An example of a high specific heat is water’s specific heat, which requires 4.184 joules of heat to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius. Scientifically, water’s specific heat is written as: 1 calorie/gm °C = 4.186 J/gm °C.
Answer:
The net friction force is 8.01 N
Explanation:
Net friction force = mass of hockey puck × acceleration
From the equations of motion
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
v = 40 m/s
u = 0 m/s (puck was initially at rest)
s = 30 m
40^2 = 0^2 + 2×a×30
60a = 1600
a = 1600/60 = 26.7 m/s^2
The acceleration of the puck is 26.7 m/s^2
Net friction force = 0.3 × 26.7 = 8.01 N
Answer:
v = 10 m/s
Explanation:
Let's assume the wheel does not slip as it accelerates.
Energy theory is more straightforward than kinematics in my opinion.
Work done on the wheel
W = Fd = 45(12) = 540 J
Some is converted to potential energy
PE = mgh = 4(9.8)12sin30 = 235.2 J
As there is no friction mentioned, the remainder is kinetic energy
KE = 540 - 235.2 = 304.8 J
KE = ½mv² + ½Iω²
ω = v/R
KE = ½mv² + ½I(v/R)² = ½(m + I/R²)v²
v = √(2KE / (m + I/R²))
v = √(2(304.8) / (4 + 0.5/0.5²)) = √101.6
v = 10.07968...
