Answer:

Heat capacity is the ratio of the amount of heat energy transferred to an object to the resulting increase in its temperature. Molar heat capacity is a measure of the amount of heat necessary to raise the temperature of one mole of a pure substance by one degree K.

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg

Explanation:

Hi there!

Due to conservation of energy, the potential energy (PE) of the mass at a height of 3.32 m will be transformed into elastic potential energy (EPE) when it falls on the mattress:

PE = EPE

m · g · h = 1/2 k · x²

Where:

m = mass.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

h = height.

k = spring constant.

x = compression distance

The maximum compression distance is 0.1289 m, then, the maximum elastic potential energy will be the following:

EPE =1/2 k · x²

EPE = 1/2 · 65144 N/m · (0.1289 m)² = 541.2 J

Then, using the equation of gravitational potential energy:

PE = m · g · h =  541.2 J

m =  541.2 J/ g · h

m = 541.2 kg · m²/s² / (9.8 m/s² · 3.32 m)

m = 16.6 kg

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg.

A wire carrying a current of 26.9 A is bent into a circular arc with a radius of 0.6 cm that sweeps out 0.900 radians. What is t
melomori [17]

The magnetic field at the center of the arc is 4 × 10^(-4) T.

To find the answer, we need to know about the magnetic field due to a circular arc.

<h3>What's the mathematical expression of magnetic field at the center of a circular arc?</h3>
  • According to Biot savert's law, magnetic field at the center of a circular arc is
  • B=(μ₀ I/4π)× (arc/radius²)
  • As arc is given as angle × radius, so

        B=( μ₀I/4π)×(angle/radius)

<h3>What will be the magnetic field at the center of a circular arc, if the arc has current 26.9 A, radius 0.6 cm and angle 0.9 radian?</h3>

B=(μ₀ I/4π)× (0.9/0.006)

  = (10^(-7)× 26.9)× (0.9/0.006)

  = 4 × 10^(-4) T

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of magnetic field at the center of the circular arc is 4 × 10^(-4) T.

A 65 kg person jumps from a window to a fire net 18 m below, which stretches the net 1.1 m. Assume the net behaves as a simple s
posledela

Answer:

0.03167 m

1.52 m

Explanation:

x = Compression of net

h = Height of jump

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

The potential energy and the kinetic energy of the system is conserved

P_i=P_f+K_s\\\Rightarrow mgh_i=-mgx+\frac{1}{2}kx^2\\\Rightarrow k=2mg\frac{h_i+x}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow k=2\times 65\times 9.81\frac{18+1.1}{1.1^2}\\\Rightarrow k=20130.76\ N/m

The spring constant of the net is 20130.76 N

From Hooke's Law

F=kx\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{F}{k}\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{65\times 9.81}{20130.76}\\\Rightarrow x=0.03167\ m

The net would strech 0.03167 m

If h = 35 m

From energy conservation

65\times 9.81\times (35+x)=\frac{1}{2}20130.76x^2\\\Rightarrow 10065.38x^2=637.65(35+x)\\\Rightarrow 35+x=15.785x^2\\\Rightarrow 15.785x^2-x-35=0\\\Rightarrow x^2-\frac{200x}{3157}-\frac{1000}{451}=0

Solving the above equation we get

x=\frac{-\left(-\frac{200}{3157}\right)+\sqrt{\left(-\frac{200}{3157}\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\left(-\frac{1000}{451}\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}, \frac{-\left(-\frac{200}{3157}\right)-\sqrt{\left(-\frac{200}{3157}\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\left(-\frac{1000}{451}\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}\\\Rightarrow x=1.52, -1.45

The compression of the net is 1.52 m
