Answer:

1.1x10^-2N

Explanation:

We have the change in momentum as

P = 0.3(4.5+12)g.mph

= 0.3x0.447x(4.5+12)x10^-3

Then the force that is exerted will be

F = p/∆t

∆t = 0.2

= 0.3x0.447x(4.5+12)x10^-3/0.2

= 0.1341x16.5x10^-3/0.2

= 1.1x10^-2

Therefore the force that was exerted is equal to 1.1x10^-2

How much heat is absorbed by a 75g iron skillet when it’s temperature rises from 5c to 20c?
alexira [117]

Answer: Q=499.5 J  

Explanation:

The heat (thermal energy) absorbed by the iron skillet can be found using the following equation:

Q=m.C.\Delta T   (1)

Where:

Q is the heat  (absorbed)

m=75 g is the mass of the element (iron in this case)

C is the specific heat capacity of the material. In the case of iron is C=0.444\frac{J}{g\°C}

\Delta T=T_{f}-T_{i}=20\°C - 5\°C= 15\°C is the variation in temperature

Knowing this, lets rewrite (1) with these values:

Q=(75 g)(0.444\frac{J}{g\°C})(15\°C)  (2)

Finally:

Q=499.5 J

Discuss the difference between waveform graphs and vibration graphs​
Kitty [74]

Difference exists mainly in the label for x axis.

Explanation:

  • Shapes of waveform and vibration graphs are same.
  • Vibration graphs shows the particle at a single location in the path of the wave when time passes.
  • Waveform graphs shows the particle at multiple locations at a single moment of time.

There's an electric field in some region of space that doesn't change with position. An electron starts moving with a speed of 2
tangare [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

speed of Electron u=2\times 10^7\ m/s

final speed of Electron v=4\times 10^7\ m/s

distance traveled d=1.2\ cm

using equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as

where v=Final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

(4\times 10^7)^2-(2\times 10^7)^2=2\times a\times 1.2\times 10^{-2}

a=5\times 10^{16}\ m/s^2

acceleration is given by a=\frac{qE}{m}

where q=charge of electron

m=mass of electron

E=electric Field strength

5\times 10^{16}=\frac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\cdot E}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

E=248.3\ kN/C
