Answer:
15009
Explanation:
PE = mgh
PE = 61.2(9.81)(10 * 2.50)
PE = 15009.3
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
It pushes the currents to opposite sides
Answer: 288.8 m
Explanation:
We have the following data:
is the time it takes to the child to reach the bottom of the slope
is the initial velocity (the child started from rest)
is the angle of the slope
is the length of the slope
Now, the Force exerted on the sled along the ramp is:
(1)
Where 
is the mass of the sled and 
its acceleration
In addition, if we draw a free body diagram of this sled, the force along the ramp will be:
(2)
Where 
is the acceleration due gravity
Then:
(3)
Finding :
(4)
(5)
(6)
Now, we will use the following kinematic equations to find :
(7)
(8)
Where 
is the final velocity
Finding from (7):
(9)
(10)
Substituting (10) in (8):
(11)
Finding :
