Answer:
Approximately 
assuming no heat exchange between the mixture and the surroundings.
Explanation:
Consider an object of specific heat capacity 
and mass 
. Increasing the temperature of this object by 
would require 
.
Look up the specific heat of water: 
.
It is given that the mass of the water in this mixture is 
.
Temperature change of the water: 
.
Thus, the water in this mixture would have absorbed :
.
Thus, the energy that water absorbed was: 
.
Assuming that there was no heat exchange between the mixture and its surroundings. The energy that the water in this mixture absorbed, 
, would be the opposite of the energy that the metal in this mixture released.
Thus: 
(negative because the metal in this mixture released energy rather than absorbing energy.)
Mass of the metal in this mixture: 
.
Temperature change of the metal in this mixture: 
.
Rearrange the equation to obtain an expression for the specific heat capacity: 
. The (average) specific heat capacity of the metal pieces in this mixture would be:
.
Yes, eg., when 2 bodies move in opposite directions
, the relative velocity of each is greater than the individual velocity of either
Answer:
7.8
Explanation:
Here, an effort of 50 N is applied at the car key and overcomes the resistance(or load) of 390 N at the lid.
mechanical advantage
=load/effort
=390 N/50 N
=7.8
Answer:
a. 3.6 units
b. 1.4 units
c. 3.6 units
d. 6.1 units
Explanation:
The length of a vector is given by the following formula:
Length = √(x² + y²)
where,
x = x-component of vector
y = y-component of vector
a.
Here,
x = 2
y = 3
Therefore,
Length = √(2² + 3²)
Length = √13
<u>Length = 3.6 units</u>
<u />
b.
Here,
x = 1
y = 1
Therefore,
Length = √(1² + 1²)
Length = √2
<u>Length = 1.4 units</u>
<u />
c.
Here,
x = 2
y = -3
Therefore,
Length = √(2² + (-3)²)
Length = √13
<u>Length = 3.6 units</u>
<u />
d.
Here,
x = 1
y = -6
Therefore,
Length = √(1² + (-6)²)
Length = √37
<u>Length = 6.1 units</u>
