How much heat, in joules and in calories, must be added to a 75.0–g iron block with a specific heat of 0.449 j/g °c to increas

Note that
1 cal = 4.184 J

Given:
m = 75.0 g, the mass of the iron block
c = 0.449 J/(g-°C), the specific heat of iron
Tm = 1535 °C, melting temperature
T0 = 25 °C, initial temperature.

Sensible heat required to raise the temperature of the iron is given by
Q = mc(Tm - T0)
    = (75 g)*(0.449 J/(g-°C))*(1535 - 25 °C)
    = 50849.25 J = 50.849 kJ

Q = (50849.25 J)*( 1 cal/4.184 J)
    = 12153.3 cal

Answer:
50849.3 J or 12153.3 cal

You are watching a magic show. For one trick the magician rolls a ball down a hill. Suddenly the ball stops moving down the hill
poizon [28]
The forces (what causes the ball to accelerate) are gravity, friction, and the normal force. In this case, gravity is a downward force caused by the gigantic mass of the Earth and the mass of the ball. Keep in mind that a force is acceleration. Acceleration is a change in velocity. The ball speeds up. Than it stops speeding up at a certain point where the frictional force (along with air friction) equals the parallel component of gravity. 




Newton's Second Law States- The greater mass of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate the object.

Which is not expecting acceleration?
Kamila [148]

1. Answer: A skydiver whose air resistance is equal to that of her weight.

A skydiver free falls under gravity but her rate of fall slows down due to drag -air resistance. when this air resistance becomes equal to her weight, the two get balanced and the body does not accelerate or decelerates.

2. Answer: Gravity

Contact forces are those which act when there is physical contact between two bodies. For example: normal force, tension and spring force.

Non-contact forces act between two bodies even when they are at a distance apart. For example: gravity, electric force, magnetic force etc.

3. Answer: The tendency of an object's motion to remain the same.

Inertia is a property of matter by virtue of which it tends to remain in its state of motion or rest. It does depend on mass of the object, more the mass, more is inertia. For example, cycle can be easily moved but we need real push hard for a car to move.

4. Answer: 254 N

The man pushes the box with 310 N force at an angle of  55 degrees to the horizontal.

we can write this in terms of horizontal (F cos \theta)and vertical component (F sin\theta).

Horizontal component: F_H=310 \times cos (55^o)= 178 N

Vertical component: F_v=310 \times sin (55^o)= 254 N

The vertical component would act towards the floor making the job more difficult to move the job.
