Answer:

Explanation:

Given

1 calorie is equals to 4.186 J

and 1 BTU equals to 1054 J

using unitary method

1\ calorie \equiv 4.186 J

1\ calorie \equiv 4.186 \times 1 J

and 1\ J \equiv \frac{1}{1054} BTU

thus   1\ calorie \equiv 4.186 \times \frac{1}{1054} BTU

1\ calorie\ \equiv 0.00397 BTU

1\ calorie\ \equiv 397\time 10^{-5} BTU  

or BTU=251.88\approx 252 cal

Answer:

option (c)

Explanation:

According to the question

1 BTU = 1054 J

4.186 J = 1 cal

So, 1 J = 1/4.186 cal

So, 1054 J = 1054 / 4.186 cal

                 = 251.8 cal

By rounding off, it is 252 cal

So, 1 BTU = 252 cal

Andrej [43]

Answer:

7 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem you must use the conservation of energy.

K1 +U1=K2+U2

That math speak for, initial kinetic energy plus initial potential energy equals final kinetic energy plus final potential energy.

The initial PE (potential energy) is 0 because it hasn't been raised in the air yet. The final KE (kinetic energy) is 0 because it isn't moving. This gives the following:

KE1= \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}}

PE2=mgh

K1=U2

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

Solve for v

v=\sqrt{2gh}

Input known values and you get 7 m/s.

Define neuron and nerve<br>cell​
san4es73 [151]

Answer: Hi!

A neuron is a basic working unit of the brain. Neurons are special cells designed to transfer information to other nerve, muscle, or gland cells. They are pretty cool - looking too! (A slightly irregular circular shape with branches reaching out from all sides.) A neuron is a nerve cell. Nerve cells are the way of communication in the nervous system.

Hope this helps!
