4 0

Answer: Option B) 1038J

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of person (m) = 83kg

kinetic energy (KE) = ?

Speed of elevator (v) = 5m/s

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object. It is measured in joules, and depends on the mass (m) of the object and the speed (v) by which it moves

i.e K.E = 1/2mv²

KE = 1/2 x 83kg x (5m/s)²

KE = 0.5 x 83 x 25

KE = 1037.5J (Round the kinetic energy to the nearest whole number as 1038J)

Thus, the kinetic energy of the person is 1038 Joules

A 1-kg iron frying pan is placed on a stove. The pan increases from 20°C to 250°C. If the same amount of heat is added to a pan
sergejj [24]

Here mass of the iron pan is given as 1 kg

now let say its specific heat capacity is given as "s"

also its temperature rise is given from 20 degree C to 250 degree C

so heat required to change its temperature will be given as

Q = ms \Delta T

Q = 1*s*(250 - 20)

Q = 1*s*230

now if we give same amount of heat to another pan of greater specific heat

so let say the specific heat of another pan is s'

now the increase in temperature of another pan will be given as

Q = ms'\Delta T

1*s*230 = 1* s' * \Delta T

now we have

\Delta T = (\frac{s}{s'})*230

now as we know that s' is more than s so the ratio of s and s' will be less than 1

And hence here we can say that change in temperature of second pan will be less than 230 degree C which shows that final temperature of second pan will reach to lower temperature

So correct answer is

<u>A) The second pan would reach a lower temperature.</u>

If a neutral metal comb is held near an object with a negative charge, the Como become charged by
LenKa [72]
The local charging of the comb is due to induction. The negative object's charge pushes electrons in the comb away from the side close to the charged object causing that part to be positively charged. Note that the comb's net charge is still zero provided it doesn't touch the object. When you move the comb away its electrons will redistribute.

How long does it take (in minutes) for light to reach venus from the sun, a distance of 1.152 × 108 km?
7nadin3 [17]
Using the precise speed of light in a vacuum (299,792,458 \ \frac{m}{s}), and your given distance of 1.152 * 10^{8} km, we can convert and cancel units to find the answer. The distance in m, using \frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km}, is 1.152 * 10^{11} m. Next, for the speed of light, we convert from s to min, using \frac{1 \ min}{60 \ s}, so we divide the speed of light by 60. Finally, dividing the distance between the Sun and Venus by the speed of light in km per min, we find that it is 6.405 min.
