Though the hot cocoa would have a higher temperature, the lake would have more thermal energy because it has more molecules with a greater total internal energy.
Velocity is the answer..
hope that helps
M = 30 g = 0.03 kg, the mass of the bullet
v = 500 m/s, the velocity of the bullet
By definition, the KE (kinetic energy) of the bullet is
KE = (1/2)*m*v²
= 0.5*(0.03 kg)*(500 m/s)² = 3750 J
Because the bullet comes to rest, the change in mechanical energy is 3750 J.
The work done by the wall to stop the bullet in 12 cm is
W = (1/2)*(F N)*(0.12 m) = 0.06F J
If energy losses in the form of heat or sound waves are ignored, then
W = KE.
That is,
0.06F = 3750
F = 62500 N = 62.5 kN
Answer:
(a) 3750 J
(b) 62.5 kN
The observable universe consists of galaxies and other matter that can, principally, be seen from Earth because the light signals have had time to reach us. Not everything in the sky is the way it is when we see it, because of the distance the light travels to reach us.
Hope this helps :)
