A 50 g copper calorimeter contains 250 g of water at 20 C. How much steam be condensed into the water to make the final temperat

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Approximately $13\; \rm g$ of steam at $100\; \rm ^\circ C$ (assuming that the boiling point of water in this experiment is $100\; \rm ^\circ C\!$ .)

Explanation:

Latent heat of condensation/evaporation of water: $2260\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}$ .

Both mass values in this question are given in grams. Hence, convert the specific heat values from this question to $\rm J \cdot g^{-1}$ .

Specific heat of water: $4.2\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot \rm K^{-1}$ .

Specific heat of copper: $0.39\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot K^{-1}$ .

The temperature of this calorimeter and the $250\; \rm g$ of water that it initially contains increased from $20\; \rm ^\circ C$ to $50\; \rm ^\circ C$ . Calculate the amount of energy that would be absorbed:

$\begin{aligned}& Q(\text{copper}) \\ =\;& c \cdot m \cdot \Delta t \\ =\;& 0.39\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot K^{-1} \times 50\; \rm g \times (50\;{\rm ^\circ C} - 20\;{\rm ^\circ C}) \\ =\; & 585\; \rm J \end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned}& Q(\text{cool water}) \\ =\;& c \cdot m \cdot \Delta t \\ =\;& 4.2\; \rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot K^{-1} \times 250\; \rm g \times (50\;{\rm ^\circ C} - 20\;{\rm ^\circ C}) \\ =\; & 31500\; \rm J \end{aligned}$ .

Hence, it would take an extra $585\; \rm J + 31500\; \rm J = 32085\; \rm J$ of energy to increase the temperature of the calorimeter and the $250\; \rm g$ of water that it initially contains from $20\; \rm ^\circ C$ to $50\; \rm ^\circ C$ .

Assume that it would take $x$ grams of steam at $100\; \rm ^\circ C$ ensure that the equilibrium temperature of the system is $50\; \rm ^\circ C$ .

In other words, $x\; \rm g$ of steam at $100\; \rm ^\circ C$ would need to release $32085\; \rm J$ as it condenses (releases latent heat) and cools down to $50\; \rm ^\circ C$ .

Latent heat of condensation from $x\; \rm g$ of steam: $2260\; {\rm J \cdot g^{-1}} \times (x\; {\rm g}) = (2260\, x)\; \rm J$ .

Energy released when that $x\; {\rm g}$ of water from the steam cools down from $100\; \rm ^\circ C$ to $50\; \rm ^\circ C$ :

$\begin{aligned}Q = \;& c \cdot m \cdot \Delta t \\ =\;& 4.2\; {\rm J \cdot g^{-1}\cdot K^{-1}} \times (x\; \rm g) \times (100\;{\rm ^\circ C} - 50\;{\rm ^\circ C}) \\ =\; & (210\, x)\; \rm J \end{aligned}$ .

These two parts of energy should add up to $32085\; \rm J$ . That would be exactly what it would take to raise the temperature of the calorimeter and the water that it initially contains from $20\; \rm ^\circ C$ to $50\; \rm ^\circ C$ .

$(2260\, x)\; {\rm J} + (210\, x)\; {\rm J} = 32085\; \rm J$ .

Solve for $x$ :

$x \approx 13$ .

Hence, it would take approximately $13\; \rm g$ of steam at $100\; \rm ^\circ C$ for the equilibrium temperature of the system to be $50\; \rm ^\circ C$ .

WILL GIVE BRAINLY!! PLEASE HELPP

LekaFEV [45]

The purpose of the machine is to leverage its mechanical advantage such that the force it outputs to move the heavy object is greater than the force required for you to input.

But there's no such thing as a free lunch! When you apply the conservation of energy, the work the machine does on the object will always be equal to (in an ideal machine) or less than the work you input to the machine.

This means that you will apply a lesser force for a longer distance so that the machine can supply a greater force on the object to push it a smaller distance. That is the trade-off of using the machine: it enables you to use a smaller force but at the cost of having to apply that smaller force for a greater distance.

The answer is: The work input required will equal the work output.

An electric motor does 900j of work for 8 hours. Calculate the power used

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

0.031 W

Explanation:

The power used is equal to the rate of work done:

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

where

P is the power

W is the work done

t is the time taken to do the work W

In this problem, we have:

W = 900 J is the work done by the motor

t = 8 h is the time taken

We have to convert the time into SI units; keeping in mind that

1 hour = 3600 s

We have

$t=8\cdot 3600 =28,800 s$

And therefore, the power used is

$W=\frac{900}{28800}=0.031 W$

Determine the magnitude of the component of F directed along the axis of AB. Set F = 520 N .

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The component of F along AB is equal to Fcos45

F = 520N

Component along AB = 520cos45

= 367.7N

This is done by rotating the diamonds such that AB is now taken as the x-axis. Then the force F is resolved along AB.

Imagine you’re an engineer making a string of battery powered holiday lights. If a bulb burns out current cannot flow through th

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The 2 light bulbs can be connected in parallel to each other to avoid disconnection when one bulb burns out.

Explanation:

The parallel connection is required not series. A parallel connection is the connection of electronic components (e.g bulbs, LED, resistors, capacitors etc) in such a way that the same voltage is supplied across the ends of the components. While in a series connection, the components are connected to each other end-to-end.

As regard the question, parallel connection ensures that the brightness any of the bulbs is not affected with respect to the other bulbs. And other bulbs continue to function when any burns out. The 2 light bulbs should be connected in parallel to the baterry to avoid disconnection of all the bulbs.
