Three different units of energy is

1. Joule: is is SI unit of measuring thermal energy or heat

2. Calorie: this system of energy is used when we take CGS system of mass and specific heat capacity

3. BTU: this system is known as british thermal unit which is used in measuring engineering calculations

A typical 12-V car battery can deliver about 750,000 C of charge before dying. This is not a lot of charge. As a comparison, cal
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

3.982 kg

Explanation:

The latent heat of vaporization = 540 cal/g

= 5.4 ×10⁵ cal/kg

L = 5.4 ×10⁵ × 4.19

  = 2.26 × 10⁶ J/kg

Q = 12 × 750,000

= 9, 000, 000

= 9 × 10⁶ J

the maximum number of kg of water (at 100 degrees Celsius) that could be boiled into steam (at 100 degrees Celsius) is:

= \frac{ 9*10^6}{2.26*10^6 }

= 3.982 kg

A roller coaster car of mass m = 300 kg is released from rest at the top of a 60 m high hill (position A), and rolls with a negl
Triss [41]

Answer:

The principle of conservation of energy and angular momentum

Explanation:

At point A, the car experienced maximum of potential energy

As it moves down the hill, the potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases.

The maximum kinetic energy of the car is needed for the attainment of enough centripetal force to help the car move through the loop without falling .

What is the period of a soundwave whose wavelength is 20.0 m? Use values from the book and show ALL of your work.
Liono4ka [1.6K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Period = 1/17 seconds

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Wavelength is related to period by the expression:

<em>speed = wavelength / period </em>

  • If we are given the speed, then we can easily calculate the period at the wavelength of 20 m.

<em>Given the speed of sound wave as 340 m/s </em>

<em>Period = Wavelength/ speed</em>

<em>            = 20 m/340 m/s</em>

<em>            </em><u><em>= 1/17 seconds</em></u>
