How big is a ton? that is, what is the volume of something that weighs a ton? to be specific, estimate the diameter of a 1-ton rock, but first make a wild guess> : will it be 1 ft across, 3 feet, or the size of a car? (hint: rock has mass er volume about three times that of water, which is 1 kg per liter(10^3cm^3) or 62lb per cubic foot)

The specific heat of silver is 0.057 calories/gram°c. if 10.0 grams of silver were heated and the temperature of the sample changed by 20.0°c, how many calories of heat energy were absorbed by the sample?

Does anyone know how to solve this problem? i really need . i made an attempt but i just cant get it. a metal rod is 25.000 cm long at 25.0 degrees celsius. when heated to 102.0 degrees celsius, it is 25.054 cm long. what is the coefficient of linear expansion for this metal.

Your starship, the aimless wanderer, lands on the mysterious planet mongo. as chief scientist-engineer, you make the following measurements: a 2.50-kg stone thrown upward from the ground at 14.0 m/s returns to the ground in 5.70 s ; the circumference of mongo at the equator is 2.20×10^5 km ; and there is no appreciable atmosphere on mongo. (a) the starship commander, captain confusion, asks for the following information: what is the mass of mongo? (b) if the aimless wanderer goes into a circular orbit 2.20×10^4 km above the surface of mongo, how many hours will it take the ship to complete one orbit? (c) an unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 44.0 km . to the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 23.0 m/s . if nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?
