Answer:

Aluminium

Explanation:

When a certain amount of heat is supplied to a substance, the temperature of the substance increases according to the equation:

\Delta T = \frac{Q}{mC}

where

\Delta T is the increase in temperature

Q is the amount of heat supplied to the substance

m is the mass of the substance

C is the specific heat capacity of the substance

Here the four substances have the same mass,

m = 50.0 g

Also, the amount of heat supplied to the 4 substances is the same. This means that their increase in temperature is inversely proportional to their specific heat capacity:

\Delta T \propto \frac{1}{C}

Therefore, the substance with the highest specific heat capacity will have the smallest temperature increase: by comparing the values in the table, we see that alluminium has the highest specific heat capacity (0.90 J/gC), therefore it will have the smallest temperature increase.

A man pushes an 250-N crate at constant speed a distance of 30.0 m upward along a rough slope that makes an angle of 60° with th
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

6495.19 Joule

Explanation:

F = Weight of the crate = 250 N

d = Distance the cart is pushed = 30 m

θ = Angle of inclination = 60°

The weight of the crate will be resloved into two components

Fdsinθ and Fdcosθ

Work done by the force of gravity is

W = Fdsinθ

⇒W = 250×30×sin60

⇒W = 6495.19 Joule

∴ The work done by the force of gravity is 6495.19 Joule

g A box having mass 0,5kg is placed in front of a 20 cm compressed spring. When the spring released, box having mass m1, collide
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:Expression given below

Explanation:

Given mass of spring\left ( m_1\right )=0.5 kg

Compression in the spring\left ( x\right )=20 cm

Let the spring constant be K

Using Energy conservation

potential energy stored in spring =Kinetic energy of Block\left ( m_1\right )

\frac{1}{2}Kx^2=\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2

v=x\sqrt{\frac{k}{m_1}}

now conserving momentum

m_1v=\left ( m_1+m_2\right )v_0

v_0=\frac{m_1}{m_1+m_2}v

where v_0 is the final velocity
