W=mg

Explanation:

the weight of an object on a planet is given by the law:

W=mg

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the value of the gravitational acceleration on the planet

While the mass of the object, m, depends only on the properties of the object (so, it is the same on every planet), the weight W, depends on the value of g, which is different from planet to planet, therefore the weight of an object changes if we move it to another planet.

In this case to find the weight of an object you must use the formula.

W = mg

If the resistance of an electric circuit is 12 ohms and the voltage in the circuit is 6 ov, the current flowing through the circ
Anestetic [448]

The current in the circuit =5 A

Explanation:

Voltage = 60 V

resistance= 12 ohm

using ohm's law V=i R

60= i (12)

i=60/12

i=5 A

Thus the current flowing in the circuit = 5 A

An amount of energy is added to ice, raising its temperature from -10°C to -5°C. A larger amount of energy is added to the sam
lara [203]

Answer:

The correct option is;

B) The specific heat of ice is less than that of water.

Explanation:

Here we have

Let the amount of energy added to the ice at -10 C to raise the temperature to -5 C be X J

Let the amount of energy added to the water at 15 C to raise the temperature to 20 C be Y J

We know that the heat required, ΔQ to raise the temperature of a substance is given by

ΔQ = m·c·Δθ

Where:

m = Mass of the substance

c = Specific heat capacity

Δθ = Temperature change

Since the mass of the ice and the water are the same, so also is the change in temperature, (-5 - (-10) = 5 and 20 - 15 = 5) we have

for m₂·c₂·Δθ₂ > m₁·c₁·Δθ₁

Where:

m₁, c₁, Δθ₁, is for the ice and m₂, c₂, Δθ₂ is for the water and

m₁ = m₂

Δθ₁ = Δθ₂

Therefore,

c₂ > c₁ = c₁ < c₂

That is the specific heat capacity of the ice is lesser than the specific heat capacity of the water.
