The heat energy transferred by the iron nail is 4680 J

Explanation:

The thermal energy transferred by a substance to another substance is given by the equation

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

\Delta T is its change in temperature

For the iron nail in this problem, we have:

m = 16 g

C=0.450 J/g^{\circ}C

\Delta T = -650^{\circ}C

So, the amount of heat energy given off by the nail is

Q=(16)(0.450)(-650)=-4680 J

where the negative sign indicates that the heat is given off.

The speed at which a light aircraft can take off is 120 km/h. (A) What is the minimum constant acceleration required for the pla
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

A) a = 2.31[m/s^2]; B) t = 14.4 [s]

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the kinematic equations, but firts we must identify the data:

Vf= final velocity = take off velocity = 120[km/h]

Vi= initial velocity = 0, because the plane starts to move from the rest.

dx= distance to run = 240 [m]

v_{f} ^{2} =v_{i} ^{2}+2*g*dx\\where:\\v_{f}=120[\frac{km}{h} ]*\frac{1hr}{3600sg} * \frac{1000m}{1km} =33.33[m/s]\\\\Replacing\\33.33^{2}=0+2*a*(240)\\ a=\frac{11108.88}{2*240}\\  a=2.31[m/s^2]\\

To find the time we must use another kinematic equation.

v_{f} =v_{i} +a*t\\replacing:\\33.33=0+(2.31*t)\\t=\frac{33.33}{2.31}\\ t=14.4[s]

A car accelerates at a rate of 13m/s^2[S]. If the car's initial velocity is 120km/h[N]. What will its final velocity be in m/s,
Delvig [45]

Answer:

the final velocity of the car is 59.33 m/s [N]

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration of the car, a = 13 m/s²

initial velocity of the car, u = 120 km/h = 33.33 m/s

duration of the car motion, t = 2 s

The final velocity of the car in the same direction is calculated as follows;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity of the car

v = 33.33 + (13 x 2)

v = 59.33 m/s [N]

Therefore, the final velocity of the car is 59.33 m/s [N]

A point charge q1 is held stationary at the origin. A second charge q2 is placed at point a, and the electric potential energy o
likoan [24]

Answer:

U_{b}=+7.3*10^{-8}J

Explanation:

Given data

Electric potential at point a is Ua=5.4×10⁻⁸J

q₂ moves to point b where a negative work done on it  W_{a-b}=-1.9*10^{-8}J

Required

Electric potential energy Ub

Solution

When a particle moves from a point where the potential is Ua to a point where it is Ub the change in potential energy is equal to work done where the force exerted on the charge is conservative and work done is given by:

W_{a-b}=U_{a}-U_{b}\\U_{b}=U_{a}-W_{a-b}

Now  substitute the given values

So

U_{b}=5.4*10^{-8}J-(-1.9*10^{-8}J)\\U_{b}=+7.3*10^{-8}J

Một đoạn mạch gồm R1=8 ôm;R2=12 ôm.biết R1 nối tiếp với đoạn mạch gồm R2 song song với R3; R3=1/2 R2 cường độ dòng điện chạy qua
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

a.

b. R3= 1/2R2=6 ôm

R12= R1+R2=20 ôm

Rtđ=R12.R3/R12+R3= 4,62 ôm

c. U= I.Rtđ = 2.4,62=9,23 V

I1=I2= 9,23/20= 0,4615 A

I3= 2-0,4615=1,5385 A
