The US English System of measurement grew out of the manner in which people secured measurements using body parts and familiar objects. For example, shorter ground distances were measured with the human foot and longer distances were measured by paces, with one mile being 1,000 paces. Capacities were measured with household items such as cups, pails (formerly called gallons) and baskets.
That's a very difficult question to answer, because you give us
no information regarding what you have done in your life.
We can only assume that you have most likely breathed on occasion,
floated on your back in the ocean, lake or pool, maybe fallen off of a
ladder or out of bed, felt the warmth of the sun on your cheek, seen
a rainbow after a rainshower, heard the sound of thunder during a
summer storm, taken a trip in an airplane, and waited for a cup of
hot chocolate to cool off. The richness of any of these experiences
is greatly enhanced when you understand some of the Physics involved.
The answer is 2.49 x 10^5 KJ. This was obtained (1) use the formula for specific heat to achieve Q or heat then (2) get the energy to melt the copper lastly (3) Subtract both work and the total energy required to completely melt the copper bar is achieved.
Answer:
9 times
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is:
KE = ½ mv²
When we triple the velocity, the kinetic energy increases by a factor of 9.
9KE = ½ m(3v)²
