How much energy is contained in matter what the mass of 1 gram (0.001 kilogram)

1 answer:

6 0

Classically and Newtonianly, it's the sum of the chemical energy if any,
the electrical energy if any, the thermal energy if any, and the mechanical
energy consisting of potential and kinetic energy if any.

The mechanical energy, consisting of potential and kinetic energy if any, is

0.001 x [ (acceleration of gravity x height) + (1/2) (speed)² ] .

But I've got a sneaky hunch that you're not talking about any of these.
You want to know how much [ <em><u>mc</u>² </em>] there is in 1 gram of mass. No prob.

E = m c² = (0.001) x (3 x 10⁸)² = <em>9 x 10¹³ joules</em>

That's the energy that a 1,000-watt toaster uses
in <em>2,852 years</em> of continuous toasting.

What If? Fluoride ions (which have the same charge as an electron) are initially moving with the same speed as the electrons fro

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

E₁ / E₂ = M / m

Explanation:

Let the electric field be E₁ and E₂ for ions and electrons respectively .

Force on ions = E₁ e where e is charge on ions .

Acceleration on ions a = E₁ e / M . Let initial velocity of both be u . Final velocity v = 0

v² = u² - 2as

0 = u² - 2 x E₁ e d / M

u² = 2 x E₁ e d / M

Similarly for electrons

u² = 2 x E₂ e d / m

Hence

2 x E₁ e d / M = 2 x E₂ e d / m

E₁ / E₂ = M / m

A 20.0 μf capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 850 v. the terminals of the charged capacitor are then connected to

liberstina [14]

(a) $Q = 1.70\times 10^{-2}\;\text{C}$ ;
(b) $V_\text{final} = 5.31\times 10^{2}\;\text{V}$ ;
(c) $E_\text{final} = 4.52\;\text{J}$ ;
(d) $\Delta E = 2.82\;\text{J}$ .

All four values are in 3 sig. fig.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

(a)

$Q = C\cdot V = 20.0\times 10^{-6} \times 850\;\text{V} = 1.70\times 10^{-2}\;\text{J}$ .

(b)

Sum of the final charge on the two capacitors should be the same as the sum of the initial charge. Voltage of the two capacitors should be the same. That is:

$C_1\cdot V_\text{final} +C_2 \cdot V_\text{final} = C_1\cdot V_\text{initial}$ ;

$(C_1+C_2)\cdot V_\text{final} = C_1\cdot V_\text{initial}$ ;

$\displaystyle V_\text{final} = \frac{C_1}{C_1+C_2}\cdot V_\text{initial}\\\phantom{V_\text{final}} = \frac{20.0\;\mu\text{F}}{20.0\;\mu\text{F} + 12.0\;\mu\text{F}} \times 850\;\text{V}\\\phantom{V_\text{final}} =531\;\text{V}$ .

(c)

$\displaystyle E = \frac{1}{2}\cdot C\cdot V^{2}$ .

$\displaystyle E_\text{final} = \frac{1}{2} (C_1 + C_2) \cdot {V_\text{final}}^{2} \\\phantom{E_\text{final}} = \frac{1}{2} \times (20.0\times 10^{-6} + 12.0\times 10^{-6}) \times 531.25\\\phantom{E_\text{final}} = 4.52\;\text{J}$ .

(d)

Initial energy of the system, which is the same as the initial energy in the $20.0\;\mu\text{F}$ capacitor:

$\displaystyle E_\text{initial} = \frac{1}{2} \times 20.0\times 10^{-6} \times 850^{2} = 7.225\;\text{J}$ .

Change in energy:

$\Delta E = 7.225\;\text{J} - 4.516\;\text{J} = 2.70\;\text{J}$ .

If a 7 kg bowling ball is lifted 2 m into the air and dropped, what speed will it strike the ground? (

Naily [24]

Answer:

6.32m/s

Explanation:

note:Now these calculations are based in the fact that acc. due to gravity is 10m/s²

okay so I'm thinking you think the speed of a body depends on the mass of the body also,umh... well it doesn't at all!

when two bodies of different masses fall from the same height,they fall at the same time( this is just to say)

now enough of the talking let solve....

so the ball was dropped .ie from rest to the ground through a distance of 2m,

the formula for calculating the distance if a body moving in a straight line is given by:

S=ut + ½at² where u is initial velocity, a is acceleration ( of the body or due to gravity, but since its falling freely under the influence of gravity its " we use the acceleration due to gravity ,which is 10m/s²) and t is the time taken to cover the distance.

from our question the ball was dropped from rest thus its u is 0 therefore we use this equation to find the time it took to touch ground (S=½at²)

solving ....

we get t to be 0.632s

to find the speed we substitute t in the equation below:

V=u+at ,but since u=0

V=at =10•0.632=6.32m/s

therefore the speed the body uses to strike the ground is 6.32m/s
