Answer:

98J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of rock = 5kg

Height = 2m

Unknown:

Work done = ?

Solution:

The amount of work done is given as:

Work done = Force x distance

Work done = Weight x height

Work done = mgH

Now insert the parameters and solve;

Work done = 5 x 9.8 x 2 = 98J

Answer:

4.8L ( i.e 4.8 x 10^-3 m3)

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question.

Initial volume (V1) = 4.2L

Initial temperature (T1) = 0°C

Final temperature (T2) = 37°C

Final volume (V2) =?

Step 2:

Conversion of celsius temperature to Kelvin temperature. This is illustrated below

K = °C + 273

T1 = 0°C = 0°C + 273 = 273K

T2 = 37°C = 37°C + 273 = 310K

Step 3:

Determination of the final volume.

Since the pressure is constant,

Charles' Law equation will be applied as shown below:

V1 /T1 = V2/T2

4.2/273 = V2 /310

Cross multiply to express in linear form

273 x V2 = 4.2 x 310

Divide both side by 273

V2 = (4.2 x 310)/273

V2 = 4.8L ( i.e 4.8 x 10^-3 m3)

Therefore, the volume of the air in the lungs at that point is 4.8L ( i.e 4.8 x 10^-3 m3)

Find the energy released when there is a decrease of 0.3kg of material in a nuclear reaction

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

E = 2.7 x 10¹⁶ J

Explanation:

The release of energy associated with the mass can be calculated by Einstein's mass-energy relation, as follows:

$E = mc^2$

where,

E = Energy Released = ?

m = mass of material reduced = 0.3 kg

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Therefore,

$E = (0.3\ kg)(3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s)^2$

E = 2.7 x 10¹⁶ J

If two cars A and B are moving with velocity 60 km/hr and 80 km/hr

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

VAB = 20km/hr

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Velocity of car A, VA = 60km/hr

Velocity of car B, VB = 80km/hr

To find the relative velocity of B w.r.t A, VAB;

Since the two cars are moving in the same direction, we have;

VAB = VB - VA

Substituting into the equation, we have;

VAB = 80 - 60

VAB = 20km/hr

Therefore, the relative velocity of car B with respect to car A is 20 kilometers per hour.

An assault rifle fires an eight-shot burst in 0.40 s. Each bullet has a mass of 7.5 g and a speed of 300 m/s as it leaves the gu

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

The average recoil force on the gun during that 0.40 s burst is 45 N.

Explanation:

Mass of each bullet, m = 7.5 g = 0.0075 kg

Speed of the bullet, v = 300 m/s

Time, t = 0.4 s

The change in momentum of an object is equal to impulse delivered. So,

$F\times t=mv\\\\F=\dfrac{mv}{t}$

For 8 shot burst, average recoil force on the gun is :

$F=\dfrac{8mv}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{7.5}{1000}\cdot\dfrac{300}{0.4}\cdot8\\\\F=45\ N$

So, the average recoil force on the gun during that 0.40 s burst is 45 N.
