It is called the specific latent heat of fusion. C.

This is the heat change required in changing 1kg of a solid to its liquid and it occurs at the melting point. It is not associated with temperature change.

If it is to convert 1kg of liquid to vapor at its boiling point it is called the latent heat of vaporization.<span />

The force between two charged bodies is called ______________.
stepladder [879]

The Coulomb force between two or more charged bodies is the force between them due to Coulomb's law. If the particles are both positively or negatively charged, the force is repulsive; if they are of opposite charge, it is attractive. ... Like the gravitational force, the Coulomb force is an inverse square law.

A mass on a spring with k=88.7 N/m oscillates 15 times in 9.24s. what is the objects mass? unit=kg?
sweet [91]

The mass on the spring is 0.86 kg

Explanation:

The period of a mass-spring system is given by the equation

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

where

m is the mass

k is the spring constant

In this problem, we have:

k = 88.7 N/m is the spring constant

The system makes 15 oscillations in 9.24 s: therefore, the period of the system is

T=\frac{9.24}{15}=0.62 s

Now we can re-arrange the first equation  to solve for the mass:

m=k(\frac{T}{2\pi})^2=(88.7)(\frac{0.62}{2\pi})^2=0.86 kg

Calculate the potential energy of a 20-kg sled at 40 meters
irakobra [83]

Answer: 7840N

Explanation:

Given that

Potential energy = ?

Mass of sled = 20-kg

Distance = 40 meters

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

Recall that potential energy is the energy possessed by a body at rest

i.e potential energy = mass m x acceleration due to gravity g x distance h

P.E = mgh

P.E = 20kg x 9.8m/s^2 x 40m

P.E = 7840N

Thus, the potential energy of the sled is 7840N
