The final answer is -322, 320 Joules. The solution for the problem is:

The equation that must be used in this problem is:

U = mCp(Tf-Ti)

where:
U = energy released or absorbed in Joules
m = mass in kg
Cp = specific heat of material in J/kg-C
Tf = final temperature, C
Ti = initial temperature, C

Looking up the Cp of granite gives a value of 790 J/kg-C.

U = 17kg (790 J/kg-C) (21-45)
<span>U = - 322, 320 Joules (negative means heat is released)</span>

What evidence do we have that Earth has a magnetic field surrounding the planet?
Ber [7]
A compass works the way it does because Earth has a magnetic field that looks a lot like the one in a magnet. The Earth's field is completely invisible, but it can be felt by a compass needle on the Earth's surface, and it reaches thousands of miles out into space.

A tennis ball is hit into the air with a racket. When is the balls kinetic energy the greatest?
madam [21]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is maximum when the player hits the ball.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy =\frac{1}{2} mv^2, where m is the mass and v is the velocity.

So kinetic energy is proportional to square of velocity.

Velocity is maximum when the player hits the ball.

So kinetic energy is maximum when the player hits the ball.

Calculate the potential energy of a body of a mass 2kg held 4 meters above the ground if g=10m/s?​
Drupady [299]

Answer:

16000

Explanation:

Mass(m)=2Kg (1kg= 1ooo g then 2 kg=2000 g)

Velocity(v)= 4 meter

Acceleration due to gravity (g)=10m/s

We know that,

P.E= 1/2 mv^2

or, 1/2 × 2ooo × 4^2

or, 1/2×2000 ×16

or, 2000×8

Therefore= 16000
