Answer:

500cal

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of water  = 50g

Initial temperature  = 22°C

Final temperature  = 32°C

Specific heat of water  = 1cal/g

Unknown:

Amount of heat absorbed by the water in calories  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

       H  = m c Ф

H is the amount of heat absorbed

m is the mass

c is the specific heat capacity

Ф is the temperature change

       H  = 50 x 1 x (32  - 22)  = 500cal

A ball with 100 J of PE is released from a height of 10 m. What will be the KE of the ball at 5
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

The kinetic energy is: 50[J]

Explanation:

The ball is having a potential energy of 100 [J], therefore

PE = [J]

The elevation is 10 [m], and at this point the ball is having only potential energy, the kinetic energy is zero.

E_{p} =m*g*h\\where:\\g= gravity[m/s^{2} ]\\m = mass [kg]\\m= \frac{E_{p} }{g*h}\\ m= \frac{100}{9.81*10}\\\\m= 1.01[kg]\\\\

In the moment when the ball starts to fall, it will lose potential energy and the potential energy will be transforme in kinetic energy.

When the elevation is 5 [m], we have a potential energy of

P_{e} =m*g*h\\P_{e} =1.01*9.81*5\\\\P_{e} = 50 [J]\\

This energy is equal to the kinetic energy, therefore

Ke= 50 [J]

A family has a furnace that uses natural gas to heat their home. They are moving to an area that offers the option of using ener
Murrr4er [49]

The disadvantage will the family most likely face by making this switch is that solar power has a less reliable production of heat.Option A is correct.

<h3>What is a power plant?</h3>

A power plant is an industrial structure that generates electricity. The majority of power plants are linked to the electrical grid.

Nuclear power bare a form of the thermal power plant. You have a reactor where fission takes place and heat is generated, a heat exchanger that transports this heat to where it is needed.

Thermal power plant equipment converts this heat into electric energy, usually via a steam turbine.

The household will most likely experience a disadvantage from this decision in that solar power produces heat less consistently.

Hence option A is correct,

A hollow spherical shell has mass 8.20 kg and radius 0.220 m. It is initially at rest and then rotates about a stationary axis t
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

8.91 J

Explanation:

mass, m = 8.20 kg

radius, r = 0.22 m

Moment of inertia of the shell, I = 2/3 mr^2

                                                    = 2/3 x 8.2 x 0.22 x 0.22 = 0.265 kgm^2

n = 6 revolutions

Angular displacement, θ = 6 x 2 x π = 37.68 rad

angular acceleration, α = 0.890 rad/s^2

initial angular velocity, ωo = 0 rad/s

Let the final angular velocity is ω.

Use third equation of motion

ω² = ωo² + 2αθ

ω² = 0 + 2 x 0.890 x 37.68

ω = 8.2 rad/s

Kinetic energy,

K = \frac{1}{2}I\omega ^{2}

K = 0.5 x 0.265 x 8.2 x 8.2

K = 8.91 J

If you know the amount of air pressure exerted on a tabletop, how can you calculate the force exerted on the tabletop? Multiply
babymother [125]

Answer:

Multiply the air pressure by the area of the tabletop.

Explanation:

The relationship between pressure, force and area is given by:

p=\frac{F}{A}

where in this case, p is the air pressure, F is the force exerted and A the area of the tabletop. By re-arranging the equation, we can solve for F, the force exerted:

p=\frac{F}{A}\\p\cdot A=\frac{F}{A}\cdot A\\pA=F

So, the correct answer is:

The force exerted on the tabletop can be found by multiplying the air pressure by the area of the tabletop.
