<span>The specific heat (or the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by 1 degree Celsius) of copper is about 0.386 J/g/degree Celsius. This means that if we supply 0.386 J of energy to 1 gram of copper, its temperature will increase by 1 degree Celsius.</span>
Answer:
P = VI = (IR)I = I2R
Explanation:
What the equation means is that if you double the current you end up with 4 times the power loss. It's like the area of carpet you need for a room - if you make the room twice as long and twice as wide you need 4x as much carpet. The physical explanation is that the voltage difference along a wire depends on the current - more current flowing with a resistance means more voltage (pressure of electricity if you like) is built up.
This extra voltage means more power. So if you double the current your would double the power, but you also double the voltage which doubles the power again = 4x as much power. P = VI = (IR)I = I2R
I hope this helps you out, if I'm wrong, just tell me.
Answer:
4.42 x 10⁷ W/m²
Explanation:
A = energy absorbed = 500 J
η = efficiency = 0.90
E = Total energy
Total energy is given as
E = A/η
E = 500/0.90
E = 555.55 J
t = time = 4.00 s
Power of the beam is given as
P = E /t
P = 555.55/4.00
P = 138.88 Watt
d = diameter of the circular spot = 2.00 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m
Area of the circular spot is given as
A = (0.25) πd²
A = (0.25) (3.14) (2 x 10⁻³)²
A = 3.14 x 10⁻⁶ m²
Intensity of the beam is given as
I = P /A
I = 138.88 / (3.14 x 10⁻⁶)
I = 4.42 x 10⁷ W/m²
The recoil velocity of the astronaut is -0.070 m/s
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by using the principle of conservation of momentum: in fact, in absence of external forces, the total momentum of the astronaut-wrench system must be conserved.
At the beginning, their total momentum is zero:
(1)
Later, after the astronaut throws the wrench, the total momentum is
(2)
where
m = 0.725 kg is the mass of the wrench
v = 13.8 m/s is the velocity of the wrench
M = 143 kg is the mass of the astronaut
V is the recoil velocity of the astronaut
Since momentum is conserved, (1) = (2), and so we can find V:
