This problem is asking for the required heat to change the temperature of 500 g of water by 50 °C. At the end, the result turns out to be 25,000 cal as shown below:
<h3>Calorimetry</h3>
In science, calorimetry is the process whereby objects lose or gain energy according to the decrease or increase of their temperature. Thus, for these problems, we need to use the following equation:
Where Q stands for the heat, m for the mass, C for the specific heat of the object and T for the temperature (final and initial). Thus, for this problem, since it is about water, one fixes its specific heat as 1 cal /(g-°C) in order to obtain the following:

A prominence is a loop of cool incandescent gas that extends above the photosphere. A solar flare is an explosive release of energy that comes from the sun and causes magnetic ditrubances.
Answer:
a. 150 N
Explanation:
Gravitational Force: This is the force that act on a body under gravity.
The gravitational force always attract every object on or near the earth's surface. The earth therefore, exerts an attractive force on every object on or near it.
The S.I unit of gravitational force is Newton(N).
Mathematically, gravitational force of attraction is expressed as
(i) F = GmM/r² ........................ Equation 1 ( when it involves two object of different masses on the earth)
(ii) F = mg ............................... Equation 2 ( when it involves one mass and the gravitational field).
Given: m = 17 kg, g = 8.8 m/s²
Substituting into equation 2,
F = 17(8.8)
F = 149.6 N
F ≈ 150 N.
Thus the gravitational force = 150 N
The correct option is a. 150 N
Answer:
Since velocity is a vector quantity there is no net displacement and the average velocity is zero
(A) is correct
I’ll refer to electromagnetic radiation as EMR.
Visible light is a very small subset of EMR. Many other ranges like infrared, ultraviolet, or gamma must be detected by special equipment.
EMR is what makes up light, and as we know from any high school physics class, light exhibits both particle-like properties (photoelectric effect and Compton scattering) and wave-like properties (refraction, diffraction, double-slit & single-slit experiment).
EMR can travel without a medium, like the vast emptiness of space. It can also travel with a medium. It can transmit through various materials albeit at a slower speed, like water, earth’s atmosphere, glass etc.
The propagation speed of EMR in space is 3x10^8 m/s, which is a speed unattainable by any of our current means of transportation. I would say that’s quite fast.
