Answer: c. 4.56 × 105 J

Explanation:

Given that

mass of lead brick, m= 7.25kg

Temperature T1 =  18.0 °C

Temperature T2 = 328 °C

specific heat capacity of lead, c = 128 J/(kg∙C°)

latent heat of fusion Lfusion =23,200 J/kg

Amount of energy Q =?

Using the formulae

Amount of energy ,Q =mc ( T2-T1)+ mLfusion

7.25kg x 128 J/(kg∙C°) x (328-18°C) + 7.25kg x 23200 J/kg

=455880J

=4.56 x 10^5 J

marta [7]

Answer:

Stars live to long to be observed from birth to death

Explanation:

The life expectancy of a star are millions of years compared to that of human thereby making it difficult to study the life path and activities of the stars till the point of extinction. This brought about scientist studying different star with different ages in order to answer their burning question on formation of stars which is called the figuring out process(stellar activity) and this makes it difficult and tedious.

For a metal that has an electrical conductivity of 7.1 x 107 (Ω-m)-1, do the following: (a) Calculate the resistance (in Ω) of a
jonny [76]

Answer:

(a) 0.0178 Ω

(b) 3.4 A

(c) 6.4 x 10⁵ A/m²

(d) 9.01 x 10⁻³ V/m

Explanation:

(a)

σ = Electrical conductivity = 7.1 x 10⁷ Ω-m⁻¹

d = diameter of the wire = 2.6 mm = 2.6 x 10⁻³ m

Area of cross-section of the wire is given as

A = (0.25) π d²

A = (0.25) (3.14) (2.6 x 10⁻³)²

A = 5.3 x 10⁻⁶ m²

L = length of the wire = 6.7 m

Resistance of the wire is given as

R=\frac{L}{A\sigma }

R=\frac{6.7}{(5.3\times10^{-6})(7.1\times10^{7}) }

R = 0.0178 Ω

(b)

V = potential drop across the ends of wire = 0.060 volts

i = current flowing in the wire

Using ohm's law, current flowing is given as

i = \frac{V}{R}

i = \frac{0.060}{0.0178}

i = 3.4 A

(c)

Current density is given as

J = \frac{i}{A}

J = \frac{3.4}{5.3\times10^{-6}}

J = 6.4 x 10⁵ A/m²

(d)

Magnitude of electric field is given as

E = \frac{J}{\sigma }

E = \frac{6.4 \times 10^{5}}{ 7.1 \times 10^{7}}

E = 9.01 x 10⁻³ V/m

A friend throws a heavy ball toward you while you are standing on smooth ice. You can either catch the ball or deflect it back t
baherus [9]

Answer:

Explanation:

My speed after the interaction will depend upon the impulse the ball will make on me . Now impulse can be expressed as follows

Impulse = change in momentum

change in momentum in the ball will be maximum when the ball bounces back with the same velocity which can be shown as follows

change in momentum = mv - ( - mv ) = 2mv

So when ball is bounced back with same velocity , it suffers greatest impulse from my hand . In return ,  it reacts with the same impulse on my hand pushing me with greatest impulse according to third law of motion. this maximizes my speed after the interaction.
