Answer:
20 [N], in the opposite direction of the first force.
Explanation:
We know that newton's second law stipulates that the sum of forces on a body must be equal to the product of mass by acceleration.
The negative sign means that the other force acting on the body must be in the opposite direction to the force of 30 [N]
Answer:
Smallest drop: Water
Largest drop: Dirt
Explanation:
The heat needed to change the temperature of a sample is:
(1)
with Q the heat (added(+) or removed(-)), c specific heat, m the mass and the change in temperature of the sample. So, if we solve (1) for
Sample A:
Sample B:
Sample C:
Note that the numbers 16744, 5400, 9450 are in the denominator of the expression that gives the drop on temperature. so, if Q is the same for the three samples the smallest denominator gives the largest drop and vice versa.
So, the smallest drop is Sample A and the largest is Sample C.
(Important: The minus sign of implies the temperature is dropping)
