Water has a specific heat of 4.184

Physics
1 answer:
LuckyWell [14K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Water.

Explanation:

This means:

1) For the temperature of water to raise at any point to the next degree by 1°C, will require a specific heat capacity of  4.184  J/Kg°C

2) For the temperature of wood to raise at any point to the next degree by 1°C, will require a specific heat capacity of  1.760  J/Kg°C

Note that: specific heat is directly proportional to energy, therefore the higher the heat capacity, the higher the energy.

4.184  J/Kg°C is higher than 1.760  J/Kg°C, hence WATER needs more energy.

A 1280 kg car is moving 4.92 m/s. a 509 N force then pushes it forward for 28.7 m. what is its final KE?(unit=J)PLEASE HELP
laila [671]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: total energy = 30100.4 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (KE) is the energy due to the movement of and object, its units are joules (J)

Data

mass = 1280 kg

speed = 4.92 m/s

Force = 509 N

distance = 28.7 m

Formula

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

Work = Fd

Process

- Calculate Kinetic energy

- Calculate work

- Add both results

KE = \frac{1}{2} (1280)(4.92)^{2}

KE = 15492.1 J

Work = (509)(28.7)

Work = 14608.3 J

Total = 15492.1 + 14608.3

Total energy = 30100.4 J

How can we tell when forces are acting on an object (science)
iren [92.7K]

If an object's speed changes, or if it changes the direction it's moving in,
then there must be forces acting on it. There is no other way for any of
these things to happen.

Once in a while, there may be <em><u>a group</u></em> of forces (two or more) acting on
an object, and the group of forces may turn out to be "balanced".  When
that happens, the object's speed will remain constant, and ... if the speed
is not zero ... it will continue moving in a straight line.  In that case, it's not
possible to tell by looking at it whether there are any forces acting on it.
