To calculate the specific heat capacity of an object or substance, we can use the formula

c = E / m△T

Where
c as the specific heat capacity,
E as the energy applied (assume no heat loss to surroundings),
m as mass and
△T as the energy change.

Now just substitute the numbers given into the equation.

c = 2000 / 2 x 5
c = 2000/ 10
c = 200

Therefore we can conclude that the specific heat capacity of the block is 200 Jkg^-1°C^-1

Which is an example of electrical energy being converted or changed into light energy?
Lera25 [3.4K]
When I see the word "which" at the beginning of your question,
I just KNOW that there's a list of choices printed right there
next to he part that you copied, and for some mysterious
reason, you decided not to let us see the choices.

Any flashlight, light bulb, laser, or spark ... like lightning ...
converts some electrical energy into some light energy.

You push a coin across a table. The coin stops. How does this motion relate to balanced and unbalanced forces?
Snezhnost [94]
If you are pushing the coin across the table at a constant rate, the friction of the table and the horizontal force of your hand pushing are equal, and the coin itself moves at a constant rate. If you push a coin and let it go, there is no horizontal force keeping the coin going. Friction slows the coin to a stop. In both cases, the gravitational downward pull of Earth is equally but oppositely resisted by the upward push of table on the coin.

A beam of electrons moving in the x-direction enters a region where a uniform 208-G magnetic field points in the y-direction. Th
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

1.26\cdot 10^7 m/s

Explanation:

When a charged particle moves perpendicularly to a magnetic field, the force it experiences is:

F=qvB

where

q is the charge

v is its velocity

B is the strength of the magnetic field

Moreover, the force acts in a direction perpendicular to the motion of the charge, so it acts as a centripetal force; therefore we can write:

qvB=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the particle

r is the radius of the orbit of the particle

The equation can be re-arranges as

v=\frac{qBr}{m}

where in this problem we have:

q=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C is the magnitude of the charge of the electron

B=208 G=208\cdot 10^{-4}T is the strength of the magnetic field

The beam penetrates 3.45 mm into the field region: therefore, this is the radius of the orbit,

r=3.45 mm = 3.45\cdot 10^{-3} m

m=9.11\cdot 10^{-31} kg is the mass of the electron

So, the electron's speed is

v=\frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(208\cdot 10^{-4})(3.45\cdot 10^{-3})}{9.11\cdot 10^{-31}}=1.26\cdot 10^7 m/s

Example of an unbalenced force
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

unbalance force can be defined as the force that makes object slow up or down, in order words unbalanced force can be  defined as anything that can alter the state of motion of an object.

an example of an unbalanced force is likened to a situation of someone inside a lift going for a meeting at the top floor, the force which propels the lift upward is unbalanced, because it is greater than the force acting on the lift.
