A 3.00-g copper penny at 25.0°C drops from a height of50.0 m to the ground. (

Mathematics

Gnoma [55]3 years ago

The potential energy, E, of the penny is given by E=mgh.  The energy, Q, required to raise the temperature of an object by an amount ΔT is given by Q=mcΔT.  We can equate these two to get the result but we must use proper units and include the 60%:
(0.6)mgh=mcΔT
We see we can divide out the mass from each side
0.6gh=cΔT,   then 0.6gh/c=ΔT
(0.6)9.81(m/s²)50m/385(J/kg°C) = 0.7644°C
since this is the change in temperature and it started at 25°C we get
T=25.7644°C
As you can see the result does not depend on mass.  The more massive the copper object the more potential energy it will have to contribute to the heat energy, but the more stuff there will be to heat up, and the effect is that the mass cancels.

Solve using the quadratic frmula 2x^2-5x=3
Mnenie [13.5K]

2x2−5x=3

I think the first step would be to

Subtract 3 from both sides

2x2−5x−3=3−3

2x2−5x−3=0

Then

For this equation: a=2, b=-5, c=-3

2x2+−5x+−3=0

Lastly you would

Use quadratic formula with a=2, b=-5, c=-3

I think your answer would then have to be...

x = 3 or x =  −1 /2

2. If a= 2, b= 3 and c= 3,evaluate: i) a+ 2b ii) a+b+c​
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

i)a + 2b = 2 + 2(3) = 2 + 6 = 8 \\ ii)a + b + c = 2 + 3 + 3 = 2 + 6 = 8

Find values of a and b that make the statement |a+b|= |a|+|b| false.
jok3333 [9.3K]

The values that make this statement falser are any in which a and b do not have the same sign.

For instance, if a was equal to 3 and b was equal to -3 than see the results.

|a+b|=

|3+-3|=

|0|= 0

Then see the next equation with the same selections

|a|+|b|

|3|+|-3|

3 + 3 = 6

And this would be true no matter which is the negative, as long as there is one negative and one positive.

Georgia has a budget of $8 for a new notebook. She wants to spend within $5 of her budget, so she uses the equation 5 = |8 – x|
siniylev [52]

Answer:

Minimum: 3

Maximum: 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Georgia uses the equation

5 = |8 – x| to find the maximum and minimum values.

We solve the equation for x.

5 =  |8 - x|

By the definition of the absolute value function, we must have:

- 5 = 8 - x \: or \: 5 = 8 - x

We subtract 8 from both sides to get:

- 5 - 8 =  - x \: or \: 5 - 8 =  - x

- 13 =  - x \: or \:  - 3 =  - x

This simplifies to:

13 =  x \: or \:  3 = x

Therefore the minimum value is 3 and maximum is 13
