Explanation:
When,the vehicle has uniform velocity, it's acceleration becomes zero
Answer:
66.5N
Explanation:
F = kx
Where F = force
K = spring constant
x = compression
Given
K = 950N/m
x = 7.0cm
F = ?
First convert the compression to meters .
7.0cm = 7.0 x 0.01
= 0.07 meters
Therefore
F = 950 x 0.07
= 66.5N
Answer:
Height above a surface
Explanation:
Gravitational potential energy is the energy which an object possesses due to its position above a surface.
It is also the amount of work a force has to do in order to bring an object from a particular position to a point of reference.
It is given mathematically as:
P. E. = m*g*h
where m = mass of the body
g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height above a surface
m*g represents the weight of the object.
Hence, Gravitational potential energy is the product of an object's weight and its height above a surface/reference point.
Answer:
Heat capacity, Q = 2090 Joules.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 100 grams
Specific heat capacity = 4.18 J/g°C.
Temperature = 5°C
To find the quantity of heat required;
Heat capacity is given by the formula;
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 of an object.
Substituting into the formula, we have;
Heat capacity, Q = 2090 Joules.
The first law, which deals with changes in the internal energy, thus becomes 0 = Q - W, so Q = W.
If the system does work, the energy comes from heat flowing into the system from the reservoir; if work is done on the system, heat flows out of the system to the reservoir
