1. What is work done in holding a 15kg suitcase while waiting for a bus for 15 minutes?

Physics

Work is (force applied) x (distance through which the force moves).

Since the suitcase doesn't move up or down during the 15 minutes,
no work is done ... zero, zip, nada ... according to the real Physics
definition of 'work'.

A 440-g cylinder of brass is heated to 97.0 degree Celsius and placed in a 2 points
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Specific heat of brass is 0.40 J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹ .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of brass, m₁ = 440 g

Temperature of brass, T₁ = 97° C

Mass of water, m₂ = 350 g

Temperature of water, T₂ = 23° C

Specific heat of water, C₂ = 4.18 J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹

Equilibrium temperature, T = 31° C

Let C₁ be the specific heat of brass.

Heat loss by brass = Heat gain by water

m₁ x C₁ x ( T₁ -T ) = m₂ x C₂ x ( T - T₁ )

Substitute the suitable values in above equation.

440 x C₁ x (97 - 31) = 350 x 4.18 x (31 - 23)

C₁ = \frac{11704}{29040}

C₁ = 0.40 J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹

Question 11 (1 point)
Ainat [17]

Answer:

gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth surface.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

G.P.E = mgh

Where,

G.P.E represents gravitational potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

This ultimately implies that, anytime there is height, the object must have gravitational potential energy.

Hence, an object possesses gravitational potential energy due to its height (position) and the earth's gravitational force.

A 4.0-kg object is supported by an aluminum wire of length 2.0 m and diameter 2.0 mm. How much will the wire stretch?
forsale [732]

Answer:

The extension of the wire is 0.362 mm.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the object, m = 4.0 kg

length of the aluminum wire, L = 2.0 m

diameter of the wire, d = 2.0 mm

radius of the wire, r = d/2 = 1.0 mm = 0.001 m

The area of the wire is given by;

A = πr²

A = π(0.001)² = 3.142 x 10⁻⁶ m²

The downward force of the object on the wire is given by;

F = mg

F = 4 x 9.8 = 39.2 N

The Young's modulus of aluminum is given by;

Y = \frac{stress}{strain}\\\\Y = \frac{F/A}{e/L}\\\\Y = \frac{FL}{Ae} \\\\e = \frac{FL}{AY}

Where;

Young's modulus of elasticity of aluminum = 69 x 10⁹ N/m²

e = \frac{FL}{AY} \\\\e = \frac{(39.2)(2)}{(3.142*10^{-6})(69*10^9)} \\\\e = 0.000362 \ m\\\\e = 0.362 \ mm

Therefore, the extension of the wire is 0.362 mm.
