NikAS [45]

We are given the mass of an <span>aluminum sculpture which is 145 kg and a horizontal force equal to 668 Newtons. The coefficient of friction can be determined by dividing the horizontal force by the weight of the object. In this case, 668 N / 145 * 9.8 equal to coeff of friction of 0.47</span>

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The magnitude of minimum potential difference is 1800 V

Explanation:

Given:

Electric field $E = 3 \times 10^{6} \frac{V}{m}$

Gap between electrodes $d = 0.060 \times 10^{-2}$ m

For finding the minimum potential difference,

$\Delta V = E \times d$

$\Delta V = 3 \times 10^{6} \times 0.060 \times 10^{-2}$

$\Delta V = 1800$ V

Therefore, the magnitude of minimum potential difference is 1800 V

It is difficult to extinguish a fire on a crude oil tanker, because each liter of crude oil releases 2.80 × 10 7 J of energy whe

boyakko [2]

Answer:

10.4L of water is expended when 1L of crude oil is burned.

Explanation:

This problem requires us to calculate the volume of water that must be expended to absorb the amount of energy released from the burning of 1.00L of crude oil.

In going from water at 18.5°C to steam at 285°C, the water undergoes 3 stages:

Absorption of heat from 18.5°C to 100°C >> phase change to vapour at 100°C >> heating from 100°C to steam at 285°C

Given Cw = 4186 J/kg°C and Cs = 2020 J/kg°C. The latent heat of of vaporization of water Lv = 2.256 ×10⁶ J/kg

The total heat absorbed in the process per kilogram

H = Cw × (100 – 18.5) + Lv + Cs × (285 – 100)

H = 4186 × 81.5 + 2. 256 ×10⁶ + 2020× 185

= 2.696 ×10⁶ J/kg

The amount of heat in J/L of water needed can be calculated as follows:

Density of water = 1000kg/m³ =

1000 kg/m³ × 1m³/1000L = 1kg/L (Basically conversion of density in kg/m³ to kg/L)

Let the volume of water needed be V litres.

Then the mass of water that must be expended = Density × Volume

= 1kg/L × V L = Vkg

The heat that would be absorbed by the water when 1L of crude oil is burned is V×H

= 2.696×10⁶ × V

This is also equal to 2.80×10⁷ J of energy (given).

So,

2.696×10⁶V = 2.8×10⁷

V = (2.80×10⁷)/(2.696×10⁶) = 10.4L of water.

How much work is required to lift a 2 kg mass to a height of 10 meters?

scoray [572]

Use the equation potential energy =m*g*h
m-mass,
g-gravitational acceleration,
h-height
Potential energy = 2*10*10
=200
$kg {m}^{2} {s}^{ - 2}$
This is the unit of the energy
