.A 0.2-kg aluminum plate, initially at 20°C, slides down a 15-m-long surface, inclined at a 30 angle to the horizontal. The forc

e of kinetic friction exactly balances the component of gravity down the plane so that the plate, once started, glides down at constant velocity. If 90% of the mechanical energy of the system is absorbed by the aluminum, what is its temperature increase at the bottom of the incline? (Specific heat for aluminum is 900J/kg⋅°C.)
a. 0.16 C°b. 0.07 C°c. 0.04 C°d. 0.03 C°

To solve this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Work according to the Force and distance, as well as the concepts related to energy lost-or gained-by heat. Mathematically the energy corresponding to heat is given as:

Q = mC_p(\Delta T)

Where,

m = mass

C_p= Specific heat

\Delta T = Change in Temperature

At the same time the Work made by the Force and the distance is given as:

W = F*d \rightarrow W=mg*d

As the force is applied at an angle of 30 degrees, the efficient component would be given by the vertical then the work / energy would be determined as:

W = mg*dsin(30)

W = (15m)(0.2kg)(9.81)(sin30)

W = 13.24J

Now this energy is used to heat the aluminum. We can find the change at the temperature as follow:

Q = mC_p(\Delta T)

13.24 = (0.2)(900)(\Delta T)

\Delta T = 0.0736 \°C

Therefore the correct answer is B.

Answer:

decline

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that these types of firms are in the decline stage of the product life cycle. This stage refers to when a product has already passed it's peak potential and sales begin to decline until production is ultimately halted and the product dies off. Which is exactly what is happening to the LP's since everyone has moved on to digital downloads.

In an experiment the mass of a calorimeter is 36.35 g . Express in micrometer ,millimetre and kg.
Andru [333]

Answer:

1. 36.35 g = 36.35E15 micrometer.

II. 36.35 g = 363.5 millimetre.

III. 36.35 g = 0.03635 kilogram.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

  • Mass of calorimeter = 36.35 grams

To convert the mass in grams (g) to;

I. Micrometer

<u>Conversion:</u>

1 g = 1 exp 15 um

36.35 g = X um

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X = 36.35 * 1 exp 15 = 36.35 exp 15 um

<em>36.35 g = 36.35E15 micrometer</em>

II. Millimetre

<u>Conversion:</u>

1 g = 1 milliliter

36.35 g = X milliliter

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X = 36.35 * 1 = 36.35 milliliter

Next, we would convert milliliter to millimetre;

1 milliliter = 10 millimetre

36.35 milliliter = X millimetre

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X = 36.35 * 10 = 363.5 millimetre

<em>36.35 g = 363.5 millimetre</em>

III. Kilogram

<u>Conversion:</u>

1000 grams = 1 kilogram

36.35 g = X kilogram

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X * 1000 = 36.35 * 1

Dividing both sides by 1000, we have;

X = 36.35/1000 = 0.03635 kilogram

<em>36.35 g = 0.03635 kilogram</em>

<u>Note:</u>

  • g is the symbol for grams.
  • Exp (E) means exponential = 10
  • um is the symbol for micrometer.

Who is responsible of refraction light 1/3 in eye
alexandr1967 [171]

The cornea is  responsible of refraction light 1/3 in eye.

<h3>What is the function of the cornea?</h3>

In addition to the protective function, it plays a fundamental role in the formation of vision. Transparent, it works like a lens over the iris, focusing light from the pupil towards the retina.

Normally, the cornea and lens deflect (refract) incoming light rays, focusing them on the retina. The shape of the cornea is fixed, but the lens changes shape to focus on objects at different distances from the eye.
