Answer:

This will require 266.9 of heat energy.

Explanation:

To calculate the energy required to raise the temperature of any given substance, here's what you require:The mass of the material, m The temperature change that occurs, ΔT The specific heat capacity of the material,

(which you can look up). This is the amount of heat required to raise 1 gram of that substance by 1°C.

Here is a source of values of

c for different substances:

Once you have all that, this is the equation:

Q=m×c×ΔT(Q is usually used to symbolize that heat required in a case like this.)For water, the value of c is 4.186g°C So, Q=750×4.186×85=266=858=266.858

While standing at the edge of the roof of a building, you throw a stone upward with an initial speed of 5.65 m/s. The stone subs

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

1. 20.54m/s

2. 1.52s

Explanation:

QUESTION 1:

The speed the stone impact the ground is the final speed/velocity, which can be calculated using the formula:

v² = u² + 2as

Where;

v = final velocity (m/s)

u = initial velocity (m/s)

a = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)

s = distance (m)

From the provided information, u = 5.65m/s, v = ?, s = 19.9m, a = 9.8m/s²

v² = 5.65² + 2 (9.8 × 19.9)

v² = 31.9225 + 2 (195.02)

v² = 31.9225 + 390.04

v² = 421.9625

v = √421.9625

v = 20.5417

v = 20.54m/s

QUESTION 2:

Using v = u + at

Where v = final velocity (m/s) = 20.54m/s

t = time (s)

u = initial velocity (m/s) = 5.65m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)

v = u + at

20.54 = 5.65 + 9.8t

20.54 - 5.65 = 9.8t

14.89 = 9.8t

t = 14.89/9.8

t = 1.519

t = 1.52s

A certain plucked string produces a fundamental frequency of 150 hz. Which frequency is not one of the harmonics produced by tha

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Some of the frequency that cannot be produced by the string includes 400Hz, 500Hz 650Hz etc...

Explanation:

Harmonics in strings are defined as the integral multiples of its fundamental frequency. This multiples are in arithmetic progression.

For example if Fo is the fundamental frequency of the string, the harmonics will be 2fo, 3fo, 4fo, 5fo... etc

If the string produces a fundamental frequency of 150Hz, some of the harmonics produced by the string will be 300Hz, 450Hz, 600Hz, 750Hz... etc

Some of the harmonics that cannot be produced include 400Hz, 500Hz 650Hz etc...

Weathering of rocks can occur in many ways. In the western United States, strong winds can erode huge rock formations by blowing

stepan [7]

Answer: physical or mechanical weathering

Explanation:

Mechanical weathering which is also referred to as the physical weathering occurs when a rock is broken down into smaller pieces. In this case, there will be a physical change of the rock but its composition will not change.

Some examples include ice freezing and expansion of the cracks in the rock, Smstrong winds that carrycpieces of sand which then sandblast surfaces, moving water which causes abrasion etc.

mart [117]

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion says that an object will be at rest or it will be in motion until an unbalanced force acts on it.
In this case, a car traveling at a constant velocity of 55 mph to the west in the absence of an unbalanced force.

It would mean that the car will continue to move with a constant velocity of 55 mph to the west due to Newton's first law of motion.

The gravitational attraction between two masses of 3kg that are separated by a distance of 1cm is

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

6.003×10¯⁶ N

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 1 cm to m. This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

1 cm = 1 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

1 cm = 0.01 m

Finally, we shall determine the gravitational attraction. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass 1 (M₁) = 3 Kg

Mass 2 (M₂) = 3 Kg

Distance apart (r) = 0.01 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Force of attraction (F) =?

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 3 × / 0.01²

F = 6.003×10¯¹⁰ / 1×10¯⁴

F = 6.003×10¯⁶ N

Thus the gravitational attraction is 6.003×10¯⁶ N
