Answer:

Heat energy required = 252000J or 252KJ.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 3kg

Temperature = 20ºC

Specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/kg°C

To find the heat energy required;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mct

Where;

  • Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
  • m represents the mass of an object.
  • c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
  • t represents the temperature.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Q = 3*4200*20

Q = 252000 Joules or 252 Kilojoules.

What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 113m in 29s?
Elza [17]
In this item, we are asked to determine the speed of the bobsled given the distance traveled and the time it takes to cover the certain distance. This can mathematically be expressed as,
                          speed = distance / time

Substituting the given values in this item,
                         speed = (113 m) / (29 s)
                         speed = 3.90 m/s

<em>ANSWER: 3.90 m/s</em>
