Answer:

100,048

Explanation:

K.E = 1/2 m (v)^2

K.E = 1^/2 * 74 * (52)^2

K.E = 100,048J =100.048kJ

Choose the correct explanation of whether the discovery should be considered reasonable or surprising.
earnstyle [38]

Answer: a. This would be exciting, but not surprising. Heat from Martian volcanoes may well be enough to melt water under the Mars' surface.

Explanation: It was recently observed by a team of geological researchers that there exist some activity at the crust of the planet mars. This activity are volcanic in nature and estimated to be about 10kilometers large. Also this volcanic eruptions in the planet mars core are described as among the largest in our solar system. Therefore it won't be a surprise that Heat from Martian volcanoes may well be enough to melt water under the Mars' surface.

<span>A portion of the atmosphere that becomes warmer than surrounding air will expand and rise. The warmer atmosphere the more space between the molecules. Therefore, warmer atmosphere </span><span>expands to allow more space for the molecules. Cool air on the other hand, contracts because the molecules in cool air need less space.</span>

The breaking car had 10,000 J of kinetic energy before breaking after breaking it had 2000 J of kinetic energy. How much thermal
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

8000J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the car lost during breaking are converted to thermal energy and are gained by the brakes.

Kinetic energy loss by car = thermal energy gained by brakes.

∆K.E = ∆T.E ....1

The Kinetic energy loss by car can be expressed as;

∆K.E = K.E1 - K.E2

Initial K.E = K.E1 = 10000J

Final K.E = K.E2 = 2000J

∆K.E= 10000J - 2000J = 8000J

From equation 1,

∆K.E = ∆T.E

∆T.E = 8,000J

thermal energy gain by brakes = 8,000J

A 5.4 g lead bullet moving at 261 m/s strikes a steel plate and stops. If all its kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Change in temperature ∆(tita) is 266.097°C

Explanation:

Ok kinectic energy = 1/2MV²

5.4 grams =( 5.4/1000) kilogram

Kinectic energy =( 1/2 )*(5.4/1000)*261²

Kinectic energy = 183.9267 joules

If kinetic energy = thermal energy

183.9267 joules = mc∆(tita)

Where ∆(tita) = change in temperature

And c = 128 J/kg

∆(tita) = 183.9267/((5.4/1000)*128)

∆(tita) = 266.097

∆(tita) = 266.097°C
