IrinaK [193]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

(a) 5142.86 m

(b) 317.5 m/s

(c) 49.3 degree C

Explanation:

m = 100 kg, Q = 1200 kcal = 1200 x 1000 x 4.2 = 504 x 10^4 J

(a) Let the altitude be h

Q = m x g x h

504 x 10^4 = 100 x 9.8 x h

h = 5142.86 m

(b) Let v be the speed

Q = 1/2 m v^2

504 x 10^4 =  1/2 x 100 x v^2

v = 317.5 m/s

(c) The temperature of normal human body, T1 = 37 degree C

Let the final temperature is T2.

Q = m x c x (T2 - T1)

504 x 10^4 = 100 x 4.1 x 1000 x (T2 - 37)

T2 = 49.3 degree C

You are riding in an elevator that is accelerating upward. Suppose you stand on a scale. The reading on the scale is __________.
tatyana61 [14]

Given the following choices;

A) less than your true weight, mg.

B) equal to your true weight, mg.

C) more than your true weight, mg.

D) could be more or less than your true weight, mg, depending on the value of the speed.

The answer is; C

This is due to G-force. These are the perception of the weight of an object that is accelerating against gravity. We experience 1 g force on the surface of the earth because the ground exerts an upward exertion against gravity preventing as from falling to the center of the earth.
