Answer:

C

Explanation:

Q=mcΔθ

Q= quantity of heat, m= mass of the storage rock

Δθ= change in temperature.

Solving for m: m= Q/(cΔθ)

Where Q=5.410^{7}

Δθ=62°C-20°C

 =42°C

c=0.21cal/g.°C

m=\frac{5.4*10^{7} }{0.21*42} \\\\m=6122448.98g\\

Calculating gives us m≈6100000g

m≈6100kg

An air hockey game has a puck of mass 30 grams and a diameter of 100 mm. The air film under the puck is 0.1 mm thick. Calculate
inna [2210]

Answer:

the time it takes after impact for the puck is 2.18 seconds

Explanation:

initially given information

mass = 30 g = 0.03 kg

diameter = 100 mm = 0.1 m

thickness = 0.1 mm = 1 ×10^{-4} m

dynamic viscosity = 1.75 ×10^{-5} Ns/m²

temperature of air = 15°C

to determine

time needed for the puck to reduce its speed by 10%

solution

we note that velocity changes from 0 to v

assuming initial velocity = v

therefore final velocity = 0.9v

implying a change in velocity is du = v

and clearance dy = h

shear stress acting on the surface is expressed as

= µ \frac{du}{dy}

therefore

= µ \frac{v}{h}............1

substituting the values

= 1.75 ×10^{-5} × \frac{v}{10^{-4}}

= 0.175 v

the area between the air and puck is given by

Area = \frac{\pi }{4} d^{2}

area = \frac{\pi }{4} 0.1^{2}

area = 7.85 × \frac{v}{10^{-3}} m²

thus, the force on the puck can be represented as

Force = × area

force = 0.175 v × 7.85 × 10^{-3}

force = 1.374 × 10^{-3} v

now applying Newton's second law

force = mass × acceleration

- force = mass \frac{dv}{dt}

- 1.374 × 10^{-3} v = 0.03 \frac{0.9v - v }{t}

solving for t = \frac{0.1 v * 0.03}{1.37*10^{-3} v}

the time needed after impact for the puck is 2.18 seconds

9. A 2 liter bottle of Coke weighs about 2 kilograms. If that bottle were combined with an equal amount of anti-Coke, how many J
Maru [2360]

Answer:

The energy expected to be released is calculated to be 4182 Joules.

Explanation:

The total mass of coke is 2 kg, which is equivalent to 2000 g

1 calorie per gram corresponds to 4.184 Joules of energy

4.184 J/gC * 2000g results in 8368 J

1 food calorie approximates to 4186 J

By subtracting, we find 8368 - 4186

Hence, the total energy that will be released amounts to 4182 Joules.

Assume that the cart is free to roll without friction and that the coefficient of static friction between the block and the cart
Keith_Richards [2263]

Answer:F=\frac{(M+m)g}{\mu _s}

Explanation:

Provided:

The trolley, with mass M, is allowed to roll freely without friction.

The coefficient of friction between the trolley and mass m is \mu _s.

A force F is applied to mass m.

The acceleration of the system is

a=\frac{F}{M+m}

The frictional force will counterbalance the weight of the block.

The frictional force is =\mu _sN

N=ma

\mu _sN=mg

\mu _sma=mg

\mu _s=\frac{g}{a}

F=\frac{(M+m)g}{\mu _s}

Keith_Richards [2263]

Answer:

The initially bent young tree has been straightened by adjusting the tensions of the three guy wires to AB = 7 lb, AC = 8 lb, and AD = 10 lb. Please calculate the force and moment reactions at the trunk's base point O, disregarding the weight of the tree.

C and D are situated 3.1' from the y-axis, while B and C are located 5.4' from the x-axis, and A has a height of 5.2'.

Two very small 8.55-g spheres, 15.0 cm apart from center to center, are charged by adding equal numbers of electrons to each of
ValentinkaMS [2425]

Answer:

1.43 x 10¹⁷.

They will move away from each other.

Explanation:

The force acting on each charged sphere is determined as F = mass x acceleration

= 8.55 x 10⁻³ x 25 x 9.8

= 2.095 N

Assuming Q is the charge on each sphere

F = \frac{9\times10^9\times Q^2}{(15\times10^{-2})^2}

Using the values, 2.095 = \frac{9\times10^9\times Q^2}{(15\times10^{-2})^2}

We find that Q² = \frac{2.095\times(15)^2\times10^{-4}}{9\times10^9}

Thus, Q = 2.289 X 10⁻⁶

The quantity of electrons = Charge / charge of a single electron

= \frac{2.289\times10^{-6}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}

=1.43 x 10¹³.

They will accelerate away from each other.
