Answer:

40479.6 J

Explanation:

Applying,

q = cm(t₂-t₁).................... Equation 1

Where q = change in heat content of the system, c = specific heat capacity of the system, m = mass of the system, t₁ = initial temperature, t₂ = final temperature.

From the question,

Given: m = 79 g = 0.079 kg, t₁ = 21°C, t₂ = 143°C

Constant: c = 4200 J/kg.°C

Substitute these values into equation 1

q = 4200(0.079)(143-21)

q = 331.8(122)

q = 40479.6 J

4. How does a molecule differ from an atom
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a molecule, atoms are bonded together by single, double, or triple bonds. An atom has a nucleus surrounded by electrons. ... So another difference between atoms and molecules is that when similar atoms combine together in varying numbers, molecules of different properties can be formed.

Baseball player swings and hits a pop fly straight up in the air to the catcher. the height of the baseball in meters t seconds
andre [41]
The height at time t is given by
h(t) = -4.91t² + 34.3t + 1

When the ball reaches maximum height, its derivative, h'(t) = 0.
That is,
-2(4.91)t+34.3 = 0
-9.82t + 34.3 = 0
t = 3.4929 s

Note that h''(t) = -9.82 (negative) which confirms that h will be maximum.

The maximum height is
hmax = -4.91(3.4929)² + 34.3(3.4929) + 1
          = 60.903 m

Answer:
The ball attains maximum height in 3.5 s (nearest tenth).
The ball attains a maximum height of 60.9 m (nearest tenth)

You are the juror of a case involving a drunken driver whose 1041 kg sports car ran into a stationary 1928 kg station wagon stop
mina [271]
1. Find the force of friction between the sports car and the station wagon stuck together and the road. The total mass m = 1928kg + 1041kg = 2969kg. The only force in the x-direction is friction: F = μ*N = μ * m * g 
2. Find the acceleration due to friction: 
F = m*a =  μ * m * g => a = μ * g = 0.6 * 9.81
3. Find the time it took the two cars stuck together to slide 12m:
x = 0.5*a*t² 
t = sqrt(2*x / a) = sqrt(2 * x / (μ * g) )
4. Find the initial velocity of the two cars:
v = a*t = μ * g * sqrt(2 * x / (μ * g) ) = sqrt( 2 * x * μ * g)
5. Use the initial velocity of the two cars combined to find the velocity of the sports car. Momentum must be conserved:

m₁ mass of sports car
v₁ velocity of sports car before the crash
m₂ mass of station wagon
v₂ velocity of station wagon before the crash = 0
v velocity after the crash

m₁*v₁ + m₂*v₂ = (m₁+m₂) * v = m₁*v₁ 
v₁ = (m₁+m₂) * v / m₁ = (m₁+m₂) * sqrt( 2 * x * μ * g) / m₁
v₁ = 33.9 m/s
