The speed of sound in dry air at 0°C is 331.3 meters per second.

       (1,000 meters) x (1 second / 331.3 meters)  =  3.018 seconds  .

An insulated beaker with negligible mass contains 0.250 kg of water at 75.0C. How many kilograms of ice at -20.0C must be droppe
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The amount of kilograms of ice at -20.0°C that must be dropped into the water to make the final temperature of the system 40.0°C = 0.0674 kg

Explanation:

Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = Heat lost by the water

Total Heat gained by ice = Heat used by ice to move from -20°C to 0°C + Heat used to melt at 0°C + Heat used to reach 40°C from 0°C

To do this, we require the specific heat capacity of ice, latent heat of ice and the specific heat capacity of water. All will be obtained from literature.

Specific heat capacity of ice = Cᵢ = 2108 J/kg.°C

Latent heat of ice = L = 334000 J/kg

Specific heat capacity of water = C = 4186 J/kg.°C

Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = mCᵢ ΔT + mL + mC ΔT = m(2108)(0 - (-20)) + m(334000) + m(4186)(40 - 0) = 42160m + 334000m + 167440m = 543600 m

Heat lost by water = mC ΔT = 0.25 (4186)(75 - 40) = 36627.5 J

543600 m = 36627.5

m = 0.0674 kg = 67.4 g of ice.

A spring on a horizontal surface can be stretched and held 0.5 m from its equilibrium position with a force of 60 N. a. How much
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

a)1815Joules b) 185Joules

Explanation:

Hooke's law states that the extension of a material is directly proportional to the applied force provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded. Mathematically;

F = ke where;

F is the applied force

k is the elastic constant

e is the extension of the material

From the formula, k = F/e

F1/e1 = F2/e2

If a force of 60N causes an extension of 0.5m of the string from its equilibrium position, the elastic constant of the spring will be ;

k = 60/0.5

k = 120N/m

a) To get the work done in stretching the spring 5.5m from its position,

Work done by the spring = 1/2ke²

Given k = 120N/m, e = 5.5m

Work done = 1/2×120×5.5²

Work done = 60× 5.5²

Work done = 1815Joules

b) work done in compressing the spring 1.5m from its equilibrium position will be gotten using the same formula;

Work done = 1/2ke²

Work done =1/2× 120×1.5²

Works done = 60×1.5²

Work done = 135Joules

What is the relation between the gravitational force acting between any two bodies object with their masses and the distance bet
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The strength of the gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors, mass and distance. the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. ... increases, the force of gravity decreases. If the distance is doubled, the force of gravity is one-fourth as strong as before.

A stationary 15 kg object is located in a table near the surface of the earth. The coefficient of static friction between the su
madreJ [45]

maximum static friction acting on the object will be

F_s = \mu_s mg

plug in all values

F_s = 0.40 \times 15 \times 9.8 = 58.8 N

So here it means that if applied force is less than or equal to 58.8 N then the object will remain stationary as friction can balance the external force upto this limit of external force

So here it is given that applied force is 20 N

so here object will not move due to this force and it will remain at rest always

due to this applied force

If someone throws a 3 gram fry accelerating at 5 meter/second2, what is the fry’s force?
Alex

Answer:

0.015 m/s2

Explanation:

Using Newtons 2nd law.

F = ma where F = Force applied, m = mass of the object and a = acceleration acquired.

So substitute the values in SI units.

m = \frac{3}{1000} kg

Therefore F = 0.003×5 = 0.015 m/s2
