Physics
a) If the lizard has a specific heat of 4.2 J/(g x C), what is rate of increase of the lizard’s temperature? (b) Assuming that there is no heat loss by the lizard (to simplify), how long must the lizard lie in the sunlight in order to raise its temperature by 5.0 C?

Physics
A lizard of mass 3.0 g is warming itself in the bright sunlight. It casts a shadow of 1.6 cm^2 on a piece of paper help perpendicularly to the Sun’s rays. The intensity of sunlight at the Earth is 1.4 x 10^3 W/m^2, but only half of this energy penetrates the atmosphere an...

A 20 g lead bullet leaves a rifle at a temperature of 47 degrees celcieus and travels at a velocity of 500 m/s until it hits a large block of ice at 0 degrees celcuis and comes to rest within it. How much ice will melt?

Chemistry
if the H+ in acid mine drainage is 6.3 x 10^-5 mol/L, the pH of the drainage water is ___. It would require ___ gal of 0.1 M Ca(OH)2 (2 is a subscrip) to neutralize the proton acidity in 1000 gal of such drainage water.

Find the magnitude and direction of the equilibrant of two forces, one being horizontal pull of 18 N and the other a pull of 23 N at 50 degrees to the 12 N force.

Mechanics & hydromechanics
Three forces pulling on a body are in equilibrium. The direction of one is due south, the direction of another is 80 degrees east of north, and the third force acts in the direction of 35 degrees west of north. If the magnitude of southerly force is 38 N, find the magnitudes o...

A uniform 98 N pipe is used as a lever. Where the fulcrum must be placed if a 504 N weight at one end is to balance a 192 N weight at the other end?

Mechanics & hydromechanics
A uniform plank AB of length 4.6 m and weight 508 N is suspended by a vertical rope at each end.A girl of weight 305 N stands in the position 1.6 m from one end.Calculate the tension in the rope at one end using the other end as axis of rotation.

Mechanics & hydromechanics
Where a 1208 N weight must be hung on a uniform 214 m pole so that a boy at one end supports one-third as much as a man at the other end.
