Q = mcθ
Where m = mass of water in kg.
c = specific heat capacity in kJ/kg⁰C, c for water = 4200 kJ/kg⁰C
θ = temperature rise in ⁰C
Q = 100*4200* 20 Note here the temperature rise is 20 ⁰C
Q = 8 400 000 J
In calories, 4.2 J = 1 Calorie
= 8 400 000 / 4.2 = 200 000
Q = 200 000 Calories
Answer:
a) 19440 km/h²
b) 10 sec
Explanation:
v₀ = initial velocity of the car = 45 km/h
v = final velocity achieved by the car = 99 km/h
d = distance traveled by the car while accelerating = 0.2 km
a = acceleration of the car
Using the kinematics equation
v² = v₀² + 2 a d
99² = 45² + 2 a (0.2)
a = 19440 km/h²
b)
t = time required to reach the final velocity
Using the kinematics equation
v = v₀ + a t
99 = 45 + (19440) t
t = 0.00278 h
t = 0.00278 x 3600 sec
t = 10 sec
Answer:
<h3>62.5N</h3>
Explanation:
The pressure at one end of the piston is equal to the pressure on the second piston.
Pressure = Force/Area
F1/A1 = F2/A2
Given
F1 = 250N
A1 = 2.0m²
A2 = 0.5m²
F2 = ?
Substituting the given values in the formula;
250/2 = F2/0.5
cross multiply
250*0.5 = 2F2
125 = 2F2
F2 = 125/2
F2 = 62.5N
Hence the force needed to lift this piston if the area of the second piston is 0.5 m^2 is 62.5N
Answer:
Elastic potential energy, E = 3.26 J
Explanation:
It is given that,
Force constant of the spring, k = 5.2 N/m
Relaxed length of the spring, X = 2.45 m
When the mass is attached to the end of the spring, the vertical length of the spring is, x' = 3.57 m
To find,
The elastic potential energy stored in the spring.
Solution,
The extension in the length of the spring is given by :


x = 1.12 m
The elastic potential energy of the spring is given by :


E = 3.26 J
So, the elastic potential energy stored in the spring is 3.26 joules.
