Q = mcθ

Where m = mass of water in kg.
c = specific heat capacity in kJ/kg⁰C, c for water = 4200 kJ/kg⁰C
θ = temperature rise in ⁰C

Q = 100*4200* 20    Note here the temperature rise is 20 ⁰C
Q = 8 400 000 J

In calories,  4.2 J = 1 Calorie
=  8 400 000 / 4.2   = 200 000

Q = 200 000 Calories

The tire on this drag racer is severely twisted: The force of the road on the tire is quite large(most likely several times the
Andrew [12]

Answer: Speeding Up

Explanation:

Force is proportional to the acceleration of an object. The greater the force, the more acceleration will be produced.

When the force on the tire is equal to the weight of the car, the car is reaching a stability as a result of increase in motion.

But when the force of the load on the tire is quite large(most likely several times the weight of the car) and is directed forward, then, the car is at high speed.

1) A capacitor consists of two metal surfaces separated by an electrical insulator with no electrically conductive path through
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Current flows in a resistor-capacitor circuit because of the varying electric field across the plates of a capacitor induced by an AC voltage source <em>(displacement current)</em>

Explanation:

In a capacitor, current does not flow the same way it does in a circuit, that is through conduction. This is because there is a highly resistive material in between the plates of the capacitor. Rather current flows through a phenomenon called displacement current.

Because of change in charge accumulation with time above the plates, the electric field changes causing the displacement current.

Displacement current arises due to the flow of electrons as a result of the varying magnetic fields set up on the plates of the capacitor when supplied with an AC voltage. It is important to note that a DC voltage does not induce any displacement current.

<em>Through this, phenomenon discovered by Maxwell,  current is able to flow in a resistor-capacitor circuit despite the absence of an electrically conductive path through the plates.</em>

The launching velocity of a missile is 20.0 m/s, and it is shot at 53º above the horizontal. What is the vertical component of t
Lyrx [107]

Given that

Velocity of missile (v) = 20 m/s ,

Angle of missile (Θ) = 53°

Determine ,   Vertical component  = v sin Θ

                                                        = 20 sin 53°

                                                        = 15.97 m/s

Earning Goal: To be able to calculate work done by a constant force directed at different angles relative to displacement
lana [24]

Answer:

the work done by the 30N force is 4156.92 J.

For this problem, they don´t ask you to determine the work of the total force applied in the block. They only want the work done for the force of 30N, with an angle of 30º respectively of the displacement and a traveled distance of 160m. So:

W=F·s·cos(α)=30N·160m·cos(30º)=4156.92J

8. An airplane is flying at 200 m/s when it touches the ground at the airport. It has a constant negative acceleration, and slow
Temka [501]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity u = 200m/s

Final velocity = 4m/s

Distance S = 4000m

Required

Acceleration

Substitute the given parameters into the formula

v² = u²+2as

4² = 200²+2a(4000)

16 = 40000+8000a

8000a = 16-40000

8000a = -39,984

a = - 39,984/8000

a = -4.998m/s²

Hence the acceleration is -4.998m/s²
