Answer:
c. is more than that of the fluid.
Explanation:
This problem is based on the conservation of energy and the concept of thermal equilibrium

m= mass
s= specific heat
\DeltaT=change in temperature
let s1= specific heat of solid and s2= specific heat of liquid
then
Heat lost by solid= 
Heat gained by fluid=
Now heat gained = heat lost
therefore,
1000 S_2=800 S_1
S_1=1.25 S_2
so the specific heat of solid is more than that of the fluid.
Answer:
x = 5.79 m
Explanation:
given,
mass of the car = 39000 Kg
spring constant = 5.7 x 10⁵ N/m
acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
height of the track = 25 m
length of spring compressed = ?
using conservation of energy
potential energy is converted into spring energy




x = 5.79 m
the spring is compressed to x = 5.79 m to stop the car.
Answer:
The moon has no atmosphere
Explanation:
The temperatures on the surface of the Moon vary much more than those on Earth because the moon has no atmosphere (third answer in the list), and therefore there are no molecules that could retain residual heat and make the change from day to night a softer transition.
b. 460.8 m/s
Explanation:
The relationship between the speed of the wave along the string, the length of the string and the frequency of the note is

where v is the speed of the wave, L is the length of the string and f is the frequency. Re-arranging the equation and substituting the data of the problem (L=0.90 m and f=256 Hz), we can find v:

c. 18,000 m
Explanation:
The relationship between speed of the wave, distance travelled and time taken is

where
v = 6,000 m/s is the speed of the wave
d = ? is the distance travelled
t = 3 s is the time taken
Re-arranging the formula and substituting the numbers into it, we find:
