When an object absorbs an amount of energy equal to Q, its temperature raises by
following the formula
where m is the mass of the object and
is the specific heat capacity of the material.
In our problem, we have
,
and
, so we can re-arrange the formula and substitute the numbers to find the specific heat capacity of the metal:
Answer:
C 3.6 cm, 56 degrees North of the East axis
Explanation:
The two vectors are perpendicular to each other, so we can find the magnitude of their resultant simply by using the Pythagorean theorem:
where
A = 2.0 cm is the magnitude of the first vector
B = 3.0 cm is the magnitude of the second vector
Substituting,
Now we have to find the angle. If we measure the angle as North of East, the tangent of the angle is equal to the ratio between the component along North and the component along East. Therefore, in this case:
So, 56 degrees North of East.
Both balls hit the ground at the same time.
We've known this fact for about 500 years (since Galileo),
and we've known WHY for about 300 years (since Newton).
Answer: 3976N
Explanation:
Using the formula for calculating gravitational force between two masses, we have
F = GMm/r^2
Where G is the gravitational constant
M and m are the masses
r is the distance between the masses
F= 6.673 × 10-¹¹ × 5.98 × 10²⁴ × 63.5/ (6.37 × 10^6)^2
F= 2.533×10^16/6.37×10^12
F= 0.3976×10⁴N
F= 3976N
