If 125 j of heat energy is applied to a block of silver weighing 29.3 g, by how many degrees will the tem- perature of the silve

In order to solve the problem, we should know the heat capacity of silver. Which is equal to 0.240 J/g C  

The formula: H = mCpT
Where h is the energy applied
M is the mass
Cp is the specific heat
T is the change in temperature  

125 J = ( 29.3 g ) ( 0.240 J/g C)
T Solve for T  
<span>T = 17.78 degree C increase </span>

A satellite was in two separate crashes. In both crashes, the satellite had the same mass. Engineers want to know about the spee
irina1246 [14]

Answer & Explanation:

Crashing into the asteroid would cause the satellite to slow down, stop, or reverse direction, because it is a force in the opposite direction to the satellite's motion. Whichever crash was a stronger force would cause it to change motion more. It takes a stronger force to change the velocity of a more massive object.

LASIK eye surgery uses pulses of laser light to shave off tissue from the cornea, reshaping it. A typical LASIK laser emits a 1.
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

143 kW

Explanation:

Given that

Diameter of the beam, d = 1 mm

Wavelength of the beam, λ = 193 nm

Time used by the pulse, t = 14 ns

Energy of the pulse, U = 2 mJ

Recall that Power can be mathematically calculated using the relation,

Power = Work Done / Time,

To solve this, we apply the formula

P = U / Δt

P = 2*10^-3 J / 14*10^-9 s

P = 142857 W

P = 143 kW

A spy in a speed boat is being chased down a river by government officials in a faster craft. Just as the officials’ boat pulls
babunello [35]

Answer:

They are 7.4m apart.

Explanation:

Here we have a parabolic motion problem. we need the time taken to land so:

Y=Yo+Vo*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2

considerating only the movement on Y axis:

0=4.6-(9.81)*t^2\\t=0.68s

Because we have a contant velocity motion on X axis:

xs=vs*t\\xs=17m/s*(0.68s)\\xs=11.6m

and

xg=vg*t\\xg=28m/s*(0.68s)\\xg=19m

the distance between them is given by:

d=|xg-xs|\\d=7.4m

Rocks are elastic too! Explain how elasticity and Harry Reid's elastic rebound theory lead to a better understanding of earthqua
ANEK [815]
After the great 1906 San Francisco earthquake, geolophysicistHarry Fielding Reid examined the displacement of the ground surface along the San Andreas Fault. He concluded that the quake must have been the result of the elastic reboundof the strain energy in the rocks on either side of the fault.
strain energy is 0. 5x force x (compression) X (compression)
There is a lot of force and a bit of compression when rocks squash up against other rocks causing earthquakes
