1. The correct answer among the choices provided is the third option. Measuring the temperature increase of water from doing work by stirring it is an experiment generally regarded as being first carried out by James Joule.
2.  Joule's experiment directly shows that heat is a form of energy. He wanted to make a different way of measuring energy.

Answer 1: The correct answer is: 'measuring the temperature increase of water from doing work stirring it'.

Answer 2: The correct answer is :'Heat is a form of energy'.

Explanation:

In his experiment he took three fluids : water, oil, mercury in an insulating container with stirrer agitated in the fluid.

He measured the amount of work done by the rotating stirrer in the fluid and the temperature rise in the fluid due to the rotation of the stirrer was also observed.

From his observation he concluded that the heat possessed by the fluid and work done on the fluid is directly linked to each other. Which he put down is simple words "heat is a form of energy"

A bald eagle is flying to the left with a speed of 34 meters
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

the speed after 3 seconds is 10 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of the speed is shown below:

As we know that

V = U  + at

Here,

U = 34 m/s

a =  - 8 m/s²

t = 3 Sec

V = velocity after 3 sec

V  = 34 + (-8)3

 = 34 - 24

 V = 10 m/s

Hence, the speed after 3 seconds is 10 m/s

What is the acceleration of a 600,000 kg freight train, if each of itsthree engines can provide 100,000 n of force?
sergey [27]

The acceleration of a 600,000 kg freight train, if each of its three engines can provide 100,000N of force is 0.167m/s².

<h3>How to calculate acceleration?</h3>

The acceleration of a freight train can be calculated using the following formula:

Force = mass × acceleration

According to this question, a 600,000kg freight train can produce 100,000N of force. The acceleration is as follows:

100,000 = 600,000 × a

100,000 = 600,000a

a = 0.167m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of a 600,000 kg freight train, if each of its three engines can provide 100,000N of force is 0.167m/s².
