The specific heat of the metal is 0.037 J(g^{\circ}C)

Explanation:

When a sample of a material absorbs energy, its temperature increases according to the equation

Q=m C_s \Delta T

where

Q is the amount of energy supplied to the sample

m is the mass of the sample

Cs is its specific heat capacity

\Delta T is the increase in temperature

In this problem,

m = 50.0 g

Q = 220.0 J

\Delta T =120.0^{\circ}C

Solving for C_s, we find the specific heat capacity:

C_s = \frac{Q}{m\Delta T}=\frac{220.0}{(50.0)(120.0)}=0.037 J(g^{\circ}C)

A visitor to a lighthouse wishes to determine the height of the tower. She ties a spool of thread to a small rock to make a simp
masha68 [24]

To solve this problem we must rely on the equations of the simple harmonic movement that define the period as a function of length and gravity as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

Where

l = Length

g = Gravity

Re-arrange to find L,

L = g (\frac{T}{2\pi})^2

Our values are given as

g = 9.81m/s

T = 10.1s

Replacing,

L = g (\frac{T}{2\pi})^2

L = (9.81) (\frac{10.1}{2\pi})^2

L = 25.348m

Therefore the height would be 25.348m

Determine the magnitude of the component of F directed along the axis of AB. Set F = 520 N .
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The component of F along AB is equal to Fcos45

F = 520N

Component along AB = 520cos45

= 367.7N

This is done by rotating the diamonds such that AB is now taken as the x-axis. Then the force F is resolved along AB.
