3.5 g of a hydrocarbon fuel is burned in a vessel that contains 250. grams of water initially at 25.00 C. After the combustion,

kherson [118]

Answer:

3.) 463 J/g

Explanation:

Heat given by the fuel is used to increase the temperature of the water

so it is given as

$Q = ms\Delta T$

here we will have

m = 250 g

$\Delta T = 26.55 - 25$

now we also know that

$s = 4186$

so we have

$Q = (0.250)(4186)(26.55 - 25)$

$Q = 1622.075 J$

so 3.5 g fuel gives above energy

so per gram of fuel will have total energy given as

$Q = \frac{1622.075}{3.5}$

$Q = 463.45 J/g$

A thin, light wire 75.2 cm long having a circular cross section 0.560 mm in diameter has a 25.2 kg weight attached to it, causin

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The stress is calculated as $1.003\times 10^{9}\ Pa$

Solution:

As per the question:

Length of the wire, l = 75.2 cm = 0.752 m

Diameter of the circular cross-section, d = 0.560 mm = $0.560\times 10^{- 3}\ m$

Mass of the weight attached, m = 25.2 kg

Elongation in the wire, $\Delta l = 1.10\ mm = 1.10\times 10^{- 3}\ m$

Now,

The stress in the wire is given by:

$Stress,\ \sigma = \frac{Force,\ F}{Area,\ A}$ (1)

Now,

Force is due to the weight of the attached weight:

F = mg = $25.2\times 9.8 = 246.96\ N$

Cross sectional Area, A = $\pi (\frac{d}{2})^{2} = \pi (\frac{0.560\times 10^{- 3}}{2})^{2} = 2.46\times 10^{- 7}\ m^{2}$

Using these values in eqn (1):

$\sigma = \frac{246.96}{2.46\times 10^{- 7}} = 1.003\times 10^{9}\ Pa$

A SMART car can accelerate from rest to a speed of 28 m/s in 20s. What distance does it travel in this time?

sashaice [31]

Speed= distance/ time so distance = speed * time= 28 * 20= 560m .. so the answer is 560m.. l hope it helped :)

an electric device is plugged into a 110v wall socket. if the device consumes 500 w of power, what is the resistance of the devi

andreev551 [17]

Answer: R=24.2Ω

Explanation: <u>Power</u> is rate of work being done in an electric circuit. It relates to voltage, current and resistance through the following formulas:

P=V.i

P=R.i²

$P=\frac{V^{2}}{R}$

The resistance of the system is:

$P=\frac{V^{2}}{R}$

$R=\frac{V^{2}}{P}$

$R=\frac{110^{2}}{500}$

R = 24.2Ω

<u>For the device, resistance is 24.2Ω.</u>
