The change in heat q for the aluminum cup is 141 J.  

<h3>What is Specific heat?</h3>

A substance's heat capacity is the amount of heat needed to increase its overall temperature by one degree. The heat capacity is known as the specific heat capacity or the specific heat if the substance's mass is unity.

change in heat -

The amount of heat Q that is transported to create a temperature shift depends on the substance and phase involved, the mass of the system, and the magnitude of the temperature change. (A) The temperature change and the amount of heat transported are directly inversely related.

The answer's sign dig is determined by a calculation's lowest sign digits.

The solution will need 3 digits because the temperatures are provided with 3 significant digits and the specified heat has 3 significant digits (the mass has 4 significant digits).

31.91 g   * 0.903 J/g-C  *  (26.1 - 21.2 C) = 141 J

Tanya [424]

Answer:

a) 5.5×10^17 Hz

b) visible light

Explanation:

Since the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation must be about the size of the about itself, this implies that;

λ= 5.5 × 10^-10 m

Since;

c= λ f and c= 3×10^8 ms-1

f= c/λ

f= 3×10^8/5.5 × 10^-10

f= 5.5×10^17 Hz

The electromagnetic wave is visible light

This is more chemistry. But it is a process called fractional distillation, and it basically separates the long chained hydrocarbons from the short chained hydrocarbons through separation dependant on the boiling point of the crude oil.

A block of mass 4 kilograms is initially moving at 5m/s on a horizontal surface. There is friction between the block and the sur
emmasim [6.3K]

• Net vertical force on the block:

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>n</em> - <em>w</em> = 0

(<em>n</em> = magnitude of normal force, <em>w</em> = weight)

<em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = <em>m g</em>

(<em>m</em> = mass, <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s²)

<em>n</em> = (4 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = 39.2 N

• Net horizontal force:

∑ <em>F</em> = -<em>f</em> = <em>m a</em>

(<em>f</em> = mag. of friction, <em>a</em> = acceleration)

We have <em>f</em> = <em>µ</em> <em>n</em> = 0.5 (39.2 N) = 19.6 N, so

-19.6 N = (4 kg) <em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = -4.9 m/s²

With this acceleration, the block comes to a rest from an initial speed of 5 m/s, so that it travels a distance ∆<em>x</em> in this time such that

0² - (5 m/s)² = 2 (-4.9 m/s²) ∆<em>x</em>

∆<em>x</em> = (25 m²/s²) / (9.8 m/s²) ≈ 2.55 m ≈ 2.6 m

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

25032.47 W

Explanation:

Power is the time rate of doing work, hence,

P = Work done(non conservative) / time

Work done (non conservative) is given as:

W = total K. E. + total P. E.

Total K. E. = 0.5mv²- 0.5mu²

Where v (final velocity) = 7.0m/s, u (initial velocity) = 0m/s

Total P. E. = mgh(f) - mgh(i)

Where h(f) (final height) = 7.2m, h(i) (initial height) = 0 m

=> W = 0.5mv² - mgh(f)

P = [0.5mv² - mgh(f)] / t

P = [(0.5*790*7²) - (790*9.8*7.2)] / 3

P = (19355 + 55742.4) / 3 = 75097.4/3

P = 25032.47 W
