A 2.7 kg block of ice at a temperature of 0.0◦C and an initial speed of 6.5 m/s slides across a level floor. If 3.3 × 105 J are

required to melt 1.0 kg of ice, how much ice melts, assuming that the initial kinetic energy of the ice block is entirely converted to the ice’s internal energy? Answer in units of kg.

Answer:

The mass of ice melted is: 1.728*10^{-4}(Kg)

Explanation:

We need to remember that the latent heat of fusion is related as:L_{f} =\frac{Q}{m}, where Lf is the latent heat of fusion, Q is the amount of heat and m is the mass, and when there is a change of phase, e.g ice into liquid water, the temperature remains constant during this process. Now we calculate the kinetic energy of the block as: E_{k}=\frac{m*v^{2} }{2}=\frac{2.7*6.5^{2} }{2} =57.02(Joules), so this energy is used to change ice into liquid water, and knowing L_{f}=3.3*10^{5}(Joules/Kg), then we can replace in the equation the latent heat of fusion and get the mass of ice melted as:m=\frac{L_{f} }{Q} =\frac{57.04}{3.3*10^{5} } =1.728*10^{-4}(Kg)

The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms separated by a large distance x is given by U(x)=−C6/x6, where C6 is a positive
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be "-\frac{6C_{6}}{x^{7}}". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The potential energy will be,

⇒  U(x)= -\frac{C_{6}}{x^6}

The expression of force will be,

⇒  F=-\frac{dU(x)}{dx}

⇒      =-(C_{6}(-6)x^{-7})

⇒      =-\frac{6C_{6}}{x^{7}}

Force seems to be appealing because the expression has been negative. It therefore means that the force or substance is acting laterally in on itself.

What is the kinetic energy in Joules of a 1,500kg car traveling at 75mph?What is the kinetic energy in Joules of a 1,500kg car t
Sergio039 [100]

Answer: 2812500 joules

Explanation:

Mass of car = 1500kg

Velocity of car = 75mph

Kinetic energy = ?

Recall that kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on its mass M and velocity, V

Thus, Kinetic energy = 1/2 x mv^2

= 1/2 x 1000kg x (75mph)^2

= 0.5 x 1000kg x (75mph)^2

= 500 x 5625

= 2812500 joules

Thus, the car travels with a kinetic energy of 2812500 joules

An object traveling 200 feet per second slows to 50 feet per second in 5 seconds. Calculate the acceleration of the object. Use
shtirl [24]

Answer:

-30m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity of object  = 200 feet/second

Final velocity of object  = 50 feet/second

Time of travel = 5 seconds

To calculate acceleration of the object we will find the rate of change of velocity with respect to time.

So, acceleration "a" is given by:

a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}

where vf represents final velocity, vi represents initial velocity and  is time of travel.

Plugging in values to evaluate acceleration.

a=\frac{50-200}{5}

a=\frac{-150}{5}

a= -30m/s

The acceleration of the object is -30m/s
