To calculate the specific heat capacity of an object or substance, we can use the formula

c = E / m△T

Where
c as the specific heat capacity,
E as the energy applied (assume no heat loss to surroundings),
m as mass and
△T as the energy change.

Now just substitute the numbers given into the equation.

c = 2000 / 2 x 5
c = 2000/ 10
c = 200

Therefore we can conclude that the specific heat capacity of the block is 200 Jkg^-1°C^-1

The temperature and pressure at the surface of Mars during a Martian spring day were determined to be -50 °C and 900 Pa, respect
Sidana [21]

Answer:

T = 273 + (-50) = 273 – 50 = 223 K

R = 188.82 J / kg K for CO2

Density (Martian Atmosphere) = P / RT = 900 / 188.92 x 223 = 900 / 42129.16 = 0.0213 kg / m^{3}

T = 273 +18 = 291 K, R = 287 J / kg k (for air) P = 101.6 k Pa = 101600 Pa

Density (Earth Atmosphere) = P / RT = 101600 / 287 x 291 = 1.216 kg / m^{3}

A rectangular beam 10 cm wide, is subjected to a maximum shear force of 50000 N, the corresponding maximum shear stress being 3
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Shear stress is the ratio of shear force to area.

We have

       Shear stress = 3 N/mm² = 3 x 10⁶ N/m²

       Area = Area of rectangle = 10 x 10⁻² x d = 0.1d

       Shear force = 50000 N

Substituting

        \texttt{Shear stress}=\frac{\texttt{Shear force}}{\texttt{Area}}\\\\3\times 10^6=\frac{50000}{0.1d}\\\\d=0.1667m=16.67cm

Width of beam = 16.67 cm

Option B is the correct answer.

Find the intensity in decibels [i(db)] for each value of i. normal conversation: i = 106i0 i(db) = power saw a 3 feet: i = 1011i
White raven [17]

Answer:

Normal Conversation: i=106i0

i(dB)=60

Power saw a 3 feet: i=1011i0

i(dB)=110

Jet engine at 100 feet: i=1018i0

i(dB)=180

Explanation:

if these are the same as edge, then these are the answers! :)

Max and Jimmy want to jump on a trampoline. Max begins jumping in a steady pattern, making small waves in the trampoline. Jimmy
mylen [45]

Answer:

x_total = (A + B) cos (wt + Ф)

we have the sum of the two waves in a phase movement

Explanation:

In this case we can see that the first boy Max when he enters the trampoline and jumps creates a harmonic movement, with a given frequency. When the second boy Jimmy enters the trampoline and begins to jump he also creates a harmonic movement. If the frequency of the two movements is the same and they are in phase we have a resonant process, where the amplitude of the movement increases significantly.

         Max

               x₁ = A cos (wt + Ф)

         Jimmy

              x₂ = B cos (wt + Ф)

         

total movement

             x_total = (A + B) cos (wt + Ф)

 Therefore we have the sum of the two waves in a phase movement

Two long conducting cylindrical shells are coaxial and have radii of 20 mm and 80 mm. The electric potential of the inner conduc
xxMikexx [17]

Answer: 14.52*10^6 m/s

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider the energy conservation for the electron within the coaxial cylidrical wire.

the change in potential energy for the electron; e*ΔV is  equal to energy kinetic gained for the electron so:

e*ΔV=1/2*m*v^2  v^=(2*e*ΔV/m)^1/2= (2*1.6*10^-19*600/9.1*10^-31)^1/2=14.52 *10^6 m/s
