Answer:
0.147 J
Explanation:
The total energy that has been transformed into thermal energy is equal to the loss of gravitational potential energy between the initial situation (bob at h=0.5 m above the ground) and the final situation (bob back but at h=0.45 m above the ground).
Therefore, we have

where
m = 0.3 kg is the mass of the bob
g = 9.8 m/s^2
h1 = 0.5 m is the initial height
h2 = 0.45 m is the final height
Substituting, we find the thermal energy

Therefore, the energy transformed into thermal energy is 0.147 J.
Answer:
vₓ = xg/2y
Explanation:
In this question, let us find the time it takes for the ball on the right that has zero initial velocity to reach the ground.
By newton equation of motion we know that
y = v₀ t - ½ g t²
t = 2y / g
This is the time it takes for the ball on the right to reach the ground; at this time the ball on the left travels a distance
vₓ = x/t
vₓ = xg/2y
vₓ = xg/2y
Where we assume that x and y are known.
Answer:
179 degree
Explanation:
Solid copper will lose heat to warm up and melt ice . Since all the ice has not melted so final temperature of mixture will be zero.
heat gained by ice to reach temperature of zero degree
= mass of ice x specific heat of ice x rise of temp
= 2 x 2093 x 16 = 66976 J
Heat gained to melt 1.1. kg of ice
mass x latent heat of ice
1.1 x 334000
= 367400
total heat
= 367400 + 66976
=434376
Heat lost by copper
= 6.3 x 385 x T
where 385 is specific heat of copper and T is initial temperature
heat lost = heat gained
6.3 x 385 T = 434376
T = 434376 / (6.3 x 385)
= 179 degree .
Metalloids are between metals and non-metals. Metals conduct electricity while Non-metals do not. Since metalloids are somewhere in between, then the substance may conduct some electricity. Hope it helps.
