The correct answer is A, 2x^3 - x^2 +3x +7
Q = mc<span>∆t, where:
q = energy flow
m = mass, 120 000 g
c = specific heat capacity, 4.81 J/gC
</span><span>∆t = change in temperature, ~75 (100 - 25, which is room temperature)
Substituting in the values, we get:
q = 120000 x 4.81 x 75 = 43290000 Joules = 43.29 MJ
Hope I helped!! xx

Applicable linear expansion equation:
ΔL = αΔTL
In which
ΔL = change in length, α = Linear expansion coefficient of steel, ΔT = change in temperature, L = original length
Therefore,
ΔL = 12*10^-6*(18.5-(-3))*1410 = 0.36378 m
As you crank the variable resistor to higher resistance, the total current in the loop decreases. The power dissipated by the light bulb ... the heat and brightness it produces ... depend directly on the current through it, so they decrease too. Your circuit is a perfect incandescent light dimmer circuit.
