Answer:

The well is 23.3 m

Explanation:

As the bucket is lifted out of the well, energy in the man is being transferred to the bucket as gravitational potential energy.

Work done against gravity =  mass * height * acceleration due to to gravity

W  =  mgh

5 920 J = 25.9 kg * h * 9.8 m/s²

h = 23.3 m

A 125kg man buy a 6kg watermelon, a 3kg cantaloupe, and 6kgs of potatoes, he walks home with his purchases in a large bag. His w
Stells [14]

Answer:

350N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the man = 125kg

Mass of the watermelon = 6kg

Mass of cantaloupe  = 3kg

Mass of potatoes  = 6kg

Acceleration  = 2.5m/s²  

Unknown:

Force required to get home  = ?

Solution:

To find this force we use;

    Force  = mass x acceleration

mass  = 125 + 6 + 3 + 6  = 140kg

 So;

      Net force = 140 x 2.5  = 350N

Who is the founder of operant conditioning?
Gemiola [76]

Operant conditioning, sometimes called <em>instrumental learning</em>, was first extensively studied by Edward L. Thorndike, who observed the behavior of cats trying to escape from home-made puzzle boxes.

Hope this helps!

A force of 10 N acts on an object with a mass of 10 kg. What is its acceleration? A. 1 m/s2 B. 10 m/s2 C. 2 m/s2 D. 5 m/s2
Akimi4 [234]

The acceleration exerted by the object of mass 10 kg is \mathbf{1} m / \boldsymbol{s}^{2}

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to Newton’s second law of motion, any external force acting on a body will be directly proportional to the mass of the body as well as acceleration exerted by the body. So, the net external force acting on any object will be equal to the product of mass of the object with acceleration exerted by the object. Thus,

                  Force = Mass \times Acceleration

So,

                 Acceleration=\frac{\text {Force}}{\text {Mass}}

As the force acting on the object is stated as 10 N and the mass of the object is given as 10 kg, then the acceleration will be

                  Acceleration =\frac{10 \mathrm{N}}{10 \mathrm{kg}}=1 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

So, the acceleration exerted by the object of mass 10 kg is \mathbf{1} m / \boldsymbol{s}^{2}

liquid helium has a very low boiling point, 4.2 k, as well as a very low latent heat of vaporization, 2.00 104 j/kg. if energy i
aksik [14]

4.80 \times 10^3 \text { seconds }  long does it take to boil away 2.40 kg of the liquid.

Boiling point of He is $T=4.2 \mathrm{k}$

Latent heat of vapourization $L=2.00 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{kg}$

Power of electrical heater $P=30 \mathrm{w}$

mass of liquid is $m=2.40 \mathrm{~kg}$

amount of heat required to boil

$$\begin{aligned}&Q=m L \\&Q=2.40 \times 2 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J} \\&Q=4.80 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J}\end{aligned}$$

Power $p=\frac{\text { work }}{\text { time }}=\frac{\text { Energy }}{\text { Time }}$

$$\begin{aligned}P &=\frac{Q}{t} \\\text { tine } t &=\frac{Q}{P}=\frac{4.80 \times 10^4 \mathrm{~J}}{10} \\t &=4.80 \times 10^3 \text { seconds }\end{aligned}$$

The heat or energy that is absorbed or released during a substance's phase shift is known as latent heat. It could go from a solid to a liquid or from a liquid to a gas, or vice versa. Enthalpy, a characteristic of heat, is connected to latent heat.

The heat that is used or lost as matter melts and transitions from a solid to a fluid form at a constant temperature is known as the latent heat of fusion.

Due to the fact that during softening the heat energy anticipated to transform the substance from solid to fluid at air pressure is the latent heat of fusion and that the temperature remains constant during the process, the "enthalpy" of fusion is a latent heat. The enthalpy change of any quantity of material during dissolution is known as the latent heat of fusion.
