The specific heat capacity of a substance is the amount of energy needed to change the temperature of 1 kg of the substance by 1 degree Celsius.
Answer:
Slope = 2 m / 10 m = 1/5
For every 5 m of effort the object will be raised 1 m
W = work done on object = M g h increase in PE of object
E S = W where E is effort and S the distance thru which the effort acts
E S = M g H
E = 100 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 2 m / 10 m = 196 kg m / s^2 = 196 N
Check: total work = 2 * 9.8 * 100 = 1960 J
Force Needed = 1960 J / 2 m = 980 Newtons
Mechanical advantage = 980 / 196 = 5 as one would expect since the object is raised 1 m for every 5 m of force input

Answer:
The wavelength of these signals is as follow:
- Wavelength of 550 kHz is 545.45 m
- Wavelength of 1600 kHz is 187.5 m
Explanation:
Given that:
Frequency = 550 kHz & 1600 kHz
Velocity = 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s
As we know that frequency is expressed by the following equation:
- Frequency = Velocity / Wavelength ---- (1)
For 550 kHz:
The equation can be rearranged as
Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency
Wavelength = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (550 x 1000 Hz)
Wavelength = 545.45 m
For 1600 kHz:
Wavelength = Velocity / Frequency
Wavelength = (3.0 x 10⁸ m/s) / (1600 x 1000 Hz)
Wavelength = 187.5 m
Answer:
D. Upward force on the shuttle
Explanation:
The hot gas from space shuttles released downward causes an upward force on the shuttle and propels it up the more.
- This hot gas is produced from super cooled oxygen and hydrogen tanks within the shuttle.
- The upward force on the shuttle allows the craft to escape the gravitational pull of the earth on the shuttle
- Special level of rapid acceleration must be attained for the shuttle to escape the earth pull.
