Answer:
The substance has a specific heat of 1.176 J/g°C
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: </u>Data given
Temperature change = 34 °C
Mass of the substance = 20 kg = 20000 grams
The substance gained 800 kJ of heat during this temperature change
<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate the specific heat
q = m*c*ΔT
⇒ with q = heat gained = 800 kJ = 800000 J
⇒ with m = the mass of the substance = 20 kg = 20000 grams
⇒ with c = the specific heat of the substance = TO BE DETERMINED
⇒ with ΔT = the change of temperature = T2 -T1 = 48° - 14 ° = 34°
c = q/(m*ΔT)
c = 800000 / (20000 * 34)
c = 1.176 J/g°C
The substance has a specific heat of 1.176 J/g°C
An experiment could be performed comparing this cleanser brand with others to see if what it has claimed is true.
Answer:
Conversion gives 42,107 km in total
Explanation:
A marathon covers 26 miles and 285 yards.
If 1 kilometer is 0.6214 miles, then how many kilometers are 26 miles, then:
1 km = 0.6214 miles
X = 26 miles
X = 41,841 km
Now if 1 yard is 36 inches, how many inches is 285 yards?
1 yard = 36 inches
285 yards = X
X = 10260 inches
If an inch is equal to 2.54 cm, how many centimeters are 10260 inches?
1 inch = 2.54 cm
10260 cm = X
X = 26060.4 cm
And 26060.4 cm is 0.260604 km
Finally, the sum of the distance would be:
41.841 km + 0.260604 km = 42.107 km
