1 BTU mean 1 degree of F increased for 1 pound mass. Since the mass unit is in kg that means you need to convert it into pound. One metric ton means 1000kg and 1 kg mean 2.20462lb, then the water mass is: 1000kg x 2.20462lb/kg= 2204.62lb.

You are putting 110,000 btus of heat, so the calculation would be

Temperature increase= energy/mass = 110000btus/ 2204.62lb= 49.9 degree

Our two intrepid relacar drivers are named Pam and Ned. We use these names to make it easy to remember: measurements made by Pam
zhannawk [14.2K]

The velocity of Ned as measured by Pam is the interpretation of v.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to question, we know that this is an issue depending on the logical and translation of the factors. From the measured information taken what is gathered by the two people is communicated and we have given as:

The Ned reference framework : (x, t)  

The Pam reference framework :  \left(x^{\prime}, t^{\prime}\right)

From the reference framework, we realize that ν is the speed of Pam (the other reference framework) as estimation by Ned.  

At that point, v^{\prime} is the speed of Ned (from the other arrangement of the reference) as estimation by Pam.

A racecar driver on a flat racetrack steps on the gas, changing her velocity from 10 m/sec to 30 m/sec in 5 seconds. What is the
erastova [34]

Answer:

4m/s2

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

U (initial velocity) = 10m/s

V (final velocity) = 30m/s

t (time) = 5secs

a (acceleration) =?

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. It is represented mathematically as:

a = (V - U)/t

Now, with this equation i.e

a = (V - U)/t, we can calculate the acceleration of the race car as follow:

a = (V - U)/t

a = (30 - 10)/5

a = 20/5

a = 4m/s2

Therefore, the acceleration of the race car is 4m/s2

How much energy does a 50 kg rock have if it is sitting on the edge of a 15 m cliff?
noname [10]

Answer:

7350 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of the rock sitting on the edge of the cliff is given by:

U=mgh

where

m is the mass of the rock

g is the gravitational acceleration

h is the height of the cliff

In this problem, we have

m = 50 kg

g = 9.8 m/s^2

h = 15 m

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find:

U=(50 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(15 m)=7350 J
