Answer:

when a plastic rod is rubbed with a duster, electrons are transferred from one material to the other. The material that gains electrons becomes negatively charged. The material that loses electrons becomes positively charged.

A 120-g block of copper is taken from a kiln and quickly placed into a beaker of negligible heat capacity containing 300 g of wa
gavmur [86]

Answer : The correct option is, (d) 535^oC

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of copper = 0.10cal/g^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 1.00cal/g^oC

m_1 = mass of copper = 120 g

m_2 = mass of water = 300 g

T_f = final temperature of mixture = 35^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of copper = ?

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 15^oC  

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

120g\times 0.10cal/g^oC\times (35-T_1)^oC=-300g\times 1.00cal/g^oC\times (35-15)^oC

T_1=535^oC

Therefore, the temperature of the kiln was, 535^oC

The energy of an onject as it is in motion is defined as?
Ivan

The energy of an object as it is in motion is defined as Kinetic energy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The energy that is attained by an object when it is moving is called as Kinetic energy. It is the amount of energy that is essential for inducing an acceleration in an object and making it to displace from its idle position to the destination. When an object attains the acceleration it can have this kinetic energy until there is a change in the speed of the object with which it moves.

The forms of energy changes and it can take any form like thermal, electrical, electromagnetic,etc. Potential and kinetic energy are the two things under which these forms are energy are grouped. There can be a transferring of Kinetic energy from one object to another. The kinetic energy can also take any form of energy.

QUESTION: A pure jet engine propels and aircraft at 340 m/s through air at 45 kPa and -13C. The inlet diameter of this engine is 1.6 m, the compressor pressure ratio is 13, and the temperature at the turbine inlet is 557C. Determine the velocity at the exit of this engines nozzle and the thrust produced.

ANSWER: Due to the propulsion from the inlet diameter of this engine bring 1.6 m allows the compressor rations to radiate allowing thrust propultion above all velocitic rebisomes.
