Answer:

12 kg

Explanation:

q = 52,800 J

c = 880 J/(kg * K) Pretty sure you missed the kg here

ΔT = 5 °C = 5 K (reminder that this only applies to ΔT and not T)

q = mcΔT ⇒ m = q/(cΔT) = 52,800 J / (880 J/(kg * K) * 5 K) = 12 kg

A boulder of mass 2000. kg breaks loose of a mountainside and plunges 200. m straight down into a lake at a temperature of 5.00◦
natka813 [3]

Answer:

DS = 13865.7[J/K]

Explanation:

We can calculate the energy of the rock, like the potential energy relative to the lake level. Which can be calculated by means of the following expression of the potential energy:

E_{p}=m*g*h\\\\where:\\m = mass = 2000[kg]\\h = elevation = 200 [m]\\g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

Therefore:

E_{p}=2000*9.81*200\\E_{p}=3924000 [J]\\

This energy is transformed into thermal energy.

we shall remember that isothermal heat transfer processes are internally reversible, so the entropy change of a system during one of these processes can be determined, by the following expression.

DS=\frac{Q}{T}\\ where:\\DS = entropy change [J/K]\\Q = Heat transfer [J]\\T = temperature [K]

T = 5 + 278 = 283[K]

DS = 3924000 / 283

DS = 13865.7[J/K]

How are the energy conversions of machines similar to the energy conversions in your body
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

When we eat food, our body gets chemical energy from it. Now, this chemical energy from the food is changed into some different energy forms that is useful to it. They include:

-Chemical to mechanical energy to aid in movement of muscles

- chemical to thermal energy to aid in regulating the body temperature.

- chemical to electrical energy to aid the brain in thinking.

Thus is similar to how a machine converts energy because machines also generate energy after being powered and convert to other forms of energy. For example, an alarm clock converts electrical energy to sound energy, hair dryer converts electrical energy to thermal/heat energy.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Passed into the power grid for others to use the electricity

Explanation:

If a home uses a large supply of solar panels to generate electricity, but has no battery system, surplus electricity that is produced is usually passed into the power grid for others to use the electricity, generating a income to the homeowner
