A neutron at rest decays (breaks apart) into a proton and an electron. Energy is released in the decay, in the form of kinetic e

nergy of the proton and electron. The mass of a proton is 1836 times the mass of an electron. What fraction of the total energy released goes into the kinetic energy of the proton?

A sample of copper with a mass of 1.80 kg, initially at a temperature of 150.0°C, is in a well-insulated container. Water at a t
user100 [1]

Answer:

the mass of water is 0.3 Kg

Explanation:

since the container is well-insulated, the heat released by the copper is absorbed by the water , therefore:

Q water + Q copper = Q surroundings =0 (insulated)

Q water = - Q copper

since Q = m * c * ( T eq - Ti ) , where m = mass, c = specific heat, T eq = equilibrium temperature and Ti = initial temperature

and denoting w as water and co as copper :

m w * c w * (T eq - Tiw) = - m co * c co * (T eq - Ti co) =  m co * c co * (T co - Ti eq)

m w = m co * c co * (T co - Ti eq) / [ c w * (T eq - Tiw) ]

We take the specific heat of water as c= 1 cal/g °C = 4.186 J/g °C . Also the specific heat of copper can be found in tables → at 25°C c co = 0.385 J/g°C

if we assume that both specific heats do not change during the process (or the change is insignificant)

m w = m co * c co * (T eq - Ti co) / [ c w * (T eq - Tiw) ]

m w= 1.80 kg *  0.385 J/g°C ( 150°C - 70°C) /( 4.186 J/g°C ( 70°C- 27°C))

m w= 0.3 kg

A forklift raises a crate weighing 8.35 × 102 newtons to a height of 6.0 meters. What amount of work does the forklift do?
Vinil7 [7]
Answer:

<span>5010J</span>

Explanation:

Work is force times distance, or

<span>W=F⋅d</span>.

Substitute in values from the question to get

<span>W=8.35⋅<span>102</span>N⋅6m=50.1⋅<span>102</span>Nm=5010<span>J</span></span>

A brass washer has an outside diameter of 4.50 cm with a hole of diameter 1.25 cm and is 1.50 mm thick. The density of brass is
-Dominant- [34]
We will find the mass from 
mass = density x volume 
We are told the density and must find the volume from the dimensions given 
the volume of the washer will be the area x thickness (remembering to convert all measurements to meters) 
if the washer had no hole, its area would be pi (0.0225m)^2 (remember to convert to meters and to use radius) 
the area of the hole is pi(0.00625m)^2 
so the area of the washer is pi[(0.0225m)^2 - (0.00625m)^2] = 1.5x10^-3 m 
the volume of the washer is 1.5x10^-3 m x 1.5x10^-3 m = 2.25x10^-6 m^3 (the thickness of the washer is 1.5 mm = 1.5x10^-3m) 
thus, the mass of the washer = 8598kg/m^3 x 2.25x10^-6m^3 = 0.0189kg = 18.9 grams

Flapping flight is very energy intensive. A wind tunnel test
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The metabolic power for starting flight=134.8W/kg

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of starling, m=89 g=89/1000=0.089 kg

1 kg=1000 g

Power, P=12 W

Speed, v=11 m/s

We have to find the metabolic power for starting flight.

We know that

Metabolic power for starting flight=\frac{P}{m}

Using the formula

Metabolic power for starting flight=\frac{12}{0.089}

Metabolic power for starting flight=134.8W/kg

Hence, the metabolic power for starting flight=134.8W/kg
