Answer: 4276.2 calories

Explanation:

Given

mass of steam is 6 gm at $100^{\circ}C$

Conversion of steam to ice involves

steam to water at $100^{\circ}C$

water at $100^{\circ}C$ to water at $0^{\circ}C$

water to the ice at $0^{\circ}C$

Calories released during the conversion of steam to water at $100^{\circ}C$

$E_1=mL_v\quad [L_v=\text{latent heat of vaporisation}]\\E_1=6\times 533=3198\ cal.$

Calories released during the conversion of water at $100^{\circ}C$ to water at $0^{\circ}C$

$E_2=mc(\Delta T)\quad [c=\text{specific heat of water,}1\ cal./gm.^{\circ}C]\\E_2=6\times 1\times 100=600\ cal.$

Calories released during the conversion of water to the ice at $0^{\circ}C$

$E_3=mL_f\quad [L_f=\text{latent heat of fusion}]\\E_3=6\times 79.7=478.2\ cal.$

The total energy released is

$E=E_1+E_2+E_3\\E=3198+600+478.2=4276.2\ cal.$

What relationship exists between speed, velocity, and acceleration

enyata [817]

Velocity is speed and the direction of the speed. Acceleration is the rate at which Velocity is changing, and the direction in which it's changing.

An electron accelerated from rest through a voltage of 780 v enters a region of constant magnetic field. part a part complete if

maxonik [38]

The electron is accelerated through a potential difference of $\Delta V=780 V$ , so the kinetic energy gained by the electron is equal to its variation of electrical potential energy:
$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = e \Delta V$
where
m is the electron mass
v is the final speed of the electron
e is the electron charge
$\Delta V$ is the potential difference

Re-arranging this equation, we can find the speed of the electron before entering the magnetic field:
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{2 e \Delta V}{m} } = \sqrt{ \frac{2(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(780 V)}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg} }=1.66 \cdot 10^7 m/s$

Now the electron enters the magnetic field. The Lorentz force provides the centripetal force that keeps the electron in circular orbit:
$evB=m \frac{v^2}{r}$
where B is the intensity of the magnetic field and r is the orbital radius. Since the radius is r=25 cm=0.25 m, we can re-arrange this equation to find B:
$B= \frac{mv}{er}= \frac{(9.1 \cdot 10^{-31}kg)(1.66 \cdot 10^7 m/s)}{(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(0.25 m)} =3.8 \cdot 10^{-4} T$

Two pool balls, each moving at 2 m/s, roll toward each other and collide. Suppose after bouncing apart, each moves at 2 m/s. Thi

stira [4]

Answer:D

Explanation:according to the law of conservation of energy/momentum, when two bodies collides, their total momentum and energy before and after collision are equal. Given that the two bodies move with the same velocities after collision, means that the law has not been violated since momentum = mass x velocity (where mass is constant)
