Complete question:

(b) How much energy must be supplied to boil 2kg of water? providing that the specific latent heat of vaporization of water is 330 kJ/kg. The initial temperature of the water is 20 ⁰C

Answer:

The energy that must be supplied to boil the given mass of the water is 672,000 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of water, m = 2 kg

heat of vaporization of water, L =  330 kJ/kg

initial temperature of water, t = 20 ⁰C

specific heat capacity of water, c = 4200 J/kg⁰C

Assuming no mass of the water is lost through vaporization, the energy needed to boil the given water is calculated as;

Q = mc(100 - 20)

Q = 2 x 4200 x (80)  

Q = 672,000 J

Q = 672,000 J

Q = 672,000 J

Therefore, the energy that must be supplied to boil the given mass of the water is 672,000 J

A ball is thrown straight up into the air. At each of the following instants, is the ball's acceleration ay equal to g, −g, 0, g
Leto [7]

Answer:

a= (-g) from the moment the ball is thrown, until it stops in the air.

a = (0) when the ball stops in the air.

a = (g) since the ball starts to fall.

Explanation:

The acceleration is <em>(-g)</em> <em>from the moment the ball is thrown, until it stops in the air</em> because the movement goes in the opposite direction to the force of gravity. In the instant <em>when the ball stops in the air the acceleration is </em><em>(0)</em> because it temporarily stops moving. Then, <em>since the ball starts to fall, the acceleration is </em><em>(g)</em><em> </em>because the movement goes in the same direction of the force of gravity

What is terminal speed? When a skydiver has reached terminal speed, what is the are resistance equal to? What is the skydiver’s
Alla [95]
Terminal speed is the maximum speed that a falling object can reach and is based on aerodynamic resistance. In a vacuum, an object falling toward a planet as a result of gravity will continue to accelerate until it hits the ground.

However, if the object is falling through an atmosphere, such as on earth, then it will accelerate up to the point that the aerodynamic resistance cancels the downward force due to gravity, and it travels at a constant maximum speed, called the terminal velocity. At this point, resistance is equal to acceleration due to gravity. At terminal velocity, the skydiver's acceleration is zero.

A toy race car travels down a 25cm ramp in 5 seconds. Calculate its speed. A. 125 cm/sec B. 5 cm/sec C. 0.2 cm/sec D. 20 cm/sec
kipiarov [429]
This would be B, 5cm/sec.
To get this answer you would need to divided 25 which is how large the ramp is, and 5 seconds, the amount of time it took to travel down the ramp.
