Answer;

All the above

Explanation;

The element carbon is the most important chemical constituent of many organic matter, ranging from fossil fuels to complex molecules such as DNA and RNA, that control genetic reproduction in organisms.

This element is found stored in major sinks found on the earth;

as organic molecules in living and dead organisms found in the biosphere;
as the gas carbon dioxide in the atmosphere;
as organic matter in soils;
in the lithosphere as fossil fuels and sedimentary rock deposits in the oceans as dissolved atmospheric carbon dioxide and
as calcium carbonate shells in marine organisms.

Steel blocks A and B, which have equal masses, are at TA = 300 oC and T8 = 400 oC. Block C, with mc - 2mA, is at TC = 350 oC. Bl

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

b) TA = TB = TC

Explanation:

When put in contact each other, and isolated, both blocks will exchange heat till they reach to thermal equilibrium.
During this process, the body at a higher temperature, will loss heat, tat it will be gained by the other body.
The equilibrium condition will be reached when the following equation be met:

$\Delta Q = c_{st}* m_{A} * (T_{fin} - T_{0A} ) = c_{st}* m_{B} * (T_{0B} - T_{fin} )$

Replacing by the values of T₀A = 300º C, and T₀B = 400ºC, and simplifying common terms as mA = mB, we can solve for Tfin, as follows:

$(400 \ºC - T_{fin}) = (T_{fin} - 300 \ºC) \\ \\ 2* T_{fin} = 700\ºC\\ \\ T_{fin} = 350\ºC$

So, when both blocks reach to equilibrium, they will be at a common final temperature, 350ºC.
When put in contact with block C, at the same temperature, at that instant, the three blocks will have the same common temperature of 350 ºC.
So, option b) is the right one.

A 6.5 kg rock thrown down from a 120m high cliff with initial velocity 18 m/s down. Calculate

Olegator [25]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must use the principle of energy conservation. Which tells us that the energy of a body will always be the same regardless of where it is located. For this case we have two points, point A and point B. Point A is located at the top at 120 [m] and point B is in the middle of the cliff at 60 [m].

$E_{A}=E_{B}$

The important thing about this problem is to identify the types of energy at each point. Let's take the reference level of potential energy at a height of zero meters. That is, at this point the potential energy is zero.

So at point A we have potential energy and since a velocity of 18 [m/s] is printed, we additionally have kinetic energy.

$E_{A}=E_{pot}+E_{kin}\\E_{A}=m*g*h+\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}$

At Point B the rock is still moving downward, therefore we have kinetic energy and since it is 60 [m] with respect to the reference level we have potential energy.

$E_{B}=m*g*h+\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}$

Therefore we will have the following equation:

$(6.5*9.81*120)+(0.5*6.5*18^{2} )=(6.5*9.81*60)+(0.5*6.5*v_{B}^{2} )\\3.25*v_{B}^{2} =4878.9\\v_{B}=\sqrt{1501.2}\\v_{B}=38.75[m/s]$

The kinetic energy can be easily calculated by means of the kinetic energy equation.

$KE_{B}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v_{B}^{2}\\KE_{B}=0.5*6.5*(38.75)^{2}\\KE_{B}=4878.9[J]$

In order to calculate the velocity at the bottom of the cliff where the reference level of potential energy (potential energy equal to zero) is located, we must pose the same equation, with the exception that at the new point there is only kinetic energy.

$E_{A}=E_{C}\\6.5*9.81*120+(0.5*9.81*18^{2} )=0.5*6.5*v_{C}^{2} \\v_{c}^{2} =\sqrt{2843.39}\\v_{c}=53.32[m/s]$

On a part-time job, you are asked to bring a cylindrical iron rod of density 7800 kg/m3, length 88.8 cm and diameter 2.30 cm fro

vichka [17]

Answer:

w = 28.25 N

Explanation:

To do this, we need to use two expressions.

First, to calculate the weight of any object, we use the 2nd law of newton. In this case, the weight is:

w = m*g (1)

However we do not have the mass of the rod. We need to calculate that. To calculate the mass, we'll use the expression of density which is:

d = m/V

From here, we solve for mass:

m = d * V (2)

Finally, we can know the volume of the rod, because is cylindrical, therefore, the volume of a cylinder is:

V = π * r² * h (3)

So, in resume, we need to solve for the volume of the rod, then, the mass ans finally the weight. Let's calculate the volume of the rod, converting the units of centimeter to meters, just dividing by 100:

diameter = 2.3 cm ---> radius = 2.3/2 = 1.15 cm -----> 0.0115 m

Length or height = 88.8 cm ----> 0.888 m

Replacing in (3):

V = π * (0.0115)² * 0.888

V = 3.69x10⁻⁴ m

Now, let's use (2) to calculate the mass:

m = 7800 * 3.69x10⁻⁴

m = 2.88 kg

Finally for the weight, we'll use expression (1):

w = 2.88 * 9.81

<h2>w = 28.25 N</h2><h2>And this is the weight of the rod.</h2>
