Physics
1 answer:
Daniel [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

something that can be burned to produce heat

Explanation:

Combustion can be defined as an exothermic chemical reaction between physical substances, usually in the presence of oxygen and hydrocarbons to produce heat, light and carbon.

A fuel can be defined as something that can be burned to produce heat.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

A bullet with a mass of 5.00 x 10^-3 kg is loaded into a gun. The loaded gun has a mass of 0.52 kg. The bullet is fired, causing
beks73 [17]
For the answer to the question above,
 220 m/s 
<span>mass of the bullet * velocity of the bullet = mass of the gun * velocity of the gun </span>
<span>0.005 kg * v = 0.52 kg * 2.1 m/s </span>
<span>-> v = (0.52kg * 2.1 m/s) / 0.005 kg = 218.4 m/s 
</span>I hope my answer helped you. Have a nice day!

On a frozen pond, a 8.54-kg sled is given a kick that imparts to it an initial speed of ð£0=1.87 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:2.05 m

Explanation:

Given

Mass of sled m=8.54 kg

initial speed u=0.187 m/s

coefficient of kinetic Friction \mu _k=0.087

According to work-energy theorem work done by all the forces is change in Kinetic energy

W_{friction}=\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2-\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2

\mu _kmg\times d=\frac{1}{2}\times 8.54\times 1.87^2 ,where d= distance moved

0.087\times 8.54\times 9.8\times d=14.93

d=\frac{14.93}{7.281}

d=2.05 m
