Artemon [7]

Answer: Δθ = 127.4 K

Explanation: by using the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the bullet equals the heat energy on the plate.

Kinetic energy of bullet = mv²/2

Heat energy = mcΔθ

Where m = mass of bullet = 0.09kg, v = velocity of bullet = 182 m/s, c = specific heat capacity of lead bullet = 130 j/kgk

Δθ = change in temperature

mv²/2 = mcΔθ

With 'm' on both sides of the equation, they cancel out each other, hence we have that

v²/2 = cΔθ

v² = 2cΔθ

Δθ= v²/2c

Δθ = (182)²/2×130

Δθ = 33124/260

Δθ = 127.4 K

Example sentence for gravitational potential energy
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

An object falling loses gravitational potential energy and gains kinetic energy. The gravity potential is the gravitational potential energy per unit mass. This energy comes from the gravitational potential energy released when the water falls. ... At 0, all the energy is in gravitational potential energy.
