Answer:

c) 3176 J

Explanation:

mass of 125 popcorn = 125 x .0001 = . 0125 kg

increase in temperature =  175 - 21 = 154°C

specific heat of popcorn = 1650

heat required to increase temperature

= mass of popcorn x increase in temperature x specific heat

= .0125 x 154 x 1650

=  3176.25 J

In a 400-m relay race the anchorman (the person who runs the last 100 m) for team A can run 100 m in 9.8 s. His rival, the ancho
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

largest lead = 3 m

Explanation:

Basically, this problem is about what is the largest possible distance anchorman for team B can have over the anchorman for team A when the final leg started that anchorman for team A won the race. This show that anchorman for team A must have higher velocity than anchorman for team B to won the race as at the starting of final leg team B runner leads the team A runner.

So, first we need to calculate the velocities of both the anchorman  

given data:

Distance = d = 100 m

Time arrival for A = 9.8 s

Time arrival for B = 10.1 s

Velocity of anchorman A = D / Time arrival for A

=100/ 9.8 = 10.2 m/s

Velocity of anchorman B = D / Time arrival for B

=100/10.1 = 9.9 m/s

As speed of anchorman A is greater than anchorman B. So, anchorman A complete the race first than anchorman B. So, anchorman B covered lower distance than anchorman A. So to calculate the covered distance during time 9.8 s for B runner, we use

d = vt

= 9.9 x 9.8 = 97 m  

So, during the same time interval, anchorman A covered 100 m distance which is greater than anchorman B distance which is 97 m.

largest lead = 100 - 97 = 3 m

So if his lead no more than 3 m anchorman A win the race.

A sealed test tube traps 25.0 cm3 of air at a pressure of 1.00 atm and temperature of 18°C. The test tube’s stopper has a diamet
puteri [66]

Answer:

180° C

Explanation:

First we start by finding the area of the stopper.

A = πd²/4, where d = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

A = 3.142 * 0.015² * ¼

A = 1.767*10^-4 m²

Next we find the force on the stopper

F = (P - P•)A, where

F = 10 N

P = pressure inside the tube,

P• = 1 atm

10 = (P - 101325) * 1.767*10^-4

P - 101325 = 10/1.767*10^-4

P - 101325 = 56593

P = 56593 + 101325

P = 157918 Pascal

Now, remember, in an ideal gas,

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, where V is constant, then we have

P1/T1 = P2/T2, and when we substitute the values, we have

101325/(273 + 18) = 157918/ T2

101325/291 = 157918/ T2

T2 = (157918 * 291)/101325

T2 = 453 K

T2 = 453 - 273 = 180° C

In addition to average weather conditions, climatological data also describes annual variations and fluctuations of temperature,
drek231 [11]

<u>Answer:</u>

In addition to average weather conditions, climatological data also describes annual variations and fluctuations of temperature, precipitation, wind speed and other variables.

<u>Explanation</u>:

A lot many observations are made all around the world regarding the weather each day. These observations and analysis are done by humans as well as automated instruments. The weather data is collected each day all year and any inaccuracies and discrepancies are checked and rectified. The results are later then presented as the climate data. There are various factors that are taken into consideration while determining the climate of a region. Apart from the factors that are already mentioned, wind speed is also one of the other variables.
