More than five million cubic kilometers of ice have been identified.
Answer:
a)
, b) 
Explanation:
a) According to the First Law of Thermodinamics, the system is not reporting any work, mass or heat interactions. Besides, let consider that such box is rigid and, therefore, heat contained inside is the consequence of internal energy.

The internal energy for a monoatomic ideal gas is:

Let assume that cubical box contains just one kilomole of monoatomic gas. Then, the temperature is determined from the Equation of State for Ideal Gases:



The thermal energy contained by the gas is:


b) The physical model for the cat is constructed from Work-Energy Theorem:

The speed of the cat is obtained by isolating the respective variable and the replacement of every known variable by numerical values:



Answer:

Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we mus start by drawing a free body diagram of the given situation (See attached picture).
From the free body diagram we can now do a sum of forces in the x and y direction. Let's start with the y-direction:



so:

now we can go ahead and do a sum of forces in the x-direction:

the sum of forces in x is 0 because it's moving at a constant speed.



so now we solve for theta. We can start by factoring mg so we get:

we can divide both sides into mg so we get:

this tells us that the problem is independent of the mass of the object.

we now divide both sides of the equation into
so we get:


so we now take the inverse function of tan to get:

so now we can find our angle:

so

Answer:
d. 5 ohms
Explanation:
For resistors in parallel, the equivalent resistance is found with:
1/Req = ∑(1/R)
1/R = 1/15 + 1/15 + 1/15
1/R = 3/15
R = 15/3
R = 5
