If the ice absorbed 350,000 joules in 5 minutes, then it absorbed energy
at the rate of

   (350,000 joules) / (5 x 60 seconds)  =<em>  1,166-2/3 watts</em> .

Surely the ice cube didn't absorb every joule delivered to the cooking chamber,
so the microwave oven's cooking power had to be significantly more than that.

Transverse waves are sent along a 4.50 m long string with a speed of 85.00 m/s. The string is under a tension of 20.00 N. What i
frutty [35]

Answer:

m = 0.0125 kg

Explanation:

Let us apply the formula for the speed of a wave on a string that is under tension:

v = \sqrt{\frac{F}{\mu} }

where F = tension force

μ = mass per unit length

Mass per unit length is given as:

μ  = m / l

where m = mass of the string

l = length of the string

This implies that:

v = \sqrt{\frac{F}{m/l} }\\ \\v = \sqrt{\frac{F * l}{m} }

Let us make mass, m, the subject of the formula:

v^2 = \frac{F * l}{m}\\\\m = \frac{F * l}{v^2}

From the question:

F = 20 N

l = 4.50 m

v = 85 m/s

Therefore:

m = \frac{20 * 4.5}{85^2}\\\\m = \frac{90}{7225}\\ \\m = 0.0125 kg

Lina20 [59]
The attraction of an object to something else with mass. What is the solar 
system? The solar system is the alignment of planets around the sun. All the planets are in orbit around the sun. Our Solar System There are also Asteroids, comets, moons, and other forms of matter throughout space So What is the major role of gravity in our solar system? Holding Everything In Place. Without gravity a lot of things
<span>would go wrong. If there was no gravitational force on planets, people would float off into the sky.</span>

Which kind of road surface is easier to see when driving at night, a pebbled uneven surface or a mirror smooth surface?
pshichka [43]
A pebbled, uneven road would be easier to see at night because it minimizes the reflection of light from car’s light coming in the opposite direction. It is difficult to see when driving on the rainy day because the roadway reflects light from cars coming in the opposite <span>directions.</span>
