The final temperature of the block is 27.5^{\circ} C

Explanation:

The amount of thermal energy Q supplied to a substance is related to the increase in temperature of the substance, \Delta T, according to the equation

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where:

m is the mass of the substance

C_s is the specific heat capacity of the substance

In this problem, we have:

m = 1.2 kg is the mass of the block

Q = 2,130 J is the amount of energy supplied to the block

C_s = 710 J/kg^{\circ}C is the specific heat capacity of the block

Solving for \Delta T, we find the increase in temperature:

\Delta T = \frac{Q}{m C_s}=\frac{2130}{(1.2)(710)}=2.5^{\circ}C

And since the initial temperature was

T_i = 25^{\circ}C

The final temperature will be

T_f = T_i + \Delta T = 25+2.5=27.5^{\circ} C

you give a shopping cart a job down the aisle the cart is full of groceries and has a mass of 18 kilograms the cart accelerates
mezya [45]

                 Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                 Force = (18 kg) x (3 m/s²) = 54 newtons

As long as you continue pushing the cart with 54 newtons of force,
it will accelerate at 3 m/s². 

At the instant you release it, or keep your hands on it but stop pushing,
it will stop accelerating.  It'll continue forward at the speed it had when
the 54 newtons of force stopped.

A student throws a rock upwards. The rock reaches a maximum height 2.4 seconds after it was released.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

23.52 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Time taken (t) to reach the maximum height = 2.4 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =..?

At the maximum height, the final velocity (v) is zero. Thus, we can obtain how fast the rock (i.e initial velocity)

was thrown as follow:

v = u – gt (since the rock is going against gravity)

0 = u – (9.8 × 2.4)

0 = u – 23.52

Collect like terms

0 + 23.52 = u

u = 23.52 m/s

Therefore, the rock was thrown at a velocity of 23.52 m/s.

At which of the following angles will the sunlight received at a location on Earth spread out over the largest area?
AleksandrR [38]

The angle at which the sunlight received at a location on Earth spread out over the largest area is 10°. Last option is correct.

<h3>What is sunlight?</h3>

The light coming from the Sun reaching the Earth's surface is called as Sunlight.

When the sun is overhead, the intensity is high because sun's rays are perpendicular to the earth's surface, so the energy spreads over a small area and the heat is too high in that region.

When, the angle is smaller, the sunlight will spread out over a larger area.

Thus, at 10° the sunlight received at a location on Earth spread out over the largest area. Last option is correct.
