Answer:

Explanation:

When the puck is sliding on the ice, there is no force being exerted on the puck to keep it moving forward. Instead, inertia keeps the puck moving forward. Friction between the puck and the ice gradually slows the puck down. You hit a hockey puck and it slides across the ice at nearly a constant speed

What will be the final temperature if a 4.00 g silver ring at 41.0◦C if it gives off 18.0 J of heat to the surroundings? The spe

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Final temperature, $T_f=21.85^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of silver ring, m = 4 g

Initial temperature, $T_i=41^{\circ}C$

Heat released, Q = -18 J (as heat is released)

Specific heat capacity of silver, $c=0.235\ J/g\ C$

To find,

Final temperature

Solution,

The expression for the specific heat is given by :

$Q=mc\Delta T$

$Q=mc(T_f-T_i)$

$T_f=\dfrac{-Q}{mc}+T_i$

$T_f=\dfrac{-18}{4\times 0.235}+41$

$T_f=21.85^{\circ}$

So, the final temperature of silver is 21.85 degrees Celsius.

A storm is moving at 15 km/hr what to do to determine its velocity

WINSTONCH [101]

Check the current weather map for 2 different times, and see where the center of the storm is. That tells you what direction it's moving. With its speed and direction, you have its velocity.

How heavy is an object that displaces 400N of water in a pool?

julia-pushkina [17]

All we can say is that the object's volume is about 41 liters. That's the same as the volume of water displaced.

We can't say anything about the object's weight. There is no direct connection between the weight of the object and the weight of the water it displaces.
