Answer:

7800 J

Explanation:

Heat needed = mass of copper x specific heat of copper x change in temperature  

Change in temperature = 30ºC - 20ºC = 10ºC

Specific heat of copper = 390 J/kgºC

Mass of copper = 2 Kg

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get –  

Heat needed = 2 Kg x 390 J/kgºC x 10ºC

= 7800 J

A 2.0 kg mass weighs 10 Newtons on planet X. what is the acceleration due to gravity on planet X? Show the work.
KengaRu [80]

Answer: The gravitational acceleration on planet X is 5 N/kg

On Earth (with the gravitational accelartion g_E) the mass of 2kg will correspond to

F_E = m\cdot g_E = 2.0 \mbox{kg}\cdot 9.8 \frac{N}{kg} = 19.6 N

On planet X we are told the same measure is only 10N. Since there is a proportional relationship between g and F, we can calculate g_X:

\frac{F_E}{g_E}=\frac{F_X}{g_X} \implies\\g_x = \frac{g_E\cdot F_X}{F_E}=\frac{9.8 N/kg \cdot 10 N }{19.6N}=5 \frac{N}{kg}

The image illustrates that as the distance between two objects increases, the force of gravity ____________. A) decreases. B) in
emmainna [20.7K]
The image is missing (however it's not necessary to solve the problem).

The correct answer is A) decreases, because the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. In fact, the magnitude of the gravitational force between two object of mass M and m, at a distance d one from each other, is
F=G \frac{Mm}{d^2}
where G is the gravitational constant. As can be seen from the formula, if the distance d between the two object increases, the intensity of the force decreases.
