Answer:

(a) 4.75 m/s²  (b) 7.6 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a lab cart, m = 1.6 kg

Initial speed, u = 0.5 m/s

Final speed, v = 4.3 m/s

Time, t = 0.8 s

(a) The acceleration of an object is equal to the rate of change of velocity. It can be calculated as :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{4.3-0.5}{0.8}\\\\a=4.75\ m/s^2

(b) Let F be the net force on the cart. It can be given by :

F = ma

F=1.6\times 4.75\\\\F=7.6\ N

Hence, this is the required solution.

A metal ball of mass 100 g is heated to 90°C and then cooled to 25°C. The heat lost in the process is 2.5 kJ. Another metal ball
kobusy [5.1K]

Explanation:

q = mCΔT

where q is heat,

m is mass,

C is specific heat capacity,

and ΔT is temperature change.

For the first ball:

2500 J = (100 g) C (90°C − 25°C)

C = 0.385 J/g/°C

For the second ball:

5000 J = (200 g) C (90°C − 25°C)

C = 0.385 J/g/°C

The two metals have the same specific heat, and are likely the same metal (possibly copper or zinc).

How do solar panels create electricity
xenn [34]

Answer:

They create electricity from the sun's  rays

Explanation:

By the use of "solar cells" or "solar panel", you can trap solar energy in silicon/germanium rods, then you can convert in into electricity too. Solar powered panels convert the sun's rays into electricity by exciting electrons in silicon cells using the photons of light from the sun. This electricity can then be used to supply renewable energy to your home or business.

A foot player runs 1.6m/s and has a KE of 790 J. What is his mass?
Mariana [72]
The equation for kinetic energy is,

Ke = (1/2)mv^2.

You're given a kinetic energy of 790 joules, and a speed of 1.6 m/s. Plugging these values into the equation, we get,

790 = (1/2)(1.6)^2(m).

Solving for m, we get,

m = (790)/(0.5(1.6)^2).

I'll let you crunch out those numbers for yourself :D

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Hope this helps!
