Answer:

2587.2 J.

Explanation:

From potential energy,

The work done to lift the chain = potential energy of the chain.

W = mgh............... Equation 1

Where W = work done to lift the chain, m = mass of the chain, g = acceleration due to gravity of the chain, h = height of the chain.

But,

m = m'd............... Equation 2

Where m' = density of the chain, d = length of the chain.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

W = m'dgh................ Equation 3

Given: m' = 2 kg/m, d = 12 m, h = 11 m, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 3

W = 2(12)(11)(9.8)

W = 2587.2 J.

A).  Convection is heating the soup in the pot.
When you stick the spoon into the hot soup,
conduction heats the spoon all the way up to the end.

b).  Water conducts heat a little bit. 
But convection is much more responsible for the
uniform distribution of temperature in the kiddie pool.

c).  The heat from the metal bench conducts directly
to the buttus epidermis when you sit on it.

d).  You feel the heat on your face ... but not on the back of your
neck ... on account of radiation from the fire and the hot grill.

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

9.7\times 10^{-4}\ rad/s

Explanation:

Given:

m=500 kg\\F=3000 N

Radius of earth , R=6371 \times 10^3\ m\\Angular speed =\omega\\We\  know\  that\ \\F= m\times \omega^{2} \times R\\\omega^{2}=\frac{F}{m*R} \\\\=\frac{3000}{500*6371 \times 10^3\ m}

=\frac{6}{6371 \times 10^3\ m}

=9.7\times 10^{-4}\ rad/s

A gas has an initial volume of 212 cm3 at a temperature of 293 K and a pressure of 0.98 atm. What is the final pressure of the g
Marizza181 [45]
Using the pressure law (P1 x V1)/ T1 = (P2 x V2)/ T2 where P1= the initial pressure V1= initial volume T1= initial temperature and P2= the final pressure V2= the final volume T2 = the final temperature and temperature is always in kelvin

A 16000 kg railroad car travels along on a level frictionless track with a constant speed of 23.0 m/s. A 5400 kg additional load
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The speed of the car when load is dropped in it is 17.19 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the railroad car, m₁ = 16000 kg

Speed of the railroad car, v₁ = 23 m/s

Mass of additional load, m₂ = 5400 kg

The additional load is dropped onto the car. Let v will be its speed. On applying the conservation of momentum as :

m_1v_1=(m_1+m_2)v

v=\dfrac{m_1v_1}{m_1+m_2}

v=\dfrac{16000\ kg\times 23\ m/s}{(16000+5400)\ kg}

v = 17.19 m/s

So, the speed of the car when load is dropped in it is 17.19 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
