain more potential energy as the ball loses kinetic energy, until the moment the ball reaches the maximum height. At the maximum height point, the ball will have its maximum potential energy while its kinetic energy is zero. In other words, all the kinetic energy that was, in the beginning, was transformed into potential energy.

$E_{p}=E_{k}\\m*g*h=0.5*m*v^2$

In the above equation the masses are canceled and we can determine the maximum height, by means of the initial speed.

$h=\frac{0.5*v^2}{g} [m]$

But the mass cannot be determined, since it would be necessary to know the value of the energy, in order to determine the value of the mass.
