Answer:

7.19 * 10^14J

Explanation:

Given that

Density of water Pwater= 1000kg/m3

R=2.1km = 2.1*10^3m

H= 2.3cm. = 2.3*10^-2m

Lv water= 2256 * 10^3J/kg

First, mass of water need to be calculated, using an imaginary cylinder

Density= Mass /Volume

Mass= Density* Volume

Volume of a cylinder= πR2h

Therefore mass= PπR2H

= 1000 * π * (2.1 *10^3)^2 * (2.3 * 10^-2)

= 3.18 *10^8

Heat Released Qv = mLV

= 3.18*10^8 * 2236*10^3

= 7.19 * 10^14J

Which illustration represent the substance at a higher temperature? Explain.
mamaluj [8]

The addition of heat energy to a system always causes the temperature of that system to increase. This is always true because you are adding heat of a substance to increase  its temperature. For example, you are going to drink a cup of coffee. And you wanted it hot to boost your attention. So you have to use hot water. In order for your water to become hot or warm, you need boil it in a kettle. Note that you are going to use an electric stove. The electric stove gets it energy from the source giving it a hotter temperature to the water in the kettle. You are applying heat energy to warm the water. So, the statement is true.

A hot iron ball of mass 200 g is cooled to a temperature of 22°C from 100°C. How much heat was
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Q= -6900 J

Explanation:

use the formula Q=mC(T_2 - T_1) and sub in givens

Q=mC(T_2 - T_1)

Q= (200 g)(0.444 J/g°C)(22-100)

Q= -6900 J

The negative sign means heat is lost, which agrees with the decrease in temperature

If the mass of a material is 87 grams and the volume of the material is 14 cm3, what would the density of the material be?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

6.214g/cm³

Explanation:

The question is on density of a material

Density=mass/volume

Given, mass=87grams   and volume= 14 cm³  density=?

Density=m/v 87/14 =6.214g/cm³

The work done to compress a spring with a force constant of 290.0 N/m a total of 12.3 mm is: a) 3.57 J b) 1.78 J c) 0.0219 J d)
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Work done, W = 0.0219 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Force constant of the spring, k = 290 N/m

Compression in the spring, x = 12.3 mm = 0.0123 m

We need to find the work done to compress a spring. The work done in this way is given by :

W=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 290\times (0.0123)^2

W = 0.0219 J

So, the work done by the spring is 0.0219 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

The total resistance of a 15-ohm, an 65-ohm and a 35-ohm resistor connected in parallel ​
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

I think its 9.0397 Ohms

Explanation:

take the reciprocal of all the resistances: 1/15, 1/65, 1/35

then add them: = 151/1365

then reciprocal the answer: =1365/151

And chuck it on a calculator: =9.04 Ohms

I think this is right but I'm not entirely sure. Tell me if I'm right by the way!
