A. How many calories are needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 °C?

sweet-ann [11.9K]

A) 1 cal

B) 80 cal

C) 540 cal

Explanation:

The amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of a certain mass of a substance is given by

$Q=mC\Delta T$

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is the specific heat capacity

$\Delta T$ is the change in temperature

In this problem:

m = 1 g is the mass of water

$C=1 cal/g^{\circ}C$ is the specific heat capacity of water

$\Delta T=1^{\circ}C$ is the change in temperature

So, the heat needed is

$Q=(1)(1)(1)=1 cal$

For a solid substance at its melting point, the amount of heat needed to melt completely the substance is given by

$Q=m\lambda_f$

where

m is the mass of the substance

$\lambda_f$ is the specific latent heat of fusion of the substance

In this problem:

- The ice is already at melting point, 0 °C

- Mass of the ice: $m=1g$

- Specific latent heat of fusion of ice: $\lambda_f=80 cal/g$

So, the heat needed is

$Q=(1)(80)=80 cal$

For a liquid substance at its boiling point, the amount of heat needed to boil completely the substance is given by

$Q=m\lambda_v$

where

m is the mass of the substance

$\lambda_v$ is the specific latent heat of vaporization of the substance

In this problem:

- The water is already at boiling point, 100 °C

- Mass of the water: $m=1g$

- Specific latent heat of vaporization of water: $\lambda_v=540 cal/g$

So, the heat needed is

$Q=(1)(540)=540 cal$

Which of the following changes would cause the fusion rate in the Sun’s core to increase? Check all that apply. View Available H

fredd [130]

Answer:

1. An increase in the core temperature

2. A decrease in the core radius.

Explanation:

The sun is a Main Sequence star. A Main Sequence star is powered by fusing hydrogen into Helium within its core.

For this fusion to take place, a temperature of at least 10 million Kelvin is required, beyond this point, the fusion rate is directly related to the core temperature. If the temperature increases, the fusion rate will greatly increase.

Something similar happens if the core reduces its radius. This can happen at the end of the star's lifetime, shortly before it becomes a red giant. Once the hydrogen is depleted, the core will start to shrink because the force of gravity, and as it gets smaller, gets more compressed, and its temperature increases. The outer layers of remaining Hydrogen that were outside the core now begin to heat up, and as the core continues to shrink, the star gets hot enough to begin the fusion process again, and the fusion rate can even be higher than it was during the first phase of the star, as the star becomes a Red Giant.
