Ratling [72]3 years ago
5 0
Required Heat = Q

Q = Mass * specific heat of water * change in temp.

Q = 5g * 1g/cal*degC * 20degC

Q = 100 cal of heat is required

To convert calories to Joules,
1 cal = 4.184 Joules

100cal = 418.4 J of heat is needed

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

2.75 meters.

Explanation:

1 meter = 100 centimeters.

There are 275 centimeters.

275/100=2.75

So, each piece of wallpaper was 2.75 meters long.

A net force of 3000 N is accelerating a 1200 kg elevator upward. If the elevator starts from rest, how long will it take to trav
alexdok [17]

F = net force acting on the elevator in upward direction = 3000 N

m = mass of the elevator = 1200 kg

a = acceleration of the elevator = ?

Acceleration of the elevator is given as

a = F/m

a = 3000/1200

a = 2.5 m/s²

v₀ = initial velocity of the elevator = 0 m/s

Y = displacement of the elevator = 15 m

t = time taken

Using the kinematics equation

Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

15 = (0) t + (0.5) (2.5) t²

t = 3.5 sec

a lead block drops its temperature by 5.90 degrees celsius when 427 J of heat are removed from it. what is the mass of the block
Airida [17]

Answer:

577g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Temperature change = 5.9°C

Amount of heat lost = 427J

Unknown:

Mass of the block = ?

Solution:

The heat capacity of a body is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of that body by 1°C.

                H =  m c Ф

  H is the heat capacity

 m  is the mass of the block

  c is the specific heat capacity

   Ф is the temperature change

Specific heat capacity of lead is 0.126J/g°C

   m = H / m Ф

   m = \frac{427}{0.126 x 5.9}  = 577g

Mass of the lead block is 577g

The energy transformations that occur as you coast down long hill on a bicycle, including the brakes to make the bike stop at the bottom, is that at the top of the hill you have high GPE AND LOW KE, on your way down you have HIGH KE AND LOW GPE, and at the bottom you have thermal energy due to the stop of the brakes.

the law of conversation of energy and describe the energy transformations that occur as you coast down a long hill on a bicycle and then apply the brakes to make the bike stop at the bottom.
