How much heat is released when 432 g of water cools down from 71'c to 18'c?
maria [59]
The heat released by the water when it cools down by a temperature difference \Delta T is
Q=mC_s \Delta T
where
m=432 g is the mass of the water
C_s = 4.18 J/g^{\circ}C is the specific heat capacity of water
\Delta T =71^{\circ}C-18^{\circ}C=53^{\circ} is the decrease of temperature of the water

Plugging the numbers into the equation, we find
Q=(432 g)(4.18 J/g^{\circ}C)(53^{\circ}C)=9.57 \cdot 10^4 J
and this is the amount of heat released by the water.

An object is allowed to fall freely near the surface of a planet. The object has an acceleration due to gravity of 24 m/s2. How
Alborosie

Answer:

12 m

Explanation:

The object is in uniformly accelerated motion, so the distance covered can be found using the following suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the distance

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

For this problem,

g=24 m/s^2

and

u = 0, since we are considering the first second of motion

So, substituting t = 1 s, we find

s=0+\frac{1}{2}(24)(1)^2=12 m

A lawn roller in the form of a thin-walled, hollow cylinder with mass M is pulled horizontally with a constant horizontal force
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

a_{cm}=\frac{F}{2M}\\\\F_{fr}=\frac{F}{2}

Explanation:

Given the mass as M, the rotational inertia of the mower is;

I_{cm}=MR^2

-The roller doesn't slip while rolling;

v_{cm}=wR, a_{cm}=\alpha R

\sum F_x=Ma_x, -F+F_{fr}=-Ma_{cm}\\\\a_{cm}=\frac{F-Fr}{M}    \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ eqtn1\\\\\sum \tau_{cm}=I_{cm}\alpha, F_{fr}(R)}=(MR^2)(\frac{a_{cm}}{R}), ->F_{fr}=Ma_c_m\ \ \  \ \ \ \ eqtn2\\\\a_{cm}=\frac{F-Ma_{cm}}{M}, ->F=2Ma_{cm}\\\\a_{cm}=\frac{F}{2M}\\\\\\\therefore F_{fr}=M(\frac{F}{2M})\\\\F_{fr}=\frac{F}{2}

Block on inclined plane experience a force due to gravity of 300N straight down. If the slope is inclined at 67.8°to the horizon
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The component of the force due to gravity perpendicular and parallel to the slope is  113.4 N and 277.8 N respectively.

Explanation:

Force is any cause capable of modifying the state of motion or rest of a body or of producing a deformation in it. Any force can be decomposed into two vectors, so that the sum of both vectors matches the vector before decomposing. The decomposition of a force into its components can be done in any direction.

Taking into account the simple trigonometric relations, such as sine, cosine and tangent, the value of their components and the value of the angle of application, then the parallel and perpendicular components will be:

  • Fparallel = F*sinα =300 N*sin 67.8° =300 N*0.926⇒ Fparallel =277.8 N
  • Fperpendicular = F*cosα =  300 N*cos 67.8° = 300 N*0.378 ⇒ Fperpendicular= 113.4 N

<u><em>The component of the force due to gravity perpendicular and parallel to the slope is  113.4 N and 277.8 N respectively.</em></u>
