A iron block with a mass of 4.8 kg initially slides over a rough horizontal surface with a speed of 1.2 m/s. Friction slows the

block to rest. While slowing to rest, 85.0% of the kinetic energy of the block is absorbed by the block itself as internal energy. What is the temperature increase of the block

Answer:

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of block will be converted into heat energy by friction .

Heat energy produced = 1/2 m v²

= .5 x 4.8 x 1.2²

= 3.456 J

85% of energy is converted into heat energy , so heat energy produced

= .85 x 3.456 = 2.9376 J .

If Q heat is given to m mass of object having s as specific heat and Δt is increase in temperature

Q = msΔt

specific heat of iron s = 462 J / kg C

Putting the values ,

2.9376 = 4.8 x 462 x Δt

Δt = 13.24 x 10⁻⁴ ⁰C.

Assign a positive velocity to the red box and negative velocity to the blue box. Are they moving in opposite direction?
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

<em>Yes, they are moving in opposite direction one to the other.</em>

Explanation:

Velocity is a vector quantity, which means that it has both magnitude and direction. The magnitude shows the size of the velocity, and the direction shows which way it is moving in reference to a chosen reference direction. If the red box is assigned a positive velocity, and the blue box is assigned a negative velocity, as indicated in the question, then it means that the red box, and the blue box, both move in opposite direction to the other.

PLEASE HELP THIS IS DUE LIKE HELP ME PLEASE

Answer:

At the end points of motion (either side) the velocity must be zero because the velocity is changing from - to + (it can't turn around around without passing thru zero,

The velocity will then increase to the midpoint of the motion.

m g h = 1/2 m v^2    where h is the vertical distance thru which the pendulum travels

Mr. Galonski loves to use the Electromagnetic Spectrum. Create a scenario in which Mr. Galonski is using waves from the electrom
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The Scenario:

On a normal Sunday afternoon Mr. Golanski is sitting in his living room reading his book. He decides after a while to turn on the Television to see what’s on the news, (Mr. Golanski is using Radio waves when he turns his television on by signaling the TV from his remote control). After a few hours Mr. Golanski decides it’s time to have dinner. He heats up a quick meal in his microwave because he doesn’t have the patience for cooking. (He is using microwave radiation to heat his food because water molecules in food absorb the radiation). He sits down for his meal, and halfway through he starts to choke! In a panicked frenzy he runs to his bathroom to try and dislodge the obstacle from his throat. By doing so he switched on the fluorescent lights in his bathroom exposing himself to small amounts of ultraviolet radiation. (Fluorescent lights absorb UV radiation and transmit visible light along with small amounts of UV light). Unable to dislodge the obstacle from his throat Mr. Golanski seeks help from his neighbor who drives him straight to the ER. To treat him properly the physicians opt for a fluoroscopy to examine Mr. Golanski’s esophageal tract. (Thus he is making use of X-ray imaging to obtain a visual of his internal esophageal structure to check for the obstruction). Once treated and discharged from the hospital Mr. Golanski returns home grateful to have survived this ordeal with minimum damage.

Explanation:

The Electromagnetic Spectrum is the range of frequencies and wavelengths for different light waves. They range with increasing frequency from Radio waves, to Microwaves, to Infrared waves, to Visible waves, to Ultraviolet waves, to Infrared waves, to X-rays, and to Gamma rays. Several of which we use in our daily lives such as Radio waves when operating our television or using our cellular phones. We also use microwaves to heat our food or for communication with satellites. We are also exposed to natural Ultraviolet radiation from the sun; however, we can also get exposed to other forms such as from certain types of light bulbs. We see visible light in the form of all the colors we can detect around us. We make use of x-rays for imaging techniques widely used in medicine for diagnostics, as well as Infrared waves in our home security systems. The electromagnetic spectrum is always used as a part of our everyday life.
