Ice has a specific heat of 2090 j/(kg c) and water has a specific heat of 4186 j/(kg c). water has a latent heat of fusion of 3.3x10^5 j/k and a latent heat of vaporization of 2.26x10^6 j/k. a 10 kg block of ice begins at -20 degrees c and is slowly heated. how much energy is required to bring the water to 0 degrees c?

Electric field of the earth. the earth has a net electric charge that causes a field at points near its surface equal to 150 n> c and directed in toward the center of the earth. (a) what magnitude and sign of charge would a 60-kg human have to acquire to overcome his or her weight by the force exerted by the earth’s electric field? (b) what would be the force of repulsion between two people each with the charge calculated in part (a) and separated by a distance of 100 m? is use of the earth’s electric field a feasible means of flight? why or why not?

Energy can be transformed from one form to another. the diagram shows one such process. which energy transformation is represented in the diagram? nuclear to thermal and radiant nuclear to electrical and chemical chemical to nuclear and radiant chemical to electrical and nuclear

Ben (55kg) is standing on very slippery ice when junior (25kg) bumps into him. junior was moving at a speed of 8 m/s before the collision and ben and junior embrace after the collision. find the speed of ben and junior as they move across the ice after the collision. give the answer in m/s. describe the work you did to get the answer.
