Explain Newton's third law in your own words.

Kazeer [188]

Newton's third law states "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

What this is pretty much saying is that for every action, there is a consequence. One force connects and triggers another.

What amount of heat is required to raise the temperature of 200 g of water by 15°C (the specific heat of water is 1 cal/g°C)

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Heat energy required (Q) = 3,000 J

Explanation:

Find:

Mass of water (M) = 200 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 15°C

Specific heat of water (C) = 1 cal/g°C

Find:

Heat energy required (Q) = ?

Computation:

Q = M × ΔT × C

Heat energy required (Q) = Mass of water (M) × Change in temperature (ΔT) × Specific heat of water (C)

Heat energy required (Q) = 200 g × 15°C × 1 cal/g°C

Heat energy required (Q) = 3,000 J

Consider three identical electric bulbs of power P. Two of bulbs are connected in series and the third one is connected in paral

Tamiku [17]

Answer: 3P/2

Explanation: Let the resistance of the bulbs be R.

now lets consider a Voltage V is supplied to the parallel circuit such that

$P=VI=V^2/R$

V=IR

both single bulb( bulb 3) and the two bulbs ( bulb 1 and bulb 2) are provided the same Voltage

( as the voltage remains same in parallel circuit)

we can calculate the Current across both circuits

At Bulb 3

Current 1=V/R

Power1=Voltage * Current1

Power1=V*V/R

Power1=P

At Bulb 1 and Bulb 2

Total Resistance= R+R=2R

$Current2=\frac{V}{2R}$

Power2=Voltage * Current2

$Power2=V*\frac{V}{2R} \\Power2=\frac{V^2}{2R} \\Power2=P/2$

$TotalPower=Power1+Power2\\TotalPower=P+P/2\\TotalPower=\frac{3P}{2}$

What is the acceleration of a 7 kg mass if the force of 70 N is used to move it toward the Earth?

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m} \\$

m is the mass

f is the force

From the question we have

$a = \frac{70}{7} = 10 \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
