<h2>Answer: 502.08 J</h2>

Explanation:

The heat (thermal energy) needed in to raise the temperature in a process can be found using the following equation:

$Q=m.C.\Delta T$ (1)

Where:

$Q$ is the heat

$m=8 g$ is the mass of the element (<u>water</u> in this case)

$C$ is the specific heat capacity of the material. In the case of water is $C=4.184\frac{J}{g\°C}$

$\Delta T=15\°C$ is the variation in temperature <u>(which is increased in this case)</u>

Knowing this, let's rewrite (1) with these values:

$Q=(8 g)(4.184\frac{J}{g\°C})(15\°C)$ (2)

Finally:

$Q=502.08 J$

If a baseball's velocity is increased to four times its original velocity, by what factor does its kinetic energy increase

jeyben [28]

Answer:

16 times

Explanation:

Original

KE(i) = 1/2mv²

After increasing

KE(f) = 1/2m(4v)²

KE(f) = 8mv²

KE(f)/KE(i) = 8 x 2 = 16

The potential difference between the plates of an ideal air-filled parallel-plate capacitor with a plate separation of 6.0 cm is

Yanka [14]

Answer:

1000 N/C

Explanation:

Potential difference, V = 60 V

Distance between the plates, d = 6 cm = 0.06 m

The electric field between the plates is given by

E = V / d

E = 60 / 0.06 = 1000 N/C

Thus, the electric filed between the plates is 1000 N/C.

The change in momentum of an object is equal to the Question 4 options: Force acting on it times its velocity. impulse acting on

lesya [120]

Answer:

impulse acting on it

Explanation:

The impulse is defined as the product between the force applied to an object (F) and the time interval during which the force is applied ( $\Delta t$ ):

$I=F\Delta t$

We can prove that this is equal to the change in momentum of the object. In fact, change in momentum is given by:

$\Delta p = m \Delta v$

where m is the mass and $\Delta v$ is the change in velocity. Multiplying and dividing by $\Delta t$ , we get

$\Delta p = m \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} \Delta t$

and since $\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$ is equal to the acceleration, a, we have

$\Delta p = ma \Delta t$

And since the product (ma) is equal to the force, we have

$\Delta p = F \Delta t$

which corresponds to the impulse.

A 5 kg fish swimming at 1 m/s swallows an absentminded 500 g fish swimming toward it at a velocity that brings both fish to a ha

AlexFokin [52]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum. Momentum is defined as the product between mass and velocity of each body. And its conservation as the equality between the initial and final momentum. Mathematically described as

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f$
