A food provides enough energy to raise the temperature of 2000 grams of water by 10°c contains 20 KCa.

1 Calorie is the amount of heat needed to elevate one gram of water to one degree Celsius temperature at one atmosphere of pressure.

The term "kilocalorie" is used to describe the amount of energy needed to increase 1 L of water's temperature by one degree Celsius at sea level.

Given

Mass of water (m) = 2000 g
Temp raise (ΔT) = 10°C

Heat capacity of water (C) =  1 calorie/g-C

Formula used

Heat (ΔH) = m × C × ΔT

                = 2000 × 10 = 20000 C

In Kilo calories

20000 C = 20000/1000 = 20 KCa

Hence, a food provides enough energy to raise the temperature of 2000 grams of water by 10°c contains 20 KCa.

What is the energy of an object because of its potential and kinetic energies?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The sum of an object's potential and kinetic energies is called the object's mechanical energy. As an object falls its potential energy decreases, while its kinetic energy increases. The decrease in potential energy is exactly equal to the increase in kinetic energy

Calculate the ratio of the velocity of helium atoms to the velocity of neon atoms at the same temperature.
o-na [289]

Answer:

vHe / vNe = 2.24

Explanation:

To obtain the velocity of an ideal gas you must use the formula:

v = √3RT / √M

Where R is gas constant (8.314 kgm²/s²molK); T is temperature and M is molar mass of the gas (4x10⁻³kg/mol for helium and 20,18x10⁻³ kg/mol for neon). Thus:

vHe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √4x10⁻³kg/mol

vNe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol

The ratio is:

vHe / vNe = √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √4x10⁻³kg/mol / √3×8.314 kgm²/s²molK×T / √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol

vHe / vNe = √20.18x10⁻³kg/mol / √4x10⁻³kg/mol

<em>vHe / vNe = 2.24</em>

I hope it helps!
