A worker drives a spike into a rail tie with a 2.00-kg sledgehammer. This caused the internal energy of the hammer and spike to

increase by 1,250 Joules. If one half of the hammer’s kinetic energy is converted into the internal energy of the hammer and spike, what was the hammer’s speed when it hit the spike? In your computations, for the mass, use the mass of the hammer only.

Answer:

50 m/s

Explanation:

half of the hammer’s kinetic energy = internal energy of the hammer and spike

½ (½ mv²) = U

v² = 4U/m

v² = 4 (1250 J) / (2.00 kg)

v = 50 m/s

A 14-Ω coffee maker and a 14-Ω frying pan are connected in series across a 120-V source of voltage. A 20-Ω bread maker is also c
Ann [662]

Answer:

The total current supplied by the source of voltage = 10.29 A

Explanation:

We have a 14-Ω coffee maker and a 14-Ω frying pan are connected in series.

Effective resistance = 14 + 14 = 28Ω

Now we have 28Ω and 20Ω in parallel

Effective resistance

             R=\frac{28\times 20}{28+20}=11.67\Omega

So we have resistor with 11.67Ω in a 120 V source of voltage.

We have equation V = IR

Substituting

               120 = I x 11.67

                 I = 10.29 A

The total current supplied by the source of voltage = 10.29 A

Answer:

D) The given reaction is Exothermic, because energy is released

Explanation:

Here, given that Zinc is added to a beaker containing hydrochloric acid.

Also, the beaker gets warm.

⇒The energy is released in the form of heat.

EXOTHERMIC reactions are those type of reactions in which energy is released in the form of heat.

When the beaker gets warm, the reaction is exothermic in nature.

Hence, the given reaction is Exothermic, because energy is released

Light striking a metal surface causes electrons to be emitted from the metal via the photoelectric effect.In a particular experi
ANEK [815]

The number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases if the intensity of the incident light is increased.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

As a result of photoelectric effect, electrons are emitted by the light incident on a metal surface. The emitted electrons count and its kinetic energy can measure as the function of light intensity and frequency. Like physicists, at the 20th century beginning, it should be expected that the light wave's energy (its intensity) will be transformed into the kinetic energy of emitted electrons.

In addition, the electrons count emitting from metal must vary with light wave frequency. This frequency relationship was expected because the electric field oscillates due to the light wave and the metal electrons react to different frequencies. In other words, the number of electrons emitted was expected to be frequency dependent and their kinetic energy should be dependent on the intensity (constant wavelength) of light.

Thus, the maximum in kinetic energy of electrons emitted increases with increase in light's frequency and is experimentally independent of light intensity. So, the number of emitted electrons is proportionate to the intensity of the incident light.
