Answer:

5 kilocalories

Explanation:

The heat is a way of energy and it can be measured by calories, but the calories of the heat (thermal calories) are different for the food Calories.

1 food Calories = 1000 thermal calories

5 food Calories = 5000 calories = 5 kilocalories

Thus, when a piece of candy is totally burned, the thermal calorie presented in it will be released as heat.

The world speed record on water was set on October
Luda [366]

Answer: Remember speed is distance divided by time, so if he travels 1000 m in 7.045 s, his speed is

(1000 m)/(7.045 s) = 141.9 m/s.

Note there are 1609 metres in a mile, or 1 mi = 1609 m, so m = 1/1609 mi, or

141.9/1609 mi/s = 0.08822 mi/s. Now, note that 1 h = 3600 s, so the speed is

0.08822*3600 mi/h = 317.6 mi/h.

A mass on a spring A oscillates at twice the frequency of the same mass on spring B. Which statement is correct?A.The spring con
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

A.The spring constant for B is one quarter of the spring constant for A.

Explanation:

If spring A oscillates at twice the frequency of spring B, and period is frequency inverted. It means spring B has a period twice of spring A's.

T_B = 2T_A

As T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}, and the 2 springs have the same mass

2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k_B}} = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k_A}}

\sqrt{k_A} = 2\sqrt{B}

k_A = 4k_B

k_B = k_A/4

So A.The spring constant for B is one quarter of the spring constant for A. is the correct answer.
