Answer:

the rotation of earth is determining what part of the sun faces what part of earth making time the part thats away from the sun would be night and the one facing the sun itself would be day

The Earth moves around the sun. A year is 365 days because that's how long it takes the Earth to go around one time. Seasons change depending on which part of the Earth is tilted closest to the sun. The sun is the source of nearly all the Earth's energy.

If there is a huge boulder on your lawn and you want to determine its density, but it is

Olin [163]

There are different options here but all of them work by approximating and assuming.

i) that the boulder is above ground.

ii) that the bottom surface of the boulder is known.

iii) the shape of the boulder is taken into account.

The most accurate way is measuring it by displacement method but the boulder is immovable hence the volume can be calculated by measuring the boulder or a waterproof box to be built around the boulder and calculate the volume occupied by boulder.

All the above methods are estimating methods.

*Another way to find the density is through specific gravity.

S.G = Density of object

Density of water

If the material that makes the boulder is known that is if it's stone or a mineral then the specific gravity can be found.

If the boulder is purely rock then S.G lies between 3 - 3.5 and the density of water is known thus the density of the boulder can be found without moving the boulder.

This is what I think after correction and allthe best!

A 235.0 g metal block absorbs 2.44 × 103 J of heat to raise its temperature by 35 K. What is the specific heat of the metal? Sho

andrew-mc [135]

When an object absorbs an amount of energy equal to Q, its temperature raises by $\Delta T$ following the formula
$Q=m C_s \Delta T$
where m is the mass of the object and $C_s$ is the specific heat capacity of the material.

In our problem, we have $Q=2.44 \cdot 10^3 J$ , $m=235.0 g$ and $\Delta T=35 K$ , so we can re-arrange the formula and substitute the numbers to find the specific heat capacity of the metal:
$C_s = \frac{Q}{m \Delta T}= \frac{2.44 \cdot 10^3 J}{(235.0 g)(35 K)}=0.297 J g^{-1} K^{-1}$

A larger object is made of two balls separated by a massless rigid rod that is 1.5 m long. The mass of the red ball at one end i

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The speed of the 1 kg red ball 8.04 m/s .

Explanation:

Given :

Separation between rods , d = 1.5 m .

Mass of the red ball is 1 kg .

Mass of the orange ball is 5.7 kg .

Angular velocity , $\omega=1\ rev/s = 2\pi\ rad/s$ .

Now , distance of center of mass from red ball is :

$r =\dfrac{0\times 1+1.5\times 5.7}{1+5.7}\\\\r = 1.28\ m$

We know , speed is given by :

$v=\omega r\\\\v=2 \times \pi \times 1.28\\\\v=8.04\ m/s$

Hence , this is the required solution .

Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes three processes in series that begin and end at the same state

topjm [15]

Answer:

a) W =400 kJ

b) W = 0 kJ

c) W =-160.944 KJ

Explanation:

Given

Process 1 ---> 2

The relation of the process P = constant

Pressure of point (1) P1 = 10 bar = P2

Volume of point (1) V1 = 1 m^3

Volume of point (2) V2 =4 m^3

The relation of the process V = constant

Process 2 ---> 3

The relation of the process V = constant

V3 = V2

Pressure of point (3) P3 = 10 bar

Volume of point (3) V3 = 4 m^3

Process 3 ---> 1 

The relation of the process PV = constant

Required

Sketch the processes on the PV coordinates

The work for each process in kJ

Solution

The work is defined by

W= $\int\limits^a_b {x} \, dx$

a=V2

b=V1

x=P

dx=dV

Process 1 ---> 2

P3 = P4 = 5 bar

W= $\int\limits^a_b {x} \, dx$

a=V3

b=V2

x=4

dx=dV

putting the value of a, b, x, dx in above integral

W=400 kJ

Process 2 ---> 3 

V = constant Then there is no change in the volume,hence W = 0 kJ

Process 3 ---> 1

By substituting with point (1) --> 5 x .2 = C ---> C = 1 P = 5V^-1

W= $\int\limits^a_b {x} \, dx$

a=V1

b=V3

x=1V^-1

dx=dV

putting the value of a, b, x, dx in above integral

W=| ln V | limit a and b

= -160.944 KJ
