You need to find the mass of water in the pool.
Find the volume (10 x 4 x 3) = 120 m3

Water has a density of 1000g/m3,so 120 m3 = 120 x 1000 = 120 000 kg

[delta]H = 4.187 x 120 000 x 3.4 (and the units will be kJ)

You then use the heat of combustion knowing that each mole of methane releases 891 kJ of heat so if you divide 891 into the previous answer, you will get the number of moles of CH4

Answer:

119.69 kilo liter volume of methane measured at STP, must be burned.

Explanation:

Length of the pool= 10.0 m

Breadth of the pool = 4.0 m

Height upto which the pool will be filled= 3.0 m

Volume of the water in the pool = volume of the pool :

= 10.0 m × 4.0 m × 3.0 m = 120.0 m^3

Density water = 997 kg/m^3

Mass of the water(m) = Density \times volume =997 kg/m^3\times 120 m^3=119,640 kg

Energy required to raise the temperature = Q

Mass of the water = m = 119,640 kg =119,640\times 1,000 g=119,640,000 g

Specific heat of water ,c= 4.186 J/g °C

Change in temperature, \Delta T=29.7^oC-20.2^oC=9.5 ^oC

Q=mc\Delta T

Q=119,640,000 g\times 4.186J/g ^oC\times 9.5 ^oC

Q = 476,113.36\times 10^4J=476,1133.6 kJ

Heat required to raised the temperature is 476,1133.6 kJ.

Heat evolved when 1 mol of methane = -891 Kj

Number of moles of methane giving (- 476,1133.6) kJ of heat:

\frac{-476,1133.6 kJ.}{-891}=5,343.58 mol

At STP, 1 mol occupies = 22.4 L

Then 5,343.58 mol will occupy :22.4\times 5,343.58 L=119,696.19 l=119.69 kilo liter

119.69 kilo liter volume of methane measured at STP, must be burned.

Work out the kinetic energy of a 2.5 kg remote-controlled car that is moving at 2 m/s.
lbvjy [14]

Answer: 5 joules

Explanation:

mass=m=2.5kg

Velocity=v=2m/s

Kinetic energy=ke

ke=(m x v x v)/2

ke=(2.5 x 2 x 2)/2

Ke=10/2

Ke=5

Kinetic energy=5 joules

An object is dropped from a vertical distance of 25.5 m above the ground, and it takes 2.28 sec to fall that distance. A second
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The second object takes 2.28 s to fall the 25.5 m.

Explanation:

In this case, both objects take the same time to fall, since <em>no vertical velocity is added </em>to any of them.

You can also confirm this by sepparating the second's object movement into its two directions: in the horizontal one, we have <em>linear uniform motion, </em>and in the vertical one, we have <em>free fall, </em>with exactly the same characteristics as for the first object.

a DJ uses a 110-volt outlet to plug in a strobe light. if the current flowing through the light is 0.050 amps, how much resistan
tigry1 [53]

Ohms Law: V = IR

V is the voltage in volts

I is the current in amps

R is the resistance in Ohms

Rearrange: R = V/I

R = (110)/(0.050)

R = 2200

There are 2200 Ohms of resistance in the circuit.
