A 100 kg marble slab falls off a skyscraper and falls 200 m to the ground without hitting anyone. Its fall stops within millisec

onds, so that there is no loss of thermal energy to its surroundings if its temperature is measured immediately after it stops. By how much has its temperature changed as a result of the fall, if we ignore energy gained or lost as a result of its interaction with the atmosphere? Cmarble = 860 J/(kg oC) 0.57 °C 1.14 °C 2.28 °C 4.56 °C

Answer:

Δ T = 2.28°C

Explanation:

given,

mass of marble = 100 Kg

height of fall = 200 m

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

C_marble = 860 J/(kg °C)

using conservation of energy

Potential energy = heat energy

  m g h = m C_{marble}\Delta T

  g h =C_{marble}\Delta T

  \Delta T= \dfrac{g h}{C_{marble}}

  \Delta T= \dfrac{9.8 \times 200}{860}

        Δ T = 2.28°C

harkovskaia [24]

Solution:

With reference to Fig. 1

Let 'x' be the distance from the wall

Then for \DeltaDAC:

tan\theta = \frac{d}{x}

⇒ \theta = tan^{-1} \frac{d}{x}

Now for the \DeltaBAC:

tan\theta = \frac{d + h}{x}

⇒ \theta = tan^{-1} \frac{d + h}{x}

Now, differentiating w.r.t x:

\frac{d\theta }{dx} = \frac{d}{dx}[tan^{-1} \frac{d + h}{x} -  tan^{-1} \frac{d}{x}]

For maximum angle, \frac{d\theta }{dx} = 0

Now,

0 = [/tex]\frac{d}{dx}[tan^{-1} \frac{d + h}{x} -  tan^{-1} \frac{d}{x}][/tex]

0 = \frac{-(d + h)}{(d + h)^{2} + x^{2}} -\frac{-d}{x^{2} + d^{2}}

\frac{-(d + h)}{(d + h)^{2} + x^{2}} = \frac{{d}{x^{2} + d^{2}}

After solving the above eqn, we get

x = \sqrt{\frac{d}{d + h}}

The observer should stand at a distance equal to x = \sqrt{\frac{d}{d + h}}

Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to _____ energy.
lapo4ka [179]
Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to D electrical energy. Its D because converting something has to do with recharging something and electronics have to charge. I hope I helped.

The law of universal gravitation states that a gravitational force exists between all objects in the universe. This force is dir
Ber [7]

Answer: D. it has been demonstrated to be without exception under certain stated conditions.

Explanation:

A <u>Law</u> is an affirmation (something established) based on repeated long-term observation of a phenomenon that has been studied and verified.  

That is: A law is present in all known theories and therefore is considered universal. In addition, a law can not be refuted, nor changed, because its precepts have been proven through various studies.  

<u>Unlike theory</u>, which is the set of rules and principles that describe and explain a particular phenomenon and <u>is subject to changes as new evidence emerges that gives meaning to it.  </u>

Then, based on what is explained above, the law of universal gravitation is a statement that exists because it was rigorously tested and verified, therefore it can not be refuted.
