The increase in temperature of the metal hammer is 0.028 ⁰C.

The given parameters:

  • <em>mass of the metal hammer, m = 1.0 kg</em>
  • <em>speed of the hammer, v = 5.0 m/s</em>
  • <em>specific heat capacity of iron, 450 J/kg⁰C</em>

The increase in temperature of the metal hammer is calculated as follows;

Q = K.E\\\\mc \Delta T = \frac{1}{2}  mv^2\\\\\Delta T = \frac{v^2}{2 c}

where;

<em>c is the </em><em>specific heat capacity</em><em> of the metal hammer</em>

<em />

Assuming the metal hammer is iron, c = 450 J/kg⁰C

\Delta T = \frac{5^2}{2 \times 450} \\\\\Delta T = 0.028 \ ^0C

Thus, the increase in temperature of the metal hammer is 0.028 ⁰C.

A robot is exploring​ charon, the dwarf planet​ pluto's largest moon. Gravity on charon is 0.278 meters per second ​[m divided b
DochEvi [55]

In order to find the efficiency first we will find the Change in Potential energy of the small stone that robot picked up

First we will find the mass of the stone

As it is given that stone is spherical in shape so first we will find its volume

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi *(\frac{0.06}{2})^3

V = 1.13 * 10^{-4} m^3

Now it is given that it's specific gravity is 10.8

So density of rock is

\rho = 10.8 * 10^3 kg/m^3

mass of the stone will be

m = \rho V

m = 10.8* 10^3 * 1.13 * 10^{-4}

m = 1.22 kg

now change in potential energy is given as

\Delta U = mgH

here

g = gravity on planet = 0.278 m/s^2

H = height lifted upwards = 15 cm

\Delta U = 1.22* 0.278 * 0.15

\Delta U = 0.051 J

Now energy supplied by internal circuit of robot is given by

E = Vit

V = voltage supplied = 10 V

i = current = 1.83 mA

t = time = 12 s

E = 10* 1.83 * 10^{-3} * 12

E = 0.22 J

Now efficiency is defined as the ratio of output work with given amount of energy used

\eta = \frac{\Delta U}{E}*100

\eta = \frac{0.051}{0.22} = 0.23

so efficiency will be 23 %

Newton's law of gravity was inconsistent with Einstein's special relativity because
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Mass and thus force depends on the reference frame chosen

Explanation:

This can be explained as Newton's law of gravity provides action which are instantaneous at a distance and involves the evaluation of all the quantities at present time or at the instant they occur.

If the body undergoes a change in its mass distribution there will be an immediate change in its gravitational force without any lag.

Now, if we talk about special relativity, it would be absurd to say that an information can travel faster than light. The effect is in synchronization with the cause in one reference frame where the effect occurs after the cause for some observer in some other reference frame.

In order to observe Newton's law of gravity all the observer's in different reference frames must observe the same phenomena which could only be possible if time were absolute and in special relativity, time is not absolute.

Therefore, Newton's law of gravity was inconsistent with the Einstein's Special Relativity.

Why can’t solids flow
Annette [7]

Answer:

basically they have too much mass in them

Explanation:

They are held tightly together by strong forces of attraction. They are held in fixed positions but they do vibrate. Because the particles don't move, solids have a definite shape and volume, and can't flow. Because the particles are already packed closely together, solids can't easily be compressed.

Which of these are terrestrial planets? Select all that apply.
Strike441 [17]
The answers to the question above would be letters a, b, c, and d. The terrestrial planets are those that are close to the sun, namely, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. The others are known as the gas giants since they have a thick atmosphere and are considerably cold.
