Answer:

Correct answer: E total = 2,800 J

Explanation:

Given:

m = 4 kg the mass of the object

V = 20 m/s the speed (velocity) of the object

H = 50 m the height of the object above the surface

E total = ? J

The total energy of an object is equal to the sum of potential and kinetic energy

E total = Ep + Ek

Ep = m g H we take g = 10 m/s²

Ep = 4 · 10 · 50 = 2,000 J

Ek = m V² / 2

Ek = 4 · 20² / 2 = 2 · 400 = 800 J

E total = 2,000 + 800 = 2,800 J

E total = 2,800 J

A block sliding across a level surface has a mass of 2.5 kg and a mechanical energy of 20 joules. What is its velocity?

tia_tia [17]

Hi!

The energy of the block is 4 m/s

To calculate this, you need to use the equation for kinetic energy. The block is sliding (i.e. it's moving). If the object is sliding across a level surface, the only energy it has is kinetic energy, because there is no change in potential energy (which changes with height). So, the mechanical energy will be pure kinetic energy. The equation is the following, derived from the expression for kinetic energy:

$v= \sqrt{ \frac{2*Ke}{m}}=\sqrt{ \frac{2*20 (kg*m^{2}*s^{-2}) }{2,5kg}}=4 m/s$

The magnetic field is 0.0 2M from the wire is 0.1 T what is the magnitude of the magnetic field 0.0 1M from the same wire

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

0.2 T

Explanation:

Magnetic field is inversely proportional to the distance from wire since the distance is halved therefore magnetic field will be doubled.

Fe₂O3<br> + co<br> →<br> Fe3O4 + CO₂

Goryan [66]

Explanation:

Fe₂O₃ + CO → Fe₃O₄ + CO₂

Balancing the equation above, we can derive simple mathematical equations that are very easy to solve.

aFe₂O₃ + bCO → cFe₃O₄ + dCO₂

a,b,c and d are the coefficients needed to balance the equation above;

Conserving Fe; 2a = 3c

O: 3a + b = 4c + 2d

C: b = d

let a = 1;

c = $\frac{2}{3}$

Since b = d

3a + d = 4c + 2d

3a = 4c + 2d - d

3a = 4c + d

a = 1, c = $\frac{2}{3}$

3 = 4 x $\frac{2}{3}$ + d

d = $\frac{1}{3}$

b = $\frac{1}{3}$

multiplying a, b, c and d by 3:

a = 3 b = 1 c = 2 and d = 1

3Fe₂O₃ + CO → 2Fe₃O₄ + CO₂

Imagine a ringing bell set inside a sealed glass jar. Once all the air is removed and a vacuum is crated, the ringing sound is n

kenny6666 [7]

working...

Sound wave needs medium to travel

as energy which travels in this wave is because of transfer from one particle to another particle

If there is no medium then energy can not be transferred and sound wave will not travel

so in vacuum we can not listen sound

similarly here air is removed it means there is no medium inside the jar to travel the sound and hence we can not hear it

Option B is correct

Without air, the sound waves cannot travel to the ear.

Temperature change time base problem. Suppose V = 24 V, I = 0.1 A, for water: mw = 51 gm, cw = 4.18 J/gm ∘K-1, for resistor: mr

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

t = 444.125 sec

Explanation:

Given data:

V = 24 volt

I = 0.1 ampere

mass of water mw = 51 gm

cr = 4.18 J/gm degree K^-1

mass of resistor = 8 gm

cr = 3.7 J/gm degree K^-1

we know that power is given as

Power P = VI

But P =E/t

so equating both side we have

$\frac{E}{t} = VI$

solving for t

$t = \frac{E}{VI}$

$t = \frac{m_w C_w \Delta T}{VI}$

$t = \frac{51 \times 4.18 \times (5 -0)}{24\times 0.1}$

t = 444.125 sec
