How much heat is released when 432 g of water cools down from 71'c to 18'c?

1 answer:

7 0

The heat released by the water when it cools down by a temperature difference $\Delta T$ is
$Q=mC_s \Delta T$
where
m=432 g is the mass of the water
$C_s = 4.18 J/g^{\circ}C$ is the specific heat capacity of water
$\Delta T =71^{\circ}C-18^{\circ}C=53^{\circ}$ is the decrease of temperature of the water

Plugging the numbers into the equation, we find
$Q=(432 g)(4.18 J/g^{\circ}C)(53^{\circ}C)=9.57 \cdot 10^4 J$
and this is the amount of heat released by the water.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

   =    (49 m/s) / (5 seconds)

   = (49 / 5) m/s / s

   =    9.8 m/s²

"The connective tissue that's found between bones."

An example would be between the vertabrae in the spine.

Like the other (inappropriate) answer said, a ligament is what attches muscles and bones.

Also, the tissue inside of bones is bone marrow.

How do vibrations cause sound waves

Mariulka [41]

sound waves are a type of wave sometimes called compression waves, vibrations with enough of an amplitude can compress and decompress the air adjacent to the object causing the waves to form.

Answer:

v = 4.1 m/s

Explanation:

As per mechanical energy conservation law we can say that initial total gravitational potential energy of the sphere is equal to final kinetic energy of rolling

so we will say

$mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2$
