Answer:

Car radiators: Water is used as coolant car radiators. Due to its high specific heat capacity, it can absorb a large amount of heat energy from the engine of the car, but its temperature does not rise too high.

Answer:

Water has a high specific heat, meaning it takes more energy to increase the temperature of water compared to other substances. This is why water is valuable to industries and in your car's radiator as a coolant.

We get hurt when we kick a brick however we can displace it easily without pain when it is pushed gently, why?

You’re using more force to kick the brick than to push it gently.

A barefoot field-goal kicker imparts a speed of 54 m/s to a football initially at rest. If the football has a mass of 0.55 kg an

Answer:

Force, F = 900 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the football, m = 0.55 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 0

Final speed, v = 54 m/s

Time of contact, t = 0.033 s

We need to find the magnitude of the force exerted by the ball on the kicker’s foot. It is a case of second law of motion. It is equal to the rate of change of momentum. So,

$F=\dfrac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{mv}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.55\times 54}{0.033 }\\\\F=900\ N$
