the pull of gravity on mars is 3.7m/s^2. if a astronaut on mars lifts a 10 kg rock 1 m off the ground, just to see whats under i
1 answer:
Gravitational potential energy can be calculated using the formula:
Where:
PEgrav = Gravitational potential energy
m= mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height
On Earth acceleration due to gravity is a constant 9.8 but since the scenario is on Mars, the pull of gravity is different. In this case, it is 3.7, so we will use that for g.
So put in what you know and solve for what you don't know.
m = 10kg
g = 3.7m/s^2
h = 1m
So we put that in and solve it.

Answer:
The solution(s) are in order with respect to the attachments
Joules ; 5. Adding the same amount of heat to two different objects will produce the same increase in temperature ; 2. Same speed in both ; 2. A
Explanation:
Diagram 1 ( Liquid Nitrogen ) : So as you can see, we want our units in Joules here, and can therefore multiply the mass of gaseous nitrogen and the latent heat of liquid nitrogen, to cancel the units kg, and receive our solution - in terms of Joules. Let's do it.
q ( energy removed ) = mass of nitrogen latent heat of liquid nitrogen,
q = 1.3 kg 2.01
10⁵ J / kg =
=
=
=
Joules =
kiloJoules = 2.613
10⁵Joules is the energy that must be removed
Diagram 2 : The same amount of heat does not necessarily mean the same increase in temperature for two different objects. The increase in temperature depends on the specific heat capacity of the substance. Therefore your solution is 5 ) Adding the same amount of heat to two different objects will produce the same increase in temperature.
Diagram 3 : The temperatures in both glasses are the same, and hence the molecules have the same average speed. Therefore your solution is 2 ) Same speed in both.
Diagram 4 : Glass A has more water molecules, and hence has more thermal energy. Your solution is 2 ) A.
