Answer:

increase in temperature of water is 10° C

Explanation:

Given data

pizza = 500 kcal = 500000 calories

cold water = 50 L

to find out

increase in temperature of water

solution

we know heat formula that is

heat = m × specific heat × Δt

here m is mass = 50000 gram and Δt is change in temperature

and specific heat = 1 cal / gram C

so put here all value and find Δt

500000 = 50000 × 1  × Δt

Δt = 10° C

so increase in temperature of water is 10° C

How far from the surface of Earth is the magnitude of Earth's gravitational field equal to 7.86 N/kg?
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

7.48 x 10⁵ m

Explanation:

g = 7.86 N/kg

M = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg, R = 6.37 x 10⁶ m.

Find height h

g = GM/(R + h)²

(R + h)² = GM/g = 6.67 x 10⁺¹¹ x 5.97 x 10²⁴ /7.86 = 5.066 x 10¹³

R + h = 7.12 x 10⁶ m

so

h =  7.12 x 10⁶ - 6.37 x 10⁶ = 7.48 x 10⁵ m

A spaceship is headed toward Alpha Centauri at 0.999c. According to us, the distance to Alpha Centauri is about 4 light-years. H
aniked [119]

Answer:

According to the travellers, Alpha Centauri is <em>c) very slightly less than 4 light-years</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

For a stationary observer, Alpha Centauri is 4 light-years away but for an observer who is travelling close to the speed of light, Alpha Centauri is <em>very slightly less than 4 light-years. </em>The following expression explains why:

v = d / t

where

  • v is the speed of the spaceship
  • d is the distance
  • t is the time

Therefore,

d = v × t

d = (0.999 c)(4 light-years)

d = 3.996  light-years

This distance is<em> very slightly less than 4 light-years. </em>

An airplane has a starting velocity of 300m/s. It then accelerates at a rate of 45m/s2 for a time of 10s. What is it's final vel
Olenka [21]
A = (v - u) / t

a = acceleration
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
t = time

45 = (v - 300) / 10

45 × 10 = v - 300

450 + 300 = v

v = 750 m/s

Hope this helps!

a snail can move approximately 0.30 meters per minute.How many meters can the snail cover in 15 minutes ?
hichkok12 [17]
Sometimes if you have the word per, you need to multiply. In this problem, they are asking you to find the amount of meters a snail can travel per minute.They are giving you the amount of minutes, so in this case you multiply 15 times 0.30. The answer is 4.5 meters.
