A copper sphere was moving at 25 m/s when it hit another object. This caused all of the KE to be converted into thermal energy f

or the copper sphere. If the specific heat capacity of copper is 387 J/(kg ⋅ C°), what was the increase in temperature?
0.23 C°
0.81 C°
1.3 C°
2.1 C°

Explanation:

Mrs. Lynn's art class is making pencil holders out of soup cans

These soup cans are definitely in cylindrical forms.

Each student is first covering a can with felt.

A felt is a type of material that is used for covering other objects. Here a felt is used to cover soup cans.

So if the diameter of the bottom of the can is 8 cm (i.e d = 8cm)

What will the circumference of the piece of felt need to be in order to cover the bottom of the can?

The felt will also take the circumference of a cylinder; and which is given by the expression

C = 2 πr

since diameter (d) = 8 cm

radius (r) = $\frac{d}{2}$

r = $\frac{8}{2}$

r = 4 cm

C = 2 × π × 4 cm

C = 2 × 3.142 × 4 cm

C = 25.13 cm

∴ the circumference of the piece of felt need to be 25.13 cm in order to cover the bottom of the can.

How do you think the amount of a material affects its tendency to sink or float?

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Things float when they are positively buoyant, or less dense than the fluid in which they are sitting. This does not mean that an object has to be lighter than the fluid, as in the case of a boat; objects just need to have a greater ratio of empty space to mass than the fluid.

A 0.1 kg toy contains a compressed spring. when the spring is released the toy fly 0.45 m upwards from ground level before falli

trapecia [35]

The speed of the toy when it hits the ground is 2.97 m/s.

The given parameters;

mass of the toy, m = 0.1 kg

the maximum height reached by the, h = 0.45 m

The speed of the toy before it hits the ground will be maximum. Apply the principle of conservation of mechanical energy to determine the maximum speed of the toy.

P.E = K.E

$mgh_{max} = \frac{1}{2} mv_{max}^2\\\\gh_{max} = \frac{1}{2} v_{max}^2\\\\v_{max}^2= 2gh_{max}\\\\v_{max} = \sqrt{2gh_{max}}$

Substitute the given values and solve the speed;

$v_{max} = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 0.45} \\\\v_{max} = 2.97 \ m/s$

Thus, the speed of the toy when it hits the ground is 2.97 m/s.

What does a black asphalt road become hotter than a white cement sidewalk in the same amount of sunlight?

victus00 [196]

The black means that it is a great emitter/absorber of the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic radiation is reflected of the white and absorbed nurture black meaning that the temperature of the black tarmac increases to that greater the the white

A sample of oxygen gas at 25.0Â°c has its pressure tripled while its volume is halved. What is the final temperature of the gas?

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

447 K

Explanation:

25 C = 25 + 273 = 298 K

Assuming ideal gas, we can apply the ideal gas law

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

$T_2 = T_1\frac{P_2}{P_1}\frac{V_2}{V_1}$

Since pressure is tripled, then $P_2 / P_1 = 3$ . Volume is halved, then $V_2 / V_1 = 0.5$

$T_2 = 298*3*0.5 = 447 K$
