Answer: d. 20000 J

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy possessed by an object by virtue of its position.

P.E=m\times g\times h

m= mass of object = 200 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10ms^{-2}

h = height of an object

1. when h= 10 m

P.E=200\times 10ms^{-2}\times 10m=20000Joules

2. when h= 0 m

P.E=200\times 10ms^{-2}\times 0m=0Joules

Thus change in energy=(20000-0)Joules=20000Joules.

if a metal object was cut on half how much heat will be required to raise both half to a specific temperature
il63 [147K]

suppose the mass of a metal object be m and its specific heat capacity be s, and, H joules of heat is required to raise its temperature by t degrees Celsius

Than H is given by relation, H = mst

Now if this object is cut in two half's, than mass of half part will also be half <em>i.e. </em>M/2

So heat required to heat the half part will be = (\frac{m}{2}) st =\frac{mst}{2} = H/2  

Hence, the heat required to raise the half object to a specific temperature will also become half.

Can the validity of a model be limited, or must it be universally valid? How does this compare to the required validity of a the
Vilka [71]

The model is based on hypothesis  to get an initial idea for analyzing a complex problem. Hence, the validity of a model is limited and may not be valid universally. On the other hand, theories and laws are confirmed hypothesis which are universally valid. These are formulated after repeated testings. theories are more explanatory.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

the DISTANCE between the lever arm and the force is always 90º

Explanation:

In this exercise, you are asked to complete the missing words so that the phrase makes sense.

note that the torque is

              τ = F x r

where bold indicates vectors

When the rope is pulled, the DISTANCE between the lever arm and the force is always 90º

For a particular reaction, the change in enthalpy is 51kJmole and the activation energy is 109kJmole. Which of the following cou
Ronch [10]

Answer

given,

change in enthalpy = 51 kJ/mole

change in activation energy = 109 kJ/mole

when a reaction is catalysed change in enthalpy between the product and the reactant does not change it remain constant.

where as activation energy of the product and the reactant decreases.

example:

ΔH = 51 kJ/mole

E_a= 83 kJ/mole

here activation energy decrease whereas change in enthalpy remains same.
