Answer: elastic potential energy
Explanation:
a) 0.321 ly
b) 0.321 light years is not far in astronomical terms. Alien life would need to transmit at tremendous power in order for their radio transmissions to be detectable. Their radio signal also needs to be stronger than background noise in order to be distinguishable. Therefore it is unlikely that radio transmissions from alien life will ever be detected.
Answer:
the heat absorbed by the block of copper is 74368.476J
Explanation:
Hello!
To solve this problem use the first law of thermodynamics that states that the heat applied to a system is the difference between the initial and final energy considering that the mass and the specific heat do not change so we can infer the following equation
Q=mCp(T2-T1)
Where
Q=heat
m=mass=2.3kg
Cp=0.092 kcal/(kg C)=384.93J/kgK
T2=Final temperatura= 90C
T1= initial temperature=6 C
solving
the heat absorbed by the block of copper is 74368.476J
