We get heat on earth from the sun. Energy from the sun is transferred through space and through earths atmosphere to the earths surface. And since this warms the earth surface it creates heat.

5. How much heat is generated when an
Mila [183]

Answer:

I HOPE THIS IS CORRECT

Explanation:

Power of water =2 kw=2000w

Mass of water =200kg

difference in temperature ΔT=70−10=60oC

Concept

energy required to heat the water = energy given by water in time t=pt

energy required to increase tempeature of water by 60oC,Q=msΔT

S= specific heat =4200J/kgoC

              pt=msΔT

   2000×t=200×4200×60

      t=25200  

or   t=25.2×103sec.

a car is moving 8.80 m/s when it begins to accelerate at 2.45 m/s^2. how much time does it take to trav 138m. please help me (':
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

7.6 s

Explanation:

Considering kinematics formula for final velocity as

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

Where v and u are final and initial velocities, a is acceleration and s is distance moved.

Making v the subject then

v=\sqrt{u^{2}+2as}

Substituting 8.8 m/s for u, 138 m for s and 2.45 m/s2 for a then

v=\sqrt{8.8^{2}+2*2.45*138}\\v=27.45 m/s

Also, v=u+at and making t the subject of the formula

t=\frac {v-u}{a}

Substituting 27.45 m/s for v, 8.8 m/s for u and 2.45 m/s for a then

t=\frac {27.45-8.8}{2.45}=7.6122448979591\approx 7.6s

Therefore, it needs 7.6 seconds to travel

A car speeds up from 18.54 m/s to<br> 29.52 m/s in 13.84 s.<br> The acceleration of the car is:
valkas [14]

Answer:

.7934m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Acceleration = change in velocity / change in time

A = 10.98m/s / 13.84s

A = .7934m/s^{2}
