heat capacity: The capability of a substance to absorb heat energy; the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one mole or gram of a substance by one degree Celsius without any change of phase.

is this what ur asking?

An object of mass m is traveling on a horizontal surface. There is a coefficient of kinetic friction  between the object and th
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

8m * (μg/v)^2

Explanation:

k, the spring constant = ?

(k in terms of μ, m, g, and v.)

Frictional force = μmg

Note: lost KE is converted to work done against the friction + PE of the spring

1/2mv2 = μmgx + 1/2kx^2....equation i

Cancel the 1/2 on both sides

mv^2 = μmgx + kx^2

Lets recall that:

Due to frictional effect, further enegy will be lost when the spring recoils backward

Therefore

1/2kx^2 = μmgx..... equation ii

Let's substitute 1/2kx^2 in equation I for ii

So we can say that:

1/2mv^2 = (μmgx)+ μmgx

1/2mv^2 = 2 (μmgx)

1/4mv^2 = μmgx

Cancel out m on both sides

1/4v^2 = μgx

Make x subject of the formula

x = (1/4v^2) / (μg)...... equation iii

substitute x to equation ii

But first make k in equation ii subject of the formula

1/2kx^2 = μmgx

k = 2μmg/x

Now substitute x

k = 2μmg / ((1/4v^2) / (μg))

k = 2μmg * ((μg) / (1/4v^2))

k = 8m * (μg/v)^2

8m * (μg/v)^2

Time dilation: A missile moves with speed 6.5-10 m/s with respect to an observer on the ground. How long will it take the missil
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The time taken by missile's clock is 4.6\times 10^{6} s

Solution:

As per the question:

Speed of the missile, v_{m = 6.5\times 10^{3}} m/s

Now,

If 'T' be the time of the frame at rest then the dilated time as per the question is given as:

T' = T + 1

Now, using the time dilation eqn:

T' = \frac{T}{\sqrt{1 + (\frac{v_{m}}{c})^{2}}}

\frac{T'}{T} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + (\frac{v_{m}}{c})^{2}}}

\frac{T + 1}{T} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + (\frac{v_{m}}{c})^{2}}}

1 + \frac{1}{T} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + (\frac{v_{m}}{c})^{2}}}

1 + \frac{1}{T} = (1 + (\frac{v_{m}}{c})^{2})^{- \frac{1}{2}}         (1)

Using binomial theorem in the above eqn:

We know that:

(1 + x)^{a} = 1 + ax

Thus eqn (1) becomes:

1 + \frac{1}{T} = 1 - \frac{- 1}{2}.\frac{v_{m}^{2}}{c^{2}}

T = \frac{2c^{2}}{v_{m}^{2}}

Now, putting appropriate values in the above eqn:

T = \frac{2(3\times 10^{8})^{2}}{(6.5\times 10^{3})^{2}}

T = 4.6\times 10^{6} s

¿Qué cantidad de calor absorbió una masa de 4 g de cinc al pasar de 20 °C a<br> 180 °C?
Alborosie

(amount of heat)Q = ? , (Mass) m= 4 g , ΔT = T f - T i = 180 c° - 20 °c = 160 °c ,

Ce = 0.093 cal/g. °c

Q = m C ΔT

Q = 4 g × 0.093 cal/g.c° × ( 180 °c- 20 °c )

Q= 4×0.093 × 160

Q = 59.52 cal

I hope I helped you^_^
