The total yearly world consumption of energy is approximately 4.0 × 1020 J. How much mass would have to be completely converted

into energy to provide this amount of energy?

Answer:

m = 4.4 × 10³ kg

Explanation:

Given that:

The total yearly energy is 4.0 × 10²⁰ J

The amount of mass that provides this energy can be determined by using the formula:

E = mc²

where;

c = speed of light in free space = (3 × 10⁸)

4.0 × 10²⁰ = m × (3 × 10⁸)²

m = \dfrac{4.0 \times 10^{20} }{(3\times 10^8)^2}

m = 4.4 × 10³ kg

Are the statements of the Flat Earth Society an example of science or pseudoscience?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Pseudoscience

Explanation:

Pseudoscience is defined as set of ideas that present themselves as a science, but they do not fulfill the criteria to be called science. In the same way, in the middle of 20th century some people called earth is flat. They challenged the spherical shape of earth. But their hypothesis does not fulfill the criteria of science. Therefore, the statements of flat earth society are pseudoscience.

A 10 g bullet moving horizontally with a speed of 2000 m/s strikes and passes through a 4.0 kg block moving with a speed of 4.2
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The answer is "512 J".

Explanation:

bullet mass m_1 = 10 g= 10^{-2} \ kg\\\\

initial speed u_1 = 2\ \frac{Km}{s}= 2000\ \frac{m}{s}\\\\

block mass m_2 = 4\ Kg

initial speed v_2 =-4.2 \frac{m}{s}

final speed v_2= 0

Let v_1 will be the bullet speed after collision:

throughout the consevation the linear moemuntum

\to M_1V_1+m_2v_2=M_1U_1+m_2u_2\\\\\to (10^{-2} kg) V_1 +0 = (10^{-2} kg)(2000 \frac{m}{s}) + (4 \ kg)(-4.2 \frac{m}{s}) \\\\\ \to 10^{-2} v_1 = 20 -16.8\\\\

                = 320 \frac{m}{s}

The kinetic energy of the bullet in its emerges from the block

k=\frac{1}{2} m_1 v_1^2

   =\frac{1}{2} \times 10^{-2} \times 320\\\\=512 \ J

Problem 2: (15 pts) A 10-m high cylindrical container is half-filled at the bottom with water of density =1000 kg/m3 while the t
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

\Delta p = 90.7 kPa

Explanation:

specific gravity of oil is = \frac{\rho_{oil}}{\rho_w}

\rho_{oil} = 0.85*1000 = 850 kg/m3

we know that

change in pressure  for oil is given as

\Delta p = \rho gh

here density and h is for oil

\Delta p = 850*5 *9.81 = 41,692.5 kPa

change in pressure  for WATER is given as

\Delta p = \rho gh

here density is for water and h is for water

\Delta p = 1000*5 *9.81 = 49,050 kPa

pressure change due to both is given as

\Delta p = 41692.3 + 49050 = 90742.5 N/m2

\Delta p = 90.7 kPa

If Juan upgrades from a sports car to a large truck, what will happen to the
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The force must increase

Explanation:

According to newton's second law "force is the product of mass and acceleration".

      Force  = mass  x acceleration

Now, the mass of the sports car is lesser compared to that of the truck. Therefore, to take both automobiles to the same speed, enough force must be applied by the engine of the truck.

There must be an increase in the force in order to make both automobiles attain the same speed.
