Answer: 2859.78 k
Explanation: By using the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the meteor equals the heat energy.
Kinetic energy = 1/2mv^2
Heat energy = mcΔθ
Where m = mass of meteor , v = velocity of meteor = 1623 m/s
c = specific heat capacity of meteor (iron) = 460.548 j/kg/k
Δθ = change in temperature of meteor = ?
From law ofconservation of energy, we have that
1/2mv^2 = mcΔθ
By cancelling "m" on both sides, we have that
v^2/2 = cΔθ
v^2 = 2cΔθ
(1623)^2 = 2× 460.548 × Δθ
2634129 = 921.096 × Δθ
Δθ = 2634129 / 921.096
Δθ = 2859.78 k
Answer:
divide
Explanation:
make sure u do good at it
Answer:
Air at higher altitude is under less pressure than air at lower altitude because there is less weight of air above it, so it expands (and cools), while air at lower altitude is under more pressure so it contracts (and heats up).
