Answer:

2465 J/g

Explanation:

The amount of energy required to boil a sample of water already at boiling point is given by

Q=m\lambda_v

where

m is the mass of the water sample

\lambda_v is the specific latent heat of vaporization of water

In this problem, we know

Q=813,600 J

m = 330 g

Solving the equation for \lambda_v, we find

\lambda_v = \frac{Q}{m}=\frac{813600}{330}=2465 J/g

White raven [17]

Answer:

<h2>The potential difference increases </h2>

Explanation:

from the relation E= \frac{V}{d}

where E= electric field (force per coulomb)

            V= voltage

            d= distance

Hence the voltage is going to be V= E×d.

Therefore this means that increasing the distance increases the voltage.

Two small diameter, 10gm dielectric balls can slide freely on a vertical channel each carry a negative charge of 1microcoulomb.
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The distance of separation is d = 0.092 \ m

Explanation:

The mass of the each ball is  m= 10 g  =  0.01 \ kg

 The negative charge on each ball is q_1 =q_2=q =  1 \mu C  =  1 *10^{-6} \ C

Now we are told that the lower ball is  restrained from moving this implies that the net force acting on it is  zero

Hence the gravitational force acting on the lower ball is equivalent to the electrostatic force i.e

          F =  \frac{kq_1 * q_2}{d}

=>       m* g  =  \frac{kq_1 * q_2}{d}

here k the the coulomb's  constant with a value  k = 9*10^{9} \ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4}\cdot A^2.

So  

      0.01 * 9.8  =  \frac{ 9*10^9 *[1*10^{-6} * 1*10^{-6}]}{d}

            d = 0.092 \ m

Compare the benefits of wildfires to grasslands, northern forests, and deciduous forests.
Dimas [21]
Wildfires benefit grasslands, northern forests, and deciduous forests. Grasslands are benefited by improved soil quality and control of tree cover. Invertebrate species diversity is maintained through wildfire as well. Northern forests, like grasslands, experience increased production and nutritional quality of food as a result of wildfires. Deciduous forests experience an increase in the nutritional quality of food as well, but the effects are more temporary. The amount of shrubs in deciduous forests is reduced as a result of wildfires, allowing more herbaceous plants such as mosses and lichens to grow.

A 2300 kg truck has put its front bumper against the rear bumper of a 2500 kg suv to give it a push. with the engine at full pow
Snowcat [4.5K]

From the Newton’s First Law, we can see that acceleration is simply the ratio of Force over mass. In this case, mass is the sum of the mass of each car, that is:

mass = 2300 kg + 2500 kg = 4800 kg

 

So the formula is:

acceleration = Force / mass

acceleration = 18,000 N / 4800 kg

acceleration = 3.75 m/s^2

 

In 2 significant figures:

<span>acceleration = 3.8 m/s^2</span>
