1 kg of aluminum requires 887 J (Joule) to raise its temperature by 1 K (Kelvin). The specific heat of aluminum is expressed as

(J/(kg*K)). For a 100 g aluminum bar, how much energy is needed to raise the temperature from -9oC to 1oC?

Answer:

887 J

Explanation:

the specific heat of  a material is defined as the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of the substance by 1 K of mass 1 kg. So, the specific heat of the aluminium, c = 887 J/kg K

mass of aluminium, m = 100 g = 0.1 kg

T1 = - 9° C

T2 = 1° C

ΔT = 1 + 9 = 10° C

The amount of heat required

H = m x c x ΔT

H = 0.1 x 887 x 10 = 887 J

An engine extracts 441.3kJ of heat from the burning of fuel each cycle, but rejects 259.8 kJ of heat (exhaust, friction,etc) dur
Lilit [14]

Answer:

  • The thermal efficiency is 0.4113.

Explanation:

We know that the thermal efficiency is the ratio of work done by the engine over the heat taken

\eta = \frac{W_{made}}{Q_{in}}

Now, how much work the engine do in a cycle?

We know that the work done in a cycle must be equal to the heat taken minus the heat rejected

W{made} = Q_{in} - Q_{rejected}

So, the thermal efficiency will be:

\eta = \frac{Q_{in} - Q_{rejected}}{Q_{in}}

\eta = \frac{Q_{in}}{Q_{in}} - \frac{Q_{rejected}}{Q_{in}}

\eta = 1 - \frac{Q_{rejected}}{Q_{in}}

Putting the values of the problem

\eta = 1 - \frac{259.8 kJ }{441.3kJ}

\eta = 0.4113

A satellite revolves around a planet at an altitude equal to the radius of the planet. the force of gravitational interaction be
padilas [110]
Let
M = the mass of the planet
n = the mass of the satellite.
r = the radius of the planet

When the satellite is at a distance r from the surface of the planet, the distance between the centers of the two masses is 2r.
The gravitational force between them is
f_{0} = \frac{GMm}{(2r)^{2}} = \frac{1}{4} ( \frac{GMm}{r^{2}} )
where
G =  the gravitational constant.

When the satellite is on the surface of the planet, the distance between the two masses is r.
The gravitational force between them is
f_{4} =   \frac{GMm}{r^{2}} =4f_{0}

Answer:  f_{4} = 4f_{0}

Imagine a star very similar to our own Sun in both size and mass. This star moves very slightly back and forth in the sky once e
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

(c) The planet must have a mass about the same as the mass of Jupiter,

(d) The planet must be closer to the star than Earth is to the Sun.

Explanation:

Astrometry is the ideal method to detect high-mass planets that are close to their star. That is because the gravitational effect that it will have the planet over its host star will be greater. This effect can be seen as a wobble in the star as a consequence of how they orbit a common center of mass¹. The center of mass will be closer to the most massive object, So, in the case of an extrasolar planet with masses like Jupiter (Jovian), this point will be a little bit farther from the star, making the wobble more notable than in a system with a low-mass planet.          

Key terms:

Astrometry: study of the position of the stars over time in the sky.

¹Center of mass: a geometrical point in which the mass from a whole system is summed.

Answer:

decreases, but frequency increases.

Explanation:

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional, meaning the higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength, and the lower the frequency, the longer the wavelength.

In a collision, the __________ collision is when an unsecured driver strikes the inside of the vehicle.
zaharov [31]
In a collision, the second collision is when an unsecured driver strikes the inside of the vehicle. It is a collision that happens between an occupant of a vehicle and the vehicle he is riding during the impact. The first collision would be the collision of the vehicle and the other object.
