Answer:

A.C. Generator

Explanation:

The device designed to convert chemical energy into kinetic energy is an A.C generator.

The generator uses fuel to cause the mechanical motion of the pistons in the device.

Chemical energy is a form of energy found between the bonds of compounds and molecules.
When the bonds are broken, energy is released.
The heat energy produced drives pistons and cause mechanical motion of the body.
This is a form of kinetic energy which causes the motion of a body.

An insulated Thermos contains 140 cm3 of hot coffee at 85.0°C. You put in a 15.0 g ice cube at its melting point to cool the cof

Pavel [41]

Answer:

$T = 69^o C$

Explanation:

Here at thermal equilibrium we can say that thermal energy given by Hot coffee is equal to the thermal energy absorbed by ice cubes

So here we have

$Q_{ice} = Q_{coffee}$

now since ice cubes are added into coffee when it is at melting temperature

So here we can say that final temperature of coffee is T degree C

Now we have

$m_1L + m_1c_1\Delta T_1 = m_2c_2\Delta T_2$

here we have

$m_1 = 15 gram$

L = 333 kJ/kg = 333 J/g[/tex]

$c_1 = c_2 = 4186 J/kg C = 4.186 J/g C$

$\Delta T_1 = T - 0$

$\Delta T_2 = 85 - T$

now we have

$15(333) + 15(4.186)(T - 0) = 140(4.186)(85 - T)$

$4995 + 62.79T = 49813.4 - 586.04T$

$648.83 T = 44818.4$

$T = 69^o C$

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. Complete the following statemen

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4

Explanation:

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. The centripetal acceleration is given by :

$a=\dfrac{v^2}{R}$

We need to find how the "centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4"

It can be done by keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4 such that,

R' = R/4

New centripetal acceleration will be,

$a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R'}$

$a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R/4}$

$a'=4\times \dfrac{v^2}{R}$

$a'=4\times a$

So, the centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4.

A soccer ball is kicked horizontally off a bridge with a heigh of 36m. The ball travels 25m horizontally before it hits the pave

kow [346]

Answer:

The initial velocity was U=22.14m/s

Explanation:

Step one :

Applying the third equation of motion

v² = u²+ 2as

Where v= Final velocity

U =initial velocity

a= acceleration due to gravity

S= distance or displacement

Step two :

V= 0

a= 9.81m/s²

S=25m

U=?

Step three :

Substituting into the equation we have

0²=U²+2*9.81*25

0=U²+490.5

U²=-490.5

U=√490.5

U=22.14m/s
