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).

#82

here we know that

acceleration = 2 m/s/s

time = 5 s

initial speed = 4 m/s

now we can use kinematics to find the final speed

v_f = v_i + at

v_f = 4 + 2(5)

v_f = 14 m/s

So correct answer will be option D)

#83

here we know that

acceleration = 3 m/s/s

time = 4 s

initial speed = 5 m/s

now we can use kinematics to find the final speed

v_f = v_i + at

v_f = 5 + 3(4)

v_f = 17 m/s

So correct answer will be option C)

#84

here we know that

acceleration = 7 m/s/s

time = 3 s

initial speed = 8 m/s

now we can use kinematics to find the final speed

v_f = v_i + at

v_f = 8 + 7(3)

v_f = 29 m/s

So correct answer will be option C)

A certain comet has a parallax 1/40 as large as the moon. How far away is it (compared to the Moons distance)? Show Work
Ad libitum [116K]
The distance and parallax are inversely related. We can find the distance using the following equation:

d= \frac{1}{p}

where d is distance and p is parallax.

We are given the parallax of the comet relative to the moon, and we are looking for the distance to the comet relative to the moon's distance, so wee can plug in the following value:

d= \frac{1}{ \frac{1}{40} }

The distance is 40 times as far away as the moon.

on the surface of planet x a body with a mass of 10 kilograms weighs 40 newtons. The magnitude of the acceleration due to gravit
tamaranim1 [39]
Based on the Newton's second law of motion, the value of the net force acting on the object is equal to the product of the mass and the acceleration due to gravity. If we let a be the acceleration due to gravity, the equation that would allow us to calculate it's value is,
      W = m x a
where W is weight, m is mass, and a is acceleration. Substituting the known values,
    40 kg m/s² = (10 kg) x a
Calculating for the value of a from the equation will give us an answer equal to 4. 
ANSWER: 4 m/s².
