vagabundo [1.1K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The downwind side of an obstacle such as a ridge. The addition of weight on top of a snowpack, usually from precipitation, wind drifting, or a person. An avalanche that releases from a point and spreads downhill collecting more snow - different from a slab avalanche. Also called a point-release or sluff.

A 5.0-kg block of wood is placed on a 2.0-kg aluminum frying pan. How much heat is required to raise the temperature of both the
Shalnov [3]

Heat required to raise the temperature of a given system is

Q = ms\Delta T

here we know that

m = mass

s = specific heat capacity

\Delta T = change in temperature

now as we know that

mass of wood = 5 kg

mass of aluminium pan = 2 kg

change in temperature = 45 - 20 = 25 degree C

specific heat capacity of wood = 1700 J/kg C

specific heat capacity of aluminium = 900 J/kg C

now here we will find the total heat to raise the temperature of both

Q = m_1s_1\Delta T_1 + m_2s_2\Delta T_2

Q = 5 * 1700 * 25 + 2 * 900 * 25

Q = 212500 + 45000

Q = 257500 J

So heat required to raise the temperature of the system is 257500 J

german

Answer:

 F = 1.047 10⁻² N

Explanation:

Let's use kinematics to find the angular acceleration

             w = w₀ + α t

as for rest w₀ = 0

             w = α t

             α = w / t

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

              w = 1000 rev / min (2π rad/ 1 rev) (1 min/ 60s) = 104.72 rad / s

              m = 1.00 g (1 kg / 1000 g) = 1,000 10⁻³ kg

              r = 10.0 cm (1 m / 100 cm) = 0.100 m

let's calculate

              α = 104.72 / 1

              α = 104.72 rad / s²

angular and linear variables are related

               a = α  r

               a = 104.72 0.100

               a = 10.47 m / s²

finally we substitute in Newton's second law

               F = 1 10⁻³ 10.47

               F = 1.047 10⁻² N
