The formula shown below is used to calculate the energy released when a specific quantity of fuel is burned. Calculate the energ

y released by a burning sample of fuel if the temperature of 100g of water was raised by 20 °C. (Specific heat capacity of water = 4200J/kg °C)

Answer: 8400 J

Explanation:

The formula referenced in the question is:

Q=m. c. \Delta T  

Where:

Q  is the thermal energy

m=100g \frac{1 kg}{1000 g}=0.1 kg is the mass  of the water sample

c=4200 \frac{J}{kg\°C}  is the specific heat capacity of  water

\Delta T=20\°C  is the variation in temperature

Solving:

Q=(0.1 kg)(4200 \frac{J}{kg\°C})(20\°C)  

Q=8400 J  This is the thermal energy released

If a battery causes a wire to carry a current of 4 Amps how many coulombs of charge flow past any point in the wire in 3 seconds
BabaBlast [244]

▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪  {\huge\mathfrak{Answer}}▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪

According to above question ~

  • Current (I) = 4 Amperes

  • Time (t) = 3 seconds

  • Charge (q) = ?

Let's find the charge (q) by using formula ~

  • I =  \dfrac{q}{t}

  • 4 =  \dfrac{q}{3}

  • q = 4 \times 3

  • q = 12 \:  \: coulombs

Hence, 12 coulombs of charge flow past any point in the wire in 3 seconds

A 1 pound bucket rests on a table. What is the support force exerted on the bucket by the table? What is the support force when
katrin2010 [14]

This question involves the concepts of equilibrium and Newton's third law of motion.

The support force will be "1 pound" for the empty bucket and the support force will be "6 pounds" after pouring water into it.

  • According to the condition of equilibrium, the sum of forces acting on a stationary object must be zero. Hence, the support force of the table will be equal to the total mass of the bucket.
  • According to Newton's Third Law of Motion every action force has an equal but opposite reaction force. Hence, the support force will be a reaction force to the weight of the bucket.

Therefore, the support force in each case will be equal to the total mass of the bucket:

Case 1 (empty bucket):

<u>support force = 1 pound</u>

<u></u>

Case 1 (water poured):

support force = 1 pound + 5 pound

<u>support force = 6 pound</u>

<u></u>
