According to the definition of calorimetry,  the mass of the coffee is 253.33 g.

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

Sensible heat is defined as the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state (phase change).

so, the equation that allows to calculate heat exchanges is:

Q = c× m× ΔT

where:

Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m.

c is the specific heat substance.

ΔT is the temperature variation.

Mass of coffee

In this case, Given is :

Q= 190 calories

c= 1

m= ?

ΔT= 0.75 C

Replacing in the equation that allows to calculate heat exchanges is:

190 cal = 1 × m× 0.75 C

Solving:

m= 190 cal÷ (1 × 0.75 C)

m=253.33 g

Finally, the mass of the coffee is 253.33 g.

What is the force in N of an object that has a mass of 7 kilograms and an acceleration of 4 m/s/s
VMariaS [17]

Newton's 2nd law of motion:         Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

If you want to move a 7-kg object with an acceleration of 4 m/s²,
then you will need to push it with (7 x 4) = 28 newtons of force.
