Answer:

7.5m/s

Explanation:

Force= mass × velocity

Energy is conserved, the car and van should have the same overall force.

1500kg × 30m/s= 6000kg × final velocity

Final velocity = 7.5m/s

A material you are testing conducts electricity but cannot be pulled into wires. It is most likely a _____.

notsponge [240]

Answer: The correct answer is "metalloid".

Explanation:

Metal is the material which can conduct electricity as it contains free electrons. It is good conductor of electricity. For example, copper, silver.

Metal can be drawn into wires. This property of material is called ductile.

Metal can be beaten into sheets. This property of material is called malleable.

Non metal is the material which cannot conduct electricity as it does not contain free electrons. They are poor conductor of electricity. For example, oxygen.

Metalloid: It has properties of both metals and non metal. It is electrical conductor. For example, semiconductor- silicon and germanium. But they cannot be pulled into wires.

Therefore, a material you are testing conducts electricity but cannot be pulled into wires. It is most likely a metalloid.

A protein molecule in an electrophoresis gel has a negative charge.The exact charge depends on the pH of the solution, but 30 ex

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric force on a protein with this charge is $7.2\times10^{-15}\ N$

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 1500 N/C

Charge = 30 e

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric force on a protein with this charge

Using formula of electrostatic force

$F=Eq$

Where, F = force

E = electric field

q = charge

Put the value into the formula

$F=1500\times30\times1.6\times10^{-19}$

$F=7.2\times10^{-15}\ N$

Hence, The magnitude of the electric force on a protein with this charge is $7.2\times10^{-15}\ N$

What quantity of heat is needed to convert 1 kg of ice at -13 degrees C to steam at 100 degrees C?

Effectus [21]

Answer:

Heat energy needed = 3036.17 kJ

Explanation:

We have

heat of fusion of water = 334 J/g

heat of vaporization of water = 2257 J/g

specific heat of ice = 2.09 J/g·°C

specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g·°C

specific heat of steam = 2.09 J/g·°C

Here wee need to convert 1 kg ice from -13°C to vapor at 100°C

First the ice changes to -13°C from 0°C , then it changes to water, then its temperature increases from 0°C to 100°C, then it changes to steam.

Mass of water = 1000 g

Heat energy required to change ice temperature from -13°C to 0°C

H₁ = mcΔT = 1000 x 2.09 x 13 = 27.17 kJ

Heat energy required to change ice from 0°C to water at 0°C

H₂ = mL = 1000 x 334 = 334 kJ

Heat energy required to change water temperature from 0°C to 100°C

H₃ = mcΔT = 1000 x 4.18 x 100 = 418 kJ

Heat energy required to change water from 100°C to steam at 100°C

H₄ = mL = 1000 x 2257 = 2257 kJ

Total heat energy required

H = H₁ + H₂ + H₃ + H₄ = 27.17 + 334 + 418 +2257 = 3036.17 kJ

Heat energy needed = 3036.17 kJ
