Answer:

<em>765,000Joules or 765kJ</em>

Explanation:

The Quantity of heat required is expressed as;

Q = (mcΔt)al + (mcΔt)water

m is the mass

c is specific heat capacity

Δt is the change in temperature

Q = (3(900)(90-5)) + (1.5(4200)(90-5))

Q = 2700*85 + 6300*85

Q = (2700+6300)85

Q = 9000*85

<em>Q = 765,000</em>

<em>Hence the amount of energy needed is 765,000Joules or 765kJ</em>

Two square air-filled parallel plates that are initially uncharged are separated by 1.2 mm, and each of them has an area of 190
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

5.5\cdot 10^{-11} C

Explanation:

The capacitance of the parallel-plate capacitor is given by:

C=\epsilon_0 \frac{A}{d}

where

\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m is the vacuum permittivity

A=190 mm^2 = 190 \cdot 10^{-6} m^2 is the area of the plates

d=1.2 mm = 0.0012 m is the separation between the plates

Substituting,

C=(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}) \frac{190 \cdot 10^{-6}}{0.0012}=1.4\cdot 10^{-12}F

The energy stored in the capacitor is given by

U=\frac{Q^2}{2C}

Since we know the energy

U=1.1 nJ = 1.1 \cdot 10^{-9} J

we can re-arrange the formula to find the charge, Q:

Q=\sqrt{2UC}=\sqrt{2(1.1\cdot 10^{-9} J)(1.4\cdot 10^{-12}F )}=5.5\cdot 10^{-11} C

6. State whether each of the following is an example of conduction, convection, and/or radiation. Explain if you think there is
hodyreva [135]
A).  Convection is heating the soup in the pot.
When you stick the spoon into the hot soup,
conduction heats the spoon all the way up to the end.

b).  Water conducts heat a little bit. 
But convection is much more responsible for the
uniform distribution of temperature in the kiddie pool.

c).  The heat from the metal bench conducts directly
to the buttus epidermis when you sit on it.

d).  You feel the heat on your face ... but not on the back of your
neck ... on account of radiation from the fire and the hot grill.

You are performing a knee extension exercise. You hold a 20kg weight at full knee extension. The weight is 0.4m from your knee j
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The moment is -78.4 N-m (clockwise).

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the object (m) = 20 kg

Distance of the object from the knee joint (d) = 0.4 m

Weight of leg is not considered.

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Now, weight of the object is equal to the product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity. So,

Weight = Mass × Acceleration due to gravity

            = mg=20\times 9.8 =196\ N

We know that, moment of a force about a point is defined as the product of force applied and the perpendicular distance between the point and the line of application of force.

Moment of the given weight about the knee joint is given as:

Moment about knee joint = Weight × Distance from knee joint to weight

Moment about knee joint = 196 × 0.4 = 78.4 Nm

Now, from the diagram below, we can observe that, the weight acts vertically down and thus the sense of rotation about the knee joint at point O is clockwise. So, moment is negative.

Therefore, the moment is -78.4 N-m (clockwise).
