How much energy is needed to heat and melt 3.0 kg of copper initially at 83°C?

Physics

As we know that in order to melt the copper we need to take the temperature of copper to its melting point

So here heat required to raise the temperature of copper is given as

Q = ms\Delta T

We know that

melting temperature of copper = 1085 degree C

Specific heat capacity of copper = 385 J/kg C

now we have

Q = 3(385)(1085 - 83)

Q = 1157310 J

Q = 1157.3 kJ

now in order to melt the copper we know the heat required is

Q = mL

here we know that

L = 205 kJ/kg

now from above formula

Q = 3(205) kJ

Q = 615 kJ

now total heat required will be

Q = 1157.3 kJ + 615 kJ

Q = 1772.3 kJ

As we know that

1 Cal = 4.18 kJ

now we have

Q = \frac{1772.3}{4.18} = 430 KCal

Which projectiles will be visibly affected by air resistance when they fall?
NemiM [27]
Any object that is launched as a projectile will lose speed and, as a result, altitude, as it travels through the air. The rate at which the object loses speed and altitude depends on the amount of force that way applied to it when it was launched. It is also dependent on the size and shape of the item. This is why something like, say, a football is much faster to fall to the ground than a bullet.

James and Juan were at the highest point in the football stadium, dropping water balloons on people below. Many of the balloons
Fofino [41]
When you add more water to the balloon, it makes it heavier. Therefore it would weigh the balloon down ( increasing mass) and increasing the energy to plummet down. So the answer is B.
