A 5 kg block of copper (specific heat capacity = 385 J/kg°C) at 20°C is given

Physics
1 answer:
monitta3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

44^{\circ}C

Explanation:

When heat energy is supplied to a substance, its temperature increases according to the equation:

Q=mC\Delta T

where

Q is the energy supplied

m is the mass of the substance

C is the specific heat capacity

\Delta T is the increase in temperature

For the block of copper in this problem:

m = 5 kg

C = 385 J/kg°C

Q = 46,200 J

Therefore, the increase in temperature is

\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mC}=\frac{46,200}{(5)(385)}=24^{\circ}C

And since the initial temperature is 20°C, the final temperature will be

T_f=20^{\circ}C+\Delta T=44^{\circ}C

A sled of mass 2.12 kg has an initial speed of 5.49 m/s across a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between
Darya [45]

Answer:

The speed of the sled is 3.56 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 2.12 kg

Initial speed = 5.49 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.229

Distance = 3.89 m

We need to calculate the acceleration of sled

Using formula of acceleration

a = \dfrac{F}{m}

Where, F = frictional force

m = mass

Put the value into the formula

a=\dfrac{\mu mg}{m}

a=\mu g

a=0.229\times9.8

a=2.244\ m/s^2

We need to calculate the speed of the sled

Using equation of motion

v^2=u^2-2as

Where, v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

s = distance

Put the value in the equation

v ^2=(5.49)^2-2\times2.244\times3.89

v=\sqrt{(5.49)^2-2\times2.244\times3.89}

v=3.56\ m/s

Hence, The speed of the sled is 3.56 m/s.

The bus is heading southwest at 56 miles per hour is it veloctiy or speed
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

Its velocity

Explanation:

Velocity is speed with a direction.

Speed is the rate at which someone or something is able to move or operate.

In the question its telling us that the bus is going 56 miles per hour but it aslo gives us a direction, in this case is southwest.
