Given :

Mass of water, m = 2 grams.

The temperature of water drops from 31 °C to 29 °C .

The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/(g • °C).

To Find :

Amount of heat lost in this process.

Solution :

We know, heat lost is given by :

$Heat\ lost,H = ms( T_f - T_i)\\\\H = 2\times 4.184 \times ( 31 - 29 )\ J\\\\H = 16.736\ J$

Therefore, amount of heat lost in this process is 16.736 J.

An electron that has an instantaneous velocity of ???? = 2.0 × 106 m ???? ???? + 3.0 × 106 m ???? ???? is moving through the uni

Setler79 [48]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Velocity of the electron, $v=(2\times 10^6i+3\times 10^6j)\ m/s$

Magnetic field, $B=(0.030i-0.15j)\ T$

Charge of electron, $q_e=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

(a) Let $F_e$ is the force on the electron due to the magnetic field. The magnetic force acting on it is given by :

$F_e=q_e(v\times B)$

$F_e=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times [(2\times 10^6i+3\times 10^6j)\times (0.030i-0.15j)]$

$F_e=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\times (-390000)(k)$

$F_e=6.24\times 10^{-14}k\ N$

(b) The charge of electron, $q_p=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

The force acting on the proton is same as force on electron but in opposite direction i.e (-k). Hence, this is the required solution.

A) A spaceship passes you at a speed of 0.800c. You measure its length to be 31.2 m .How long would it be when at rest?

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a

$l_o =52 \ m$

b

$l = 37.13 \ LY$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed of the spaceship is $v = 0.800c$

Here c is the speed of light with value $c = 3.0*10^{8} \ m/s$

The length is $l = 31.2 \ m$

The distance of the star for earth is $d = 145 \ light \ years$

The speed is $v_s = 2.90 *10^{8}$

Generally the from the length contraction equation we have that

$l = l_o \sqrt{1 -[\frac{v}{c } ]}$

Now the when at rest the length is $l_o$

So

$l_o =\frac{l}{\sqrt{ 1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2 } } }$

$l_o =\frac{ 31.2 }{ \sqrt{1 - \frac{(0.800c ) ^2}{c^2} } }$

$l_o=52 \ m$

Considering b

Applying above equation

$l =l_o \sqrt{1 - [\frac{v}{c } ]}$

Here $l_o =145 \ LY(light \ years )$

So

$l=145 * \sqrt{1 - \frac{v_s^2}{c^2 } }$

$l =145 * \sqrt{ 1 - \frac{2.9 *10^{8}}{3.0*10^{8}} }$

$l = 37.13 \ LY$

How is newton's first law used in basketball?

arlik [135]

Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest, while an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless an external force acts upon it. This law appears in basketball when the player is shooting the ball. When the player is holding the ball, the ball is at rest but when a player shoots the ball, they use force to throw the ball in the hoop.
