2. A metal weighing 50.0 g absorbs 220.0 J of heat when its temperature increases by

Physics

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)

People living at Earth’s equator are traveling at a constant speed of about 1,670 km/h as Earth spins on its axis. What are thes
Vlada [557]
The people living around the equator experience acceleration. Acceleration is the change in speed or/and direction. When on a rotating body, the speed does not change it is only the direction that changes as it rotates.When on a rotating body you do not have to change speed but only direction. In a normal situation when you are traveling on a circle you will never have a straight line.

You are in your car at rest when the traffic light turns green. You place your coffee cup on the horizontal dash and hit the gas
umka21 [38]

Answer:

(d) Negative.

Explanation:

let's test each at a time.

(a) It can't be 0, because cup would slide back other wise.

(b) Positive, well if forward is positive, than the work done against the forward acceleration must be negative , so it can't be positive.

(c) Equal to non-conservative work done by the car's engine.

well no, because work done by car's engine dosen't go all of it into getting car to move, so it can't be that.

(d) negative, this look like it, because work that friction does must be nagative to counteract positive thrust of car which is positive and in forward direction.

(d) this can't be true.

So the answer is (d) negative.

<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

-The total momentum of an isolated system is constant.

-The total momentum of any number of particles is equal to the vector sum of the momenta of the individual particles.

-The vector sum of forces acting on a particle equals the rate of change of momentum of the particle with respect to time.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Momentum is a vector quantity, and therefore we need to use vector addition when summing together the momenta of the multiple bodies which make up a system.
  • The vector sum of forces acting on a particle is equivalent to the rate of change of momentum of the particle with respect to time. This is according to the Newton's second Law of motion. In mathematical terms, ֿF = d ֿp/dt, that is F= ma.
  • According to the Law of conservation of Momentum, or a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.
