To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Kinetic Energy and the Energy Produced by the heat loss. In mathematical terms kinetic energy can be described as:

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Where,

m = Mass

v = Velocity

Replacing we have that the Total Kinetic Energy is

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

KE = \frac{1}{2} (5*10^{-3})(300)^2

KE =  225J

On the other hand the required Energy to heat up t melting point is

Q_1 = mC_p \Delta T

Q_2 = L_f m

Where,

m = Mass

C_p =Specific Heat

\Delta T =Change at temperature

L_f = Latent heat of fussion

Heat required to heat up to melting point,

Q = Q_1+Q_2

Q = mC_p \Delta T+L_f m

Q = 5*0.128*(327-20) + 5*24.7

Q = 310J

The energy required to melt is larger than the kinetic energy. Therefore the heat of fusion of lead would be 327 ° C: The melting point of lead.

ANSWER ASAP Which factor determines the amount of gas that can dissolve in ocean water? (A) the motion of the air above the ocea
Andru [333]

Answer:

The amount of each gas that can dissolve in the ocean depends on the solubility and saturation of the gas in water. Solubility refers to the amount of a dissolved gas that the water can hold under a particular set of conditions, which are usually defined as 0o C and 1 atmosphere of pressure.

A vehicle starts to move from the rest gets an acceleration of 5 m/s2 within 2
likoan [24]

Answer:

When an object moves in a straight line with a constant acceleration, you can calculate its acceleration if you know how much its velocity changes and how long this takes.

The formula is,

Acceleration = change in velocity / time taken

The equation for acceleration can also be represented as:

a = (v-u) \ t

The change in velocity v – u = 5 – 0 = 5 m/s.

The acceleration = change in velocity ÷ time = 5 m/s ÷ 2 s = 2.5 m/s^2

Which of these is a likely impact of stronger than normal trade winds on the eastern Pacific Ocean?
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Jet stream would be displaced southwards causing heavy rain and flooding.

Explanation:

The other options of the question were A) Jet stream would be displaced northwards causing drought. B) Jet stream would be displaced southwards causing drought. D) Jet stream would be displaced northwards causing heavy rain and flooding,

The statement that is a likely impact of stronger than normal trade winds in the Pacific Northwest to the United States is "Jet stream would be displaced southwards causing heavy rain and flooding."

We are talking about climate or weather terminology. In this case, we are referring to the "El Niño" (the Children) effect. Its presence affects the weather in North America. This phenomenon combines with the "La Niña) effect and it presents itself every two to seven years, ad they last from 8 to 12 months, affecting the weather conditions of the region.
