Answer:

96 s.

Explanation:

(a)

From the question,

Q = cm(t₂-t₁)................... Equation 1

Where Q = heat required to boil the water, c = specific heat capacity of the water, m = mass of the water, t₂ = final temperature of water, t₁ = initial temperature of water

Note: The boiling point of water = 100 °C

Given: c = 4200 J/kg.°C, t₂ = 100 °C, t₁ = 20 °C

mass of water = density×volume

m = D×v, Where D = 1000 kg/m³, v = 1.00 L = 0.001 m³

Hence, m = 1000×0.001 = 1 kg.

Substitute into equation 1

Q = 4200×1(100-20)

Q = 4200×8

Q = 33600 J.

But,

P = Q/t................... Equation 2

make t  the subject of the equation

t = Q/P................. Equation 3

Where P = power, t = time

From the question,

70 % of the available energy is absorbed by water.

P = 0.7×500 = 350 W.

Substitute into equation 2

t = 33600/350

t = 96 s.

3. The soccer kicker kicks a 2 kg football with a force of 68 N. How fast will the ball accelerate down the field?
Katen [24]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf m= 2 \ kg , \\a= 34 \ m/s^2,  \\\F= 68 \ N}}

Explanation:

The formula for force is:

F=m*a

If we rearrange the formula to solve for a (acceleration), the formula becomes

\frac{F}{m} =a

The force is 68 Newtons. Let's convert the units to make the problem easier later on. 1 N is equal to 1 kg*m/s², so the force of 68 N is equal to 68 kg*m/s².

The mass is 2 kilograms.

F=68 \ kg*m/s^2 \\m= 2\ kg

Substitute the values into the formula.

\frac{68 \ kg*m/s^2}{2 \ kg} =a

Divide. Note that the kilograms will cancel each other out (hence why we changed the units).

\frac{68 \ m/s^2}{2}=a

34 \ m/s^2=a

The acceleration is<u> </u><u>34 meters per second squared.</u>

If the v – t graph of a particle is parallel to the t – axis the body has (a) uniform velocity (b) uniform acceleration (c) zero
maxonik [38]

Answer:

zero  velocity

Explanation:

if the v-t graph is parallel to the time axis its mean body has covered no path in other words the body is at rest so the velocity of the body should be zero

hope my answer will helps u plz mark me brainlist
