The specific heat(c) of copper is 0.39 J/g °C. What is the temperature
horsena [70]

Answer:12.8°c

Explanation:

specific heat capacity of copper(c)=0.39J*g°c

Mass(m)=20grams

Quantity of heat(Q)=100joules

Temperature rise(@)=?

@=Q/(mxc)

@=100/(20x0.39)

@=100/7.8

@=12.8°c

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The rougher a surface is, the more friction it can create.

Explanation:

The rougher a surface is, the more "holes" are on the edge which means things can get caught on in because multiple holes can catch each other.

identify the action reaction forces in each picture the first picture is done for you write your answer on a separate sheet of p
xxMikexx [17]

Newton's Third Law of Motion states that for every action there must exist an equal but opposite reaction.

This ultimately implies that, Newton's Third Law of Motion is a law based on action-reaction force pairs.

In this exercise, you're required to identify the action-reaction forces in the attached picture.

Under condition A, a boy is leaning against a wall;

  • The force being exerted by the boy on the wall is a force of action.
  • The force being exerted by the wall on the boy is a force of reaction.

Under condition B, a boy is jumping off a diving board.

  • The force being exerted by the feet of the boy on the diving board is a force of action.
  • The force being exerted by the diving board on the feet of the boy is a force of reaction.

Under condition C, a nail is being hammered into the wall.

  • The force being exerted by the hammer on the nail is a force of action.
  • The force being exerted by the nail on the hammer is a force of reaction.

Under condition D, a man is walking on a ground (floor).

  • The force being exerted by the foot of the man on the ground (floor) is a force of action.
  • The force being exerted by the ground (floor) on the foot of the man is a force of reaction.

Under condition E, a boy is holding a ball;

  • The force being exerted by the hand of the boy on the ball is a force of action.
  • The force being exerted by the ball on the hand of the boy is a force of reaction.
