<u>Answer </u>
A. that the initial gravitational potential energy of the masses transformed into kinetic energy of the paddles and then to thermal energy in the water
<u>Explanation</u>
James Joule allowed some water to fall from a height of 1 foot. the water would turn a paddle wheel at the bottom causing a temperature of water to raise.
The height form which the water fell, mass and the temperature of water was measured and used to calculate mechanical equivalent of heat.
From the choices given the best answer is A. that the initial gravitational potential energy of the masses transformed into kinetic energy of the paddles and then to thermal energy in the water.
Answer:
331.7m/s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity = 100m/s
Acceleration = 50m/s²
Distance = 1km = 1000m
Unknown:
Final velocity = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we have to apply the right motion equation shown below;
v² = u² + 2aS
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
S is the distance
Now insert the parameters and solve;
v² = 100² + (2 x 50 x 1000)
v² = 110000
v = √110000 = 331.7m/s
Answer: 4 is the subscript in
.
Explanation:
We know that,
Subscript: The number of atom present in a given compound.
In
, 4 represents the number of chlorine atom in 1 mole of Silicon tetra chloride.
Coefficient: Number of atom which is used in reaction.
For example: In
, 3 is the coefficient of silicon tetra chloride.
A Product : In the balance equation, right hand side is called product.
A reactant : In the balance equation, left hand side is called reactant.
For example: the balance equation is

In this equation,
is the reactants and
is products.
Hence, 4 is the subscript in
.
