The block is made of A) Tin, as its specific heat capacity is 0.225 J/(g^{\circ}C)

Explanation:

When an amount of energy Q is supplied to a sample of material of mass m, the temperature of the material increases by \Delta T, according to the following equation :

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where  C_s is the specific heat capacity of the material.

In this problem, we have:

m = 2 kg = 2000 g is the mass of the unknown material

Q = 450 J is the amount of energy supplied to the block

\Delta T = 1^{\circ}C is the change in temperature of the material

Solving the equation for C_s, we can find the specific heat capacity of the unknown sample:

C_s = \frac{Q}{m \Delta T}=\frac{450}{(2000)(1)}=0.225 J/(g^{\circ}C)

And by comparing with tabular values, we can find that this value is approximately the specific heat capacity of tin.

raketka [301]

Answer:

6.8 m/s2

Explanation:

Let g = 9.8 m/s2. The total weight of both the rope and the mouse-robot is

W = Mg + mg = 1*9.8 + 2*9.8 = 29.4 N

For the rope to fails, the robot must act a force on the rope with an additional magnitude of 43 - 29.4 = 13.6 N. This force is generated by the robot itself when it's pulling itself up at an acceleration of

a = F/m = 13.6 / 2 = 6.8 m/s2

So the minimum magnitude of the acceleration would be 6.8 m/s2 for the rope to fail

Answer:

because our some of the energy goes from our eyes

explanation;

There are several reasons why it's important to close our eyes while we sleep. Closed eyelids block light, which stimulates the brain to wakefulness. Closing our eyes also protects and lubricates the eyes while we sleep
