Answer:

1110 N

Explanation:

First, find the acceleration.

Given:

Δx = 300 m

v₀ = 85.5 km/h = 23.75 m/s

v = 0 m/s

Find: a

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(0 m/s)² = (23.75 m/s)² + 2a (300 m)

a = -0.94 m/s²

Find the force:

F = ma

F = (1180 kg) (-0.94 m/s²)

F = -1110 N

The magnitude of the force is 1110 N.

water in a cup and a kettle can have the same temperature even though the quantities are different . give reasons

jekas [21]

Answer:

The reason is because both are exposed to a virtually infinite heat sink, due to the virtually infinite mass and of the surrounding environment, compared to the sizes of either the cup or the kettle such that the equilibrium temperature, $T_{(equilibrium)}$ reached is the same for both the cup and the kettle as given by the relation;

$\infty M_{(environ)} \times c_{(environ)} \times (T_2 - T_1) = m_{1} \times c_{(water)} \times (T_3 - T_2) + m_{2} \times c_{(water)} \times (T_4 - T_2)$

Due to the large heat sink, T₂ - T₁ ≈ 0 such that the temperature of the kettle and that of the cup will both cool to the temperature of the environment
