A temperature of a 50 kg block increases by 15°C when 337,500 J of thermal energy are added to the block.

Physics

bekas [8.4K]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Heat = mass × specific heat × temperature change

q = m C ΔT

Given:

q = 337500 J

m = 50 kg

ΔT = 15°C

Substitute:

337500 J = (50 kg) C (15°C)

C = 450 J/kg/°C

Specific heat is usually recorded in J/g/°C or kJ/kg/°C.  Converting:

C = 0.45 J/g/°C = 0.45 kJ/kg/°C

A billiard ball moving at 6.00 m/s strikes a stationary ball of the same mass. after the collision, the first ball moves at 5.39
kodGreya [7K]
<span>To do this question, we need to know that momentum is conserved, meaning the overall velocity of the two balls has to be the same before and after the collision.  </span>

<span>After collision... </span>

<span>Ball 1: 4.33m/s *cos 30 = 3.75 m/s (x-component) </span>
<span>4.33m/s * sin 30 = 2.165 m/s ( y-component) </span>

<span>Ball 2 (struck ball): 5 m/s - 3.75m/s = 1.25 m/s (x-component)  </span>
<span>-2.165 m/s (y-component) note: it has to be in the opposite direction to conserve momentum </span>

<span>tan-1(2.165/1.25) = 60 degrees </span>
<span>Struck ball's velocity = sqrt(1.25^2 + 2.165^2) = 2.5 m/s at 60 degree with respect to the original line of motion.  </span>

<span>Hope you understand!</span>

Would a rougher or smoother object absorb thermal energy faster? Why? Give an example.
Nuetrik [128]
Smoother because it will increase energy and when the energy increases it’ll create heat also . Example: A car racing on a smooth road it’ll go faster than a Car speeding on a bumpy and rough road , Hope that helps .
