Answer:

b. 1 770 kWh

Explanation:

The heat needed to change the temperature of a certain amount of a substance is given by:

Q=mC\Delta T

Here m is the mass of the susbtance, C is the specific heat of the substance and \Delta T is the temperature change

Q=(40000*3.8kg)(4186\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^\circ C})(10^\circ C)\\Q=6.36*10^9J

Recall that one watt hour is equivalent to 1 watt (1 W) of power sustained for 1 hour. One watt is equal to 1 J/s. So, one watt hour is equal to 3600 J and one kilowatt hour is equal to 3600*10^3 J

Q=6.36*10^9J*\frac{1kW\cdot h}{3600*10^3J}\\Q=1766.66kW\cdot h

A straight wire 20 cm long, carrying a current of 4 A, is in a uniform magnetic field of 0.6 T. What is the force on the wire wh
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Magnetic force, F = 0.24 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Current flowing in the wire, I = 4 A

Length of the wire, L = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Magnetic field, B = 0.6 T

Angle between force and the magnetic field, θ = 30°. The magnetic force is given by :

F=ILB\ sin\theta

F=4\ A\times 0.2\ m\times 0.6\ T\ sin(30)

F = 0.24 N

So, the force on the wire at an angle of 30° with respect to the field is 0.24 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A go-cart is traveling at a rate of 25 m/sec for 20 seconds. How far will the go cart travel?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Distance travel by go-cart = 500 meter

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of go cart = 25 m/s

Time travel = 20 seconds

Find:

Distance travel by go-cart

Computation:

Distance = Speed x time

Distance travel by go-cart = Speed of go cart x Time travel

Distance travel by go-cart = 25 x 20

Distance travel by go-cart = 500 meter

A 30.0 kg dolphin decelerates from 12.0 to 7.00 m/s in 2.60 s to join another dolphin in play. What average force (in N) was exe
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.

Explanation:

We have force is the product of mass and acceleration.

That is    

                 Force = Mass x Acceleration

                         F = ma

Mass of dolphin, m = 30 kg

We have equation of motion, v = u + at

Final velocity, v = 7 m/s

Initial velocity, u = 12 m/s

Time, t = 2.60 s

Substituting

                   7 = 12 + a x 2.6

                    a = -1.92 m/s²

Force,   F = 30 x -1.92 = -57.69 N

So the force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.
