Answer:

the  heat absorbed by the block of copper is 74368.476J

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this problem use the first law of thermodynamics that states that the heat applied to a system is the difference between the initial and final energy considering that the mass and the specific heat do not change so we can infer the following equation

Q=mCp(T2-T1)

Where

Q=heat

m=mass=2.3kg

Cp=0.092 kcal/(kg C)=384.93J/kgK

T2=Final temperatura= 90C

T1= initial temperature=6 C

solving

Q=(2.3kg)(384.93\frac{J}{kgC} )(90C-6C)=74368.476J

the  heat absorbed by the block of copper is 74368.476J

A girl and boy pull in opposite directions on a stuffed animal. The girl exerts a force of 3.5 N. The mass of the stuffed animal
Dmitry [639]
The resultant force on the animal = Resultant mass * total acceleration 
F = 0.2 * 2.5 to the right
F = 0.5 to the right.

As, girl exerting a force of 3.5 N & it's not mentioned that she is in right or left, so the force exerting by boy would be either:
3.5-0.5 = 3  OR  3.5+0.5 = 4

If boy exerting a greater force then, answer will be 4 N & if girl exerting a greater force the, answer will be 3 N

Hope this helps!

It has been argued that power plants should make use of off-peak hours to generate mechanical energy and store it until it is ne
sdas [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

90 rpm = 90 / 60 rps

= 1.5 rps

= 1.5 x 2π rad /s

angular velocity of flywheel

ω = 3π rad /s

Let I be the moment of inertia of flywheel

kinetic energy = (1/2) I ω²

(1/2) I ω² = 10⁷ J

I = 2 x  10⁷ / ω²

=2 x  10⁷ / (3π)²

= 2.2538 x 10⁵ kg m²

Let radius of wheel be R

I = 1/2 M R² , M is mass of flywheel

= 1/2 πR² x t x d x R² , t is thickness , d is density of wheel .

1/2 πR⁴ x t x d = 2.2538 x 10⁵

R⁴ = 2 x 2.2538 x 10⁵ / πt d

= 4.5076 x 10⁵ / 3.14 x .1 x 7800

= 184

R= 3.683 m .

diameter = 7.366 m .

b ) centripetal accn required

= ω² R

= 9π² x 3.683

= 326.816 m /s²

A 100 kg bag of sand has a weight on 100 N. When dropped its acceleration is what?
Lyrx [107]
100N describes the weight of the sandbag, while 100kg is the mass of the sandbag.

To calculate acceleration, divide your weight by the mass, thus the accleration is:

100N/100kg = 1(m/s^2)

Two particles in a high-energy accelerator experiment are approaching each other head-on, each with a speed of 0.9520c as measur
Over [174]

Answer:

the magnitude of the velocity of one particle relative to the other is 0.9988c

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Velocities of the two particles = 0.9520c

Using Lorentz transformation

Let relative velocity be W, so

v_r = ( u + v ) / ( 1 + ( uv / c²) )

since each particle travels with the same speed,

u = v

so

v_r = ( u + u ) / ( 1 + ( u×u / c²) )  

v_r = 2(0.9520c) / ( 1 + ( 0.9520c )² / c²) )  

we substitute

v_r = 1.904c / ( 1 + ( (0.906304 × c² ) / c²) )  

v_r = 1.904c / ( 1 + 0.906304 )

v_r = 1.904c / 1.906304

v_r = 0.9988c

Therefore, the magnitude of the velocity of one particle relative to the other is 0.9988c
