A nail driven into a board increases in temperature.

Physics

Answer:

ΔT = 40.91 °C

Explanation:

First we find the kinetic energy of one hit to the nail:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

where,

K.E = Kinetic energy = ?

m = mass of hammer = 1.6 kg

v = speed of hammer = 7.7 m/s

Therefore,

K.E = (1/2)(1.6 kg)(7.7 m/s)²

K.E = 47.432 J

Now, for 10 hits:

K.E = (10)(47.432 J)

K.E = 474.32 J

Now, we calculate the heat energy transferred (Q) to the nail. As, it is the 59% of K.E. Therefore,

Q = (0.59)K.E

Q = (0.59)(474.32 J)

Q = 279.84 J

The change in energy of nail is given as:

Q = mCΔT

where,

m = mass of nail = 7.6 g = 0.0076 kg

C = specific heat capacity of aluminum = 900 J/kg.°C

ΔT = Increase in temperature = ?

Therefore,

279.84 J = (0.0076 kg)(900 J/kg.°C)ΔT

ΔT = (279.84 J)/(6.84 J/°C)

<u>ΔT = 40.91 °C</u>

On a frictionless surface how much force is necessary to accelerate a 0.49 kg object to the left at 4.8 m/s2?
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

<h2>2.35 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

force = 0.49 × 4.8 = 2.352

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.35 N</h3>

A stone is thrown horizontally at 60.0 m/sm/s from the top of a very tall cliff. Calculate its horizontal position and vertical
svp [43]

Answer:

X-Positions:                                         Y-Positions

x(0) = 0                                                   y(0) = 0

x(2) = 120 m                                           y(2) = 19.6 m

x(4) = 240 m                                          y(4) = 78.4 m

x(6) = 360 m                                          y(6) = 176.4 m

x(8) = 480 m                                          y(8) = 313 m

x(10) = 600m                                         y (10) = 490 m

Explanation:

X-Positions

  • First, we choose to take the horizontal direction as our x-axis, and the positive x-axis as positive.
  • After being thrown, in the horizontal direction, no external influence acts on the stone, so it will continue in the same direction at the same initial speed of 60. 0 m/s
  • So, in order to know the horizontal position at any time t, we can apply the definition of average velocity, rearranging terms, as follows:

       x = v_{ox} * t = 60.0 m/s * t(s)

  • It can be seen that after 2 s, the displacement will be 120 m, and each 2 seconds, as the speed is constant, the displacement will increase in the same 120 m each time.

Y-Positions

  • We choose to take the vertical direction as our y-axis, taking the downward direction as our positive axis.
  • As both axes are  perpendicular each other, both movements are independent each other also, so, in the vertical direction, the stone starts from rest.
  • At any moment, it is subject to the acceleration of gravity, g.
  • As the acceleration is constant, we can find the vertical displacement (taking the  height of the cliff as the initial reference level), using the following kinematic equation:

       y = \frac{1}{2} * g* t^{2} = \frac{1}{2} * 9.8 m/s2 * t(s)^{2}

  • Replacing by the values of t, we get the following vertical positions, from the height of the cliff as y = 0:
  • y(2) = 2* 9.8 m/s2 = 19.6 m
  • y(4) = 8* 9.8 m/s2 = 78.4 m
  • y(6) = 18*9.8 m/s2 = 176.4 m
  • y(8) = 32*9.8 m/s2 = 313.6 m
  • y(10)= 50 * 9.8 m/s2 = 490.0 m

Can someone please help me​
pickupchik [31]

Answer:C (198 seconds)

Explanation: The cyclist makes the first lap in (180.00 - 6.00) = 174.00 seconds. The average time per lap for all three circuits is (600.00 - 6.00) = 594/3 = 198 seconds.

What are the reactants of cellular respiration? Check all that apply. carbon dioxide energy glucose oxygen water
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Glucose and Oxygen

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process whereby cells derives energy by the use of glucose and oxygen.

Organisms that use cellular respiration to produce their energy are known as heterotophs. They derive the glucose from food materials obtained from plant sources. They use the oxygen from the environment to liberate energy from the glucose obtained from feeding on plant materials.

Cellular respiration can be simply expressed as shown below:

GLUCOSE + OXYGEN → CO₂ + H₂O + ATP

The reactants are glucose and oxygen.

The products are CO₂, water and ATP
