Answer:

0.03719 lbs/in³

Explanation:

Specific weight is given by multiplying the density of an object to the acceleration due to gravity.

\gamma =\rho g\\\Rightarrow \rho=\frac{gamma}{g}\\\Rightarrow \rho=\frac{10.1\times 10^3}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow \rho=1029.562\ kg/m^3

1\ kg=2.20462\ lb

1\ m=39.3701\ in

\\\Rightarrow 1029.562\ kg/m^3=\frac{1029.562\times 2.20462}{39.3701^3}=0.03719\ lbs/in^3

So,

10.1\ kN/m^3=0.03719\ lbs/in^3

Par 1/2
BaLLatris [955]

part 1

mass = ρ x V

mass = 1739 kg/m³ x 3.8 km³ = 6608.2 kg

PE (potential energy)= mgh

PE = 6608.2 kg x 9.81 x 403

PE = 2.61 x 10⁷ J

part 2

megaton of TNT (Mt) =4.2 x 10¹⁵ J

convert PE to Mt:

2.61 x 10⁷ J : 4.2 x 10¹⁵ J = 6.21 x 10⁻⁹ Mt

Josh did an experiment recording the changes in temperature in sand and water when exposed to a light source, and then when the
Marrrta [24]

Before going to solve this question first we have to understand specific heat capacity of a substance .

The specific heat of a substance is defined as amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance through one degree Celsius. Let us consider a substance whose mass is m.Let Q amount of heat is given to it as a result of which its temperature is raised  from T to T'.

Hence specific heat  of a substance is calculated as-

                                              c= \frac{Q}{m[T'-T]}

Here c is the specific heat capacity.

The substance whose specific heat capacity is more will take more time to be heated up to a certain temperature as compared to a substance having low specific heat which is to be heated up to the same temperature.

As per the question John is experimenting on sand and water.Between sand and water,water has the specific heat 1 cal/gram per degree centigrade which is larger as compared to sand.Hence sand will be heated faster as compared to water.The substance which is heated faster will also cools faster.

From this experiment John concludes that water has more specific heat as compared to sand.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

The Berlin Airlift is best described as the aircraft used to delivered needed food and supplies to the city of Berlin through the air because all other routes were blocked by the Soviet Union.

<h3>What is Berlin Airlift?</h3>

The Berlin airlift was a 1940s military operation that supplied West Berlin with food and other vital goods by air after the Soviet Union blockaded the city.

Thus, the Berlin Airlift is best described as the aircraft used to delivered needed food and supplies to the city of Berlin through the air because all other routes were blocked by the Soviet Union.
