The force decreases by a factor of 4, because 4 is 2-squared. (C).

And they don't have to be "large" masses. The force behaves exactly the same between the lint in your pocket and a speck of dust on a table in the house across the street.

how much energy is needed to heat 2kg of cooking oil with a specific heat capacity of 2000j/kg°c from 20°c to 120°c​
mash [69]

Answer:

400kj

Explanation:

h =mass × specific heat capacity × change in temperature

= 2×2000×[120-20]

=2×2000×100

=400000j

=400kj

Calculate the pressure of water at the bottom of 6m depth well.( g= 9.8m/s square<br>​
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

58.8NM-²

Explanation:

The pressure is the product of density,depth(height) and acceleration due to gravity

here the density of water is 1gm-³ it a constant so it not given

pressure= 6×9.8×1

pressure = 58.8NM-²

If the building absorbed so much heat that it turned into a liquid, then it would have undergone a phase change known as _____.
docker41 [41]
The building is in solid phase. Its molecules are arranged in a ver compact manner that is why it takes a definite shape and volume. When it is heated, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases. This is characterized by more frequent collisions. The rise in temperature causes the molecules to move rapidly by vibrating. When it reaches an amount of energy that causes the solid to change phase, this is called the latent energy. The molecules break their form and move farther away from each other until it resembles that of a liquid melting. This phase change is known as melting. The energy that must be reached to achieve melting is the latent heat of fusion.

In the figure a block slides along a track from one level to a higher level, by moving through an
Scrat [10]

Answer:

(B) 1.17 m.

Explanation:

At the highest point, the conservation of energy equation would becomes;

K.E (initial ) = K.E + P.E;

½ m(V)^2 = ½ m(V)^2 + mgh

(m*6^2)/2 = (m * 9.81 * 1.1) + (m*V^2)/2

36/2 = (9.81 * 1.1) + v^2/2

Solving the equation;

v=√14.44 m/s  

= 3.8 m/s

a = −0.6g

= -0.6*9.81

= −5.88 m/s^2

Using equation of motion,

V^2 = U^2 + 2aS

S = V^2/2a

= 14.44/12

= 1.19 m.
