ANTONII [103]3 years ago

Answer:

55,42 J

Explanation:

Since the height of the room is 3.45 m (distance between the floor and the ceiling) the difference between this value and the length of the rope 1.19 m; it will be equal to (3.45-1.19) =2.26 m. If we take as a reference point (Ep=0) the floor of the room, then the potential energy will be equal to Ep = M * g * h, replacing values in this equation (2.5 kg * 9.81 m/s2 * 2.26 m) will be 55,42 (N * m) or Jules.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

MRCORRECT has answered the question

Explanation:

According to second law of thermodynamic,heat flows from higher to lower temperature region. Heat is the transfer of energy from an object at higher temperature to an object at a lower temperature. so energy flows from warmer to colder objects

A weather balloon is inflated to a volume of 26.8 LL at a pressure of 744 mmHgmmHg and a temperature of 31.2 ∘C∘C. The balloon r
elena-s [515]

Answer:

43.96 L

Explanation:

We are given that

V_1=26.8 L

P_1=744mm Hg

T_1=31.2^{\circ} C=31.2+273=304.2K

P_2=385mmHg

T_2=-14.8^{\circ}=273-14.8=258.2K

We know that

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

V_2=\frac{P_1V_1T_2}{P_2T_1}

Substitute the values

V_2=\frac{744\times 26.8\times 258.2}{385\times 304.2}

V_2=43.96 L

Hence, the volume of balloon at -14.8 degree Celsius=43.96 L

1. Identify which of the following will not increase the current induced in a wire loop moving through a magnetic field. a. incr
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Rotating the loop until it is perpendicular to the field  

Explanation:

Current is induced in a conductor when there is a change in magnetic flux.

The strength of the induced current in a wire loop moving through a magnetic field can be increased or decreased by the following methods:

By increasing the strength of the magnetic field there will be increased in the induced current. If the strength of the magnetic field is decreased then there is a decrease in induced current.    

By increasing the speed of the wire there will be increased in the induced current. When the speed of the wire is decreased then there is a decrease in induced current.

By increasing the number of turns of the coil the strength of the induced current can be increased. when there is less number of turns in coils then there is a decrease in induced current.  

Rotating the loop until it is perpendicular to the field will not increase the current induced in a wire loop moving through a magnetic field.

Therefore, the option is (c) is correct.

The speed of sound in air is approximately 340 m/s. The speed of light in air is approximately 3 x 108 m/s. If 10 seconds elapse
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

3400 m

Explanation:

Both lightning and thunder happen at the same time but one is faster than the other. The distance traveled by a sound can be calculated from its speed such that;

 speed = distance/time, hence, distance = speed x time.

<em>For a thunder with 340 m/s speed and 10 seconds away from lightning, the distance between the thunder and the lightning can be calculated as</em>;

distance = 340 m/s x 10 s = 3400 m
