Gravity is 9.8m/s^2
For every second the object travels 9.8m
When the object is at two seconds the distance travelled is gravity x time --> 9.8 x 2 = 19.6m/s^2
Finding the increase is just subtracting
19.6-9.8=9.8m/s^2

A freight train consists of two 8.00 \times 10^5~\text{kg}8.00×10 ​5 ​​ kg engines and 45 cars with average masses of 5.50 \time
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

F₁ = 4.29 x 10⁵ N

Explanation:

The total force required to move the freight train with the given acceleration is given by the following formula:

F = ma + f

where,

F = Total Force Required from both engines = ?

m = equivalent mass of system = 2(8 x 10⁵ kg) + 5.5 x 10⁵ kg = 21.5 x 10⁵ kg

a = required acceleration = 5 x 10⁻² m/s²

f = force of friction = 7.5 x 10⁵ N

Therefore,

F = (21.5 x 10⁵ kg)(0.05 m/s²) + 7.5 x 10⁵ N

F = 8.575 x 10⁵ N

Now, for identical forces in each engine can be given as:

Force exerted by each engine = F₁ = F/2

F₁ = 8.575 x 10⁵ N/2

<u>F₁ = 4.29 x 10⁵ N</u>

Water at 0°C loses 1140 calories worth of heat. How much of the water freezes? [Lf= 79.7 cal/g] a) 16.8 g b) 81.5 g c) 0.002 g d
Simora [160]

Answer:

option d)

Explanation:

The amount of heat required to convert the 1 g of ice at 0 degree C to 1 g water at 0 degree C is called latent heta of fusion.

H = m Lf

where,, h is the heat required, m is the mass and Lf is the latent heat of fusion

1140 = m x 79.7

m = 14.3 g

Answer:

K.E.=\dfrac{3}{2}KT

Explanation:

Given that

Number of particle =N

Equilibrium temperature= T

Side of cube = L

Gravitational acceleration =g

The kinetic energy of an atom  given as

K.E.=\dfrac{3}{2}KT

Where

Equilibrium temperature= T

Boltzmann constant =K
