It takes 204,000J of energy to heat a 12kg piece of wood from 20°C to 30°C. what is the specific heat capacity of the wood?

An airplane flies eastward and always accelerates at a constant rate. at one position along its path it has a velocity of 34.3 m/s, it then flies a further distance of 40100 m and afterwards its velocity is 47.5 m/s. find the airplane\'s acceleration and calculate how much time elapses while the airplane covers those 40100 m.

Agas contained within a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes three processes in series: process 12: compression with pv= constant from 1 bar and 1 liter to 4 bar. process 23: constant pressure expansion to 1 liter. process 31: constant volume calculate the pressure and volume at each state, and sketch the processes on a p-vdiagram labeled with pressure and volume values at each numbered stat

Acup of coffee sits on the dashboard of an automobile. the car goes around a sharp curve. even though you hold the cup still, coffee still splashes out. this can best be explained due to a) density. b) friction. c) gravity. d) inertia.
