Answer:
Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. Mechanical energy can be either kinetic energy (energy of motion) or potential energy
The PE for this question will be 588,000 because we take the mass (2,000 kg), multiply it by 9.8 which is Gravitational Acceleration and then multiply that by the height (30 meters)
As the steam touches the skin, it undergoes a phase change and releases latent heat due to the phase change. As it reaches equilibrium, it releases sensible heat. We calculate as follows:
Q = latent heat + sensible Heat
Q = 2.26 kJ / g (50.0 g) + 50.0 g ( 4.18 J / g C) (37 C - 100 C) ( 1 kJ / 1000 J)
Q = 99.833 kJ
Answer:
0.8s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Height of shelf = 3m
Unknown:
Time it will take to hit the ground = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use the expression below;
x = ut + 
gt²
x is the height
u is the initial velocity = 0m/s
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²
t is the time taken = ?
Now insert the parameters and solve for t;
3 = (0 x t) +( x 9.8 x t²)
3 = 4.9t²
t² = 0.6
t = 0.8s
