Answer:

5682 kg

Explanation:

The momentum of a moving object is given by:

$p=mv$

where m is the mass of the object while v is its velocity.

In this problem, we know the velocity of the truck (v=22.0 m/s) and its momentum (p=125,000 kg m/s), therefore we can rearrange the previous formula to calculate the mass of the truck:

$m=\frac{p}{v}=\frac{125,000 kg m/s}{22.0 m/s}=5682 kg$

What is the Gravitational Potential Energy of a 30 kg box lifted 1.5 meters off the ground?

juin [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 30 × 9.8 × 1.5

We have the final answer as

If all this energy is added to 50 kg of water (the amount of water in a 165-lb person) at 37 ∘C, what is the final state of the

Reika [66]

Answer:

Vapors

Explanation:

We take into account that all the energy from the lightning has been transformed into steam.

$\Delta U = Q - W\\Q = mC \Delta T\\Q = mL$

We calculate the amount of energy required by water to convert into steam.

$Q_{water} = 50 \times \times 4180 \times (100-37)\\= 1.132 \times 10^7 \ J$

$Q_{change\ to\ steam} = 50 \times 2.256 \times 106 \\= 1.128 \times 10^8 \ J$

$Q_{total} = 1.132 \times 10^7 + 1.128 \times 10^8\\= 1.126 \times 10^8 \ J$

From the lightning we received $10^{10} \ J$ of energy, out of which $1.126 \times 10^8$ has been used to convert the water into steam.

Energy left = $10^{10} - 1.126 \times 10^8 = 9.88 \times 10^9 \ J$

We use this energy to convert steam into vapors.

$Q = \Delta E$

$Q = \Delta E = mc (T_{f} - T{i})\\T_{f} = \frac {\Delta E}{mc} + T_{i}\\ \\T_{f} = 100 + \frac{9.88 \times 10^{10}}{50 \times 1970}\\T_{f} = 100 + 10^8\\T_{f} = 10 ^{ \ 8} \ {^ \circ } C$

With this temperature, we can easily interpret that the vapors will be dissociated in hydrogen and oxygen particles.
