<span>Answer: high heat capacity

Water is having a high heat capacity that makes it more stable because it needs much more energy to heat it up than other liquid. That makes a place with much water is a suitable and safer place for many organisms to grow. Water also can be used for temperature control like sweating in human.</span>

What is the force of a object that has a mass of 7 kg and an acceleration of 6 m/s/s
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

<h2>42 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

mass = 7 kg

acceleration = 6 m/s²

We have

force = 7 × 6 = 42

We have the final answer as

<h3>42 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

Electricity costs 6 cents per kilowatt hour. In one month one home uses one megawatt hour of electricity. How much will the elec
Luda [366]

Answer:

Cost of 1000  kilowatt hour = 6000 cents

Explanation:

Given that

Electricity cost is 6 cents per kilowatt hour.

And we have to found out the cost for one megawatt hour

We know that

1 kilowatt = 1000 watt

1 megawatt = = 1000000 watt

1 megawatt = 1000 kilowatt

1 megawatt hour = 1000 kilowatt hour  

Given that cost of 1 kilowatt hour = 6 cents

So the cost of 1000  kilowatt hour = 6 x 1000 cents

Cost of 1000  kilowatt hour = 6000 cents

A worker pushed a 33 kg block 6.1 m along a level floor at constant speed with a force directed 23° below the horizontal. if the
jenyasd209 [6]
The work done occurs only in the direction the block was moved - horizontally. Work is given by:

W = F(h) * d

Where F(h) is the force applied in that direction (horizontal) and d is the distance in that direction. In this case, F(h) is the horizontal component of the applied force, F(app). However, the question doesn't give us F(app), so we need to find it some other way.

Since the block is moving at a constant speed, we know the horizontal forces must be balanced so that the net force is 0. This means that F(h) must be exactly balanced by the friction force, f. We can express F(h) as a function of F(app):

F(h) = F(app)cos(23)

Friction is a little trickier - since the block is being PUSHED into the ground a bit by the vertical component of the applied force, F(v), the normal force, N, is actually a bit more than mg:

N = mg + F(v) = mg + F(app)sin(23)

Now we can get down to business and solve for F(app) - as mentioned above:

F(h) = f
F(h) = uN
F(h) = u * (mg + F(v))
F(app)cos(23) = 0.20 * (33 * 9.8 + F(app)sin(23))
F(app) = 76.8

Now that we have F(app), we can find the exact value of F(h):

F(h) = F(app)cos(23)
F(h) = 76.8cos(23)
F(h) = 70.7

And now that we have F(h), we can find W:
W = F(h) * d
W = 70.7 * 6.1
W = 431.3

Therefore, the work done by the worker's force is 431.3 J. This also represents the increase in thermal energy of the block-floor system.

A car with a mass of 2.0×10^3 kg is traveling at 15m/s .what is the momentum of the car ?
Maurinko [17]
Hello,

<span>A car with a mass of 2.0×10^3 kg is traveling at 15m/s. We need to find the momentum of the car. To do so, follow this formula:

p=mv

Where,

p = momentum 
m = mass
v = </span>velocity

The cars mass is 2.0E3 and its velocity is 15m/s. Therefore:

p=2.0  x 10^3 *15 or 2000(15)

p=30000

Thus, the cars momentum is 30000 kg m/s

A 0.58 kg mass is moving horizontally with a speed of 6.0 m/s when it strikes a vertical wall. The mass rebounds with a speed of
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

5.8\; {\rm kg\cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}.

Explanation:

If the mass of an object is m and the velocity of that object is v, the linear momentum of that object would be m\, v.

Assume that the initial velocity of the mass is positive (6.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}.) However, the direction of the velocity is reversed after the impact. Thus, the sign of the new velocity of the object would be negative- the opposite of that of the initial velocity. The new velocity would be (-4.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}).

Thus, the change in the velocity of the mass would be:

\begin{aligned}& (\text{Change in Velocity}) \\ =\; & (\text{Final Velocity}) - (\text{Initial Velocity}) \\ =\; & (-4.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) - (6.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\ =\; & (-10\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1})\end{aligned}.

The change in the linear momentum of the mass would be:

\begin{aligned} & \text{change in momentum} \\ =\; & (\text{mass}) \times (\text{change in velocity}) \\ =\; & 0.58\; {\rm kg} \times (-10\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\  =\; & (-5.8\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}})\end{aligned}.

Thus, the magnitude of the change of the linear momentum would be 5.8\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}.
