Answer:

The temperature of the brakes is 29.38°C.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of car = 750 kg

Speed = 23 m/s

Mass of iron = 15 kg

We need to calculate the kinetic energy of car

Using formula of kinetic energy

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times750\times23^2

K.E=198.375\ kJ

We need to calculate the temperature of the brakes

Using formula of energy

K.E=mc\Delta T

Put the value into the formula

198.375=15\times0.450\times\Delta T

\Delta T=\dfrac{198.375}{15\times0.450}

\Delta T=29.38^{\circ}C

Hence, The temperature of the brakes is 29.38°C.

A microwave oven uses 1,200 watts. It runs a total of 6 hours during the corse of a week. How much energy does the microwave ove
zzz [600]

Answer:

7.2 kilowatts

Explanation:

Energy= power x time

where:

power = 1,200watts to kilowatts is 1.2kw

time = 6hours

therefore,

energy = 1.2kw x 6hrs

=7.2 kilowatts

Answer:

The work done on the hose by the time the hose reaches its relaxed length is 776.16 Joules

Explanation:

The given spring constant of the of the spring, k = 88.0 N/m

The length by which the hose is stretched, x = 4.20 m

For the hose that obeys Hooke's law, and the principle of conservation of energy, the work done by the force from the hose is equal to the potential energy given to the hose

The elastic potential energy, P.E., of a compressed spring is given as follows;

P.E. = 1/2·k·x²

∴ The potential energy given to hose, P.E. = 1/2 × 88.0 N/m × (4.20 m)²

1/2 × 88.0 N/m × (4.20 m)² = 776.16 J

The work done on the hose = The potential energy given to hose, P.E. = 776.16 J

The net force experienced by an object is increased. What affect does this have on the acceleration of the object?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

Explanation:

hope it helps pls give me brainless
