Answer:

Explanation:

Total heat = Work done = Force × distance

distance = 0.075 × 12 = 0.9 m

W = 45 × 0.9 = 40.5 joules

Specific heat of the human hand = 3.5 kj/kg = 3.5 j/g

Q = MCΔT

ΔT = (Q) ÷ (MC)

ΔT = 40.5 ÷ (3.5 × 1) = 11.57°C

A generator contains a coil that spins to produce an electric current. How is energy transformed by using a generator
LiRa [457]

<u>Answer </u>

Mechanical energy ⇒ Electric energy

<u>Explanation </u>

A generator is used to produce electric energy. When he coils are made to rotate/spin, is makes the mechanical part. This coils rotates inside a magnetic fields inducing current in the coils. When current starts flowing in the coils, it forms the electrical part.

So, on the generator the energy changes are from mechanical to electrical energy.

Find the density of an object that has a mass of 5 kg and a volume of 50 cm3
serg [7]
Density = mass/volume. 5000/50= 100 grams per cubic centimeter. No substance on Earth has anywhere near that density. Tops is about 20 for osmium and gold.

One of your classmates, in a fit of unrestrained ego, jumps onto a lab table:
Anettt [7]

The equilibrium condition allows finding the results for the forces of the system are

      a) The free body diagram is in the attachment

      b) The normal force is N = 737 N

      c) The mass of the table is  10.2 kg

Newton's second law indicates that the net force is proportional to the product of the mass and the acceleration of the bodies, in the special case that the acceleration is zero, it is called the equilibrium condition

          ∑ F = 0

Where the bold letters indicate vectors, F is the external forces

a) A free body diagram is a scheme of the forces without the details of the bodies, in the attachmentt we see a free body diagram of the system.

b) The reaction force of the ground is applied in each of the legs of the table, in general this force has the same magnitude in each leg, therefore in Newton's second law we can place it as a single force

             N = N₁ + N₂ + N₃ + N₄₄

Let's apply the equilibrium condition

                N -  W_m -w_{table} = 0

                N =  W_m +w_{table}

                N = M_m g + w_{table}  

They indicate the pose of the boy is 65 kg, for the weight of the table of a laboratory table is approximately 100 N

                N = 65 9.8 + 100

                N = 737 N

c) To calculate the mass of the table we use the relation

                W = m_{table} g

                m_{table} = \frac{w_{table}}{g}

                m_{tabble}= \frac{100}{9.8}  

               m_{table}e = 10.2 kg

In conclusion using the equilibrium condition we can find the results for the forces are

      a) The free body diagram is in the attachment

      b) The normal force is N = 737 N

      c) The mass of the table is  10.2 kg

Elaborate on the reason(s) that matter is said to move even as in a solid state.
Mariulka [41]

<u>Answer:</u>

The matter does not move in solid state but vibrates.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The atoms inside the matter cannot move or shift their positions without any external force but makes some small vibration movements. Generally in solids, the particles are bound by the attractive forces acting in between the atoms inside the matter.

The small vibrations that are happening inside the matter are because of the external factors like temperature. The increase in temperature raises the kinetic energy of the atoms inside and makes them move faster and this results in the vibration of the matter.
