In the winter months the number of daylight hours decreases. What accounts for this change?

atroni [7]

Answer: 1896.55J/kg°C

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) required to heat a material depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since,

Q = 1320 joules

Mass of material = 5.61kg

C = ? (let unknown value be Z)

Φ = 0.124°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

1320J = 5.61kg x Z x 0.124°C

1320J = 0.696kg°C x Z

Z = (1320J / 0.696kg°C)

Z = 1896.55 J/kg°C

Thus, the specific heat of the material is 1896.55J/kg°C

A typical ceiling fan running at high speed has an airflow of about 1.85 ✕ 103 ft3/min, meaning that about 1.85 ✕ 103 cubic feet

densk [106]

Answer:

0.8726 $m^3/s$

Explanation:

We are to convert 1.85 x $10^3$ $ft^3/min$ to $m^3/s$

First, let us convert the numerator from ft3 to m3

1 ft3 = 0.0283 m3

Hence,

1.85 x $10^3$ ft3 = 1.85 x $10^3$ x 0.0283 m3

= 52.355 m3

Now, let us convert the denominator from minutes to seconds

1 min = 60 sec

Therefore;

1.85 x $10^3$ $ft^3/min$ = 52.355/60 $m^3/s$

= 0.8726 $m^3/s$

What is the form of energy that is produced in all energy transformations?

Damm [24]

Answer: Long Answer...

Explanation: Most of the time, chemical energy is released in the form of heat, and this transformation from chemical energy to heat, or thermal energy, is called an exothermic reaction. Next, there are two main types of mechanical energy: kinetic energy and potential energy.

8. A turtle crawls along a straight line, which we will call the x-axis with the positive direction to the right. The equation f

pychu [463]

(a) The turtle's initial velocity is 4 m/s, initial position of the turtle is 5 cm, and initial acceleration is -1.25 m/s².

(b) The time when the velocity of the turtle is zero is 3.2 s.

(c) The time taken for the turtle to return to its starting point is 6.4 s.

(d) The time taken for the turtle to travel 30 cm is 0.08 s.

<h3>Initial velocity of the turtle</h3>

The initial velocity of the turtle is calculated as follows;

$v = \frac{dx}{dt} \\\\x = 5 + 4t -0.625t^2\\\\v(t) = 4 - 1.25t\\\\v(0) = 4-0\\\\v(0) = 4 \ m/s$

<h3>Initial acceleration of the turtle</h3>

The initial acceleration of the turtle is calculated as follows;

$a = \frac{dv}{dt} \\\\v(t) = 4 - 1.25t\\\\a = -1.25\ m/s^2$

<h3>Initial position of the turtle</h3>

x(t) = 5 + 4t - 0.625t²

x(0) = 5 cm

<h3>Time when the velocity becomes zero</h3>

v(t) = 4 - 1.25t

0 = 4 - 1.25t

1.25t = 4

t = 4/1.25

t = 3.2 s

<h3>Time taken to return to starting point</h3>

The total distance traveled is calculated as follows

v² = u² + 2ad

0 = (4)² + 2(-1.25)d

0 = 16 - 2.5d

2.5d = 16

d = 16/2.5

d = 6.4 m

Time to travel the given distance;

d = ut + ¹/₂at²

6.4 = (4)t + ¹/₂(-1.25)t²

6.4 = 4t - 0.625t²

0.625t² - 4t + 6.4 = 0

solve the quadratic equation using formula method;

t = 3.2 s

The time travel the distance two times, = 2 x 3.2 s = 6.4 s

<h3>Time taken for the turtle to travel 30 cm</h3>

d = ut + ¹/₂at²

0.3 = (4)t + ¹/₂(-1.25)t²

0.3 = 4t - 0.625t²

0.625t² - 4t + 0.3 = 0

solve the quadratic equation using formula method;

t = 0.08 s
