When the car was stopped by the tree, its change in velocity during the collision was -6 meters/second. This change in velocity

occurred in 2 seconds. What was the acceleration of the car?

6 meters per second

You will need to add six two times to find the acceleration

If a hot steel tool of 1200°C was put in a bucket to cool and the bucket contained 15L of water of 15°C, and the water temperatu

Mashcka [7]

3.6 kg.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

How much heat does the hot steel tool release?

This value is the same as the amount of heat that the 15 liters of water has absorbed.

Temperature change of water:

$\Delta T = T_2 - T_1= 48\; \textdegree{\text{C}}- 15\; \textdegree{\text{C}} = 33 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ .

Volume of water:

$V = 15 \; \text{L} = 15 \; \text{dm}^{3} = 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{cm}^{3}$ .

Mass of water:

$m = \rho \cdot V = 1.00 \; \text{g} \cdot \text{cm}^{-3} \times 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{cm}^{3} = 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g}$ .

Amount of heat that the 15 L water absorbed:

$Q = c\cdot m \cdot \Delta T = 4.18 \; \text{J} \cdot \text{g}^{-1} \cdot \textdegree{\text{C}}^{-1} \times 15 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g} \times 33 \; \textdegree{\text{C}} = 2.06910 \times 10^{6}\; \text{J}$ .

What's the mass of the hot steel tool?

The specific heat of carbon steel is $0.49 \; \text{J} \cdot \text{g}^{-1} \cdot \textdegree{\text{C}}^{-1}$ .

The amount of heat that the tool has lost is the same as the amount of heat the 15 L of water absorbed. In other words,

$Q(\text{absorbed}) = Q(\text{released}) =2.06910 \times 10^{6}\; \text{J}$ .

$\Delta T = T_2 - T_1 = 1200\; \textdegree{\text{C}} -{\bf 48}\; \textdegree{\text{C}} = 1152\; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ .

$m = \dfrac{Q}{c\cdot \Delta T} = \dfrac{2.06910 \times 10^{6} \; \text{J}}{0.49\; \text{J} \cdot \text{g}^{-1} \cdot \textdegree{\text{C}}^{-1} \times 1152\; \textdegree{\text{C}}} = 3.6 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g} = 3.6 \; \text{kg}$ .

Is the Earth getting larger as more sea floor is added? explain

Natasha_Volkova [10]

The seafloor is only expanding in one area, which is the Atlantic Ocean. It's just Earth's seafloor recylcing itself.
