Answer:

<em>About four million tons of </em><em><u>matter</u></em><em> are converted to energy in the Sun’s core every second</em>

Explanation:

<u>The Sun </u>

It's estimated that The Sun fuses near 600 million tons (6.10^9\ kg) of hydrogen into helium every second. As a result, 4 million tons of matter are converted to energy every second according to Einstein's equation E=mc^2

A locomotive approaches its next stop and accelerates at -0.12 m/s^2, coming to a complete stop in 30 seconds. This motion could
Masja [62]

Answer:

<em>Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration</em>

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion</u>

Both the velocity and acceleration are vectors because they have magnitude and direction. When the motion is restricted to one dimension, i.e. left-right or up-down, the direction is marked with the sign according to some preset reference.

The locomotive is moving at a certain speed with a (so far) unknown sign but the acceleration has a negative sign. Since the locomotive comes to a complete stop it means the velocity and the acceleration are of opposite signs.

Thus the velocity is positive.

Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration

Suppose a grower sprays (8.2x10^1) kg of water at 0 °C onto a fruit tree of mass 180 kg. How much heat is released by the water
____ [38]

Since there is no temperature change which drives heat flow, thus no heat will be released by the water.

<h3>Heat released by the water when it freezes</h3>

The heat released by the water when it freezes is calculated as follows;

Q = mcΔФ

where;

  • m is mass of water
  • c is specific heat capacity of water
  • ΔФ is change in temperature = Фf - Фi

when water freezes, the temperature, Фf = 0 °C

Q = 82 x 4200 x (0 - 0)

Q = 0

Since there is no temperature change which drives heat flow, thus no heat will be released by the water.
