A mass of 0.5kg of water at 25°C is placed in a microwave oven and heated for 30s.
The final temperature of the water is 30°C. What is the rate of energy transfer to the water?
specific thermal capacity of water = 4200Jkg–1K–1
A 350W
B 700W C 2100W
10500W
4 An asteroid travelling at a constant velocity is observed. A radar pulse emitted at time t = 0.00s reflects from the asteroid and is detected at time t = 6.00 seconds.
Ten minutes after the first pulse, a second pulse is emitted. This pulse returns after 5.98 seconds.
What is the component of velocity of the asteroid in the direction of the Earth?
A 5.0kms–1
B 10kms–1
C 300kms–1
D 600kms–1
