The heat capacity of a material is a physical property defined as the quantity of heat to be supplied to a given mass of a material in order to alter the temperature of the unit. Joule per kelvin is the SI unit of heat power.
Hope this helps :)

Answer:

Specific heat capacity is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of a substance by 1 kelvin (SI unit of specific heat capacity J kg−1 K−1).

A spectral line from a star is observed to have a wavelength of 656.5 nm. The rest wavelength of this line is 656.8 nm. (a) What
nignag [31]

Answer:

speed of star is  1.37 × 10^{5} m/s

it is approaching to earth because wavelength of star is decreasing than rest

if emit same wavelength it does not move anywhere

it will remain steady condition with respect earth

Explanation:

given data

wavelength = 656.5 nm

rest wavelength = 656.8 nm

to find out

the speed of the star , is it approaching

solution

we know here equation that is

wavelength shift / wavelength at rest  = velocity of source / speed of light

so put all value and find

velocity of source = 3 × 10^{-9} × 3 × 10^{8} / 656.8 × 10^{-9}

velocity of source star = 1.37 × 10^{5} m/s

and

it is approaching to earth because wavelength of star is decreasing than rest

and

if emit same wavelength it does not move anywhere

it will remain steady condition with respect earth

A beam of protons is directed in a straight line along the +z direction through a region of space in which there are crossed ele
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

B = 7.6 T   direction of + x

Explanation:

For the proton beam to continue in the same direction the electric and magnetic forces must be equal

              F_{m} - F_{e} = 0

              F_{m} = F_{e}

              Fm = q E

             

The electric force is in the direction of the electric field because it is the charge of the positive proton, the electric force goes in the direction of –y, therefore, the magnetic force cancels this force must go in the direction of + y

 The magnetic force is

             F_{m} = q v x B = q v B sin θ

             θ = 90

             B = q E / q v

             B = E / v

             B = 800/105

             B = 7.6 T

To find the direction of the magnetic field we use the right hand rule, the thumb goes in the direction of the proton velocity, the fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field and the palm is the direction of force, for a positive charge.

Thumb goes in the direction of the + z axis

Palm in the direction of +y

Fingers point in the direction of + x

Can you please tell me what this is
Anna [14]

Answer:

200000 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of roller coaster = 1000 Kg

Velocity (v) of roller coaster = 20 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

Kinetic energy is simply defined as the energy possess by an object in motion. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

KE = ½mv²

Where

KE => is the kinetic energy.

m =>is the mass of the object

V => it the velocity of the object.

With the above formula, we can obtain the kinetic energy of the roller coaster as follow:

Mass (m) of roller coaster = 1000 Kg

Velocity (v) of roller coaster = 20 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

KE = ½mv²

KE = ½ × 1000 × 20²

KE = 500 × 400

KE = 200000 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the roller coaster is 200000 J.

Can someone help me?
Alik [6]

Answer:

Resultant = 3.05N

Explanation:

r =  \sqrt{{5}^{2} + 5^{2} - 2(5)(5) \cos(120) }

r =  \sqrt{25 + 25 - 50(0.8142)}

r =  \sqrt{50 - 40.71}  =  \sqrt{9.29}

r = 3.05
