How much heat is needed to melt 16.5kg of silver that is initially at 20*c?

Physics

The Specific Heat Capacity of silver is 230 J/kgK, melting point is 961.8 C so the difference is 941.8K. Now we simply do q=230J/kgK*16.5kg*941.8K and that is 3 574 131 J

A truck loaded with sand accelerates along a highway. The driving force on the truck remains constant. What happens to the accel
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Acceleration will increase.

Explanation:

The relation between force, mass and acceleration according to the Newton's second law of motion is given as:

F = ma

We are given that the driving force on the truck remains constant, so F is constant here. We can rewrite the above equation as:

a=\frac{F}{m}

Since, F is constant, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass.

There is a hole at the bottom of the truck through which the sand is being lost at a constant rate. Since, the sand is being lost, the overall mass of the truck is being reduced.

Since, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass, the reduced mass will result in an increased acceleration.

So, the acceleration of the truck will increase.

If an electron is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 9.9 kV, what is its resulting speed
beks73 [17]

Answer:

v = 5.9 x 10⁷ m/s

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the electron in terms of potential difference is given as:

K.E = eV--------------- equation (1)

where,

e = charge on electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

V = Potential Difference = 9.9 KV = 9900 Volts

The kinetic energy in general is given as:

K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\\--------- equation (2)

where,

m = mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

v = speed of electron = ?

Therefore, comparing equation (1) and equation (2), we get:

\\\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = eV\\\\\frac{1}{2}(9.1\ x\ 10^{-31}\ kg)v^{2} = (1.6\ x\ 10^{-19}\ C)(9900\ volts)\\\\v = \sqrt{34.81\ x\ 10^{14}} \\

<u>v = 5.9 x 10⁷ m/s</u>

Why are strong forces able to hold atomic nuclei together?
Galina-37 [17]
The nucleons(protons and neutrons) are held together by means of this strong force. If this strong never existed, all the nucleus will blow themselves due to strong repulsive force between protons(neutron has no charge).
Thats it!
If I explain beyond, it will surely bounce off your head. Anyways, if you wanna know more bout it, ping me. (:
