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.

A 5cm tall object is placed 4cm in front of a converging lens that has a focal length of 8cm. Where is the image located in ____

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

a. -8 cm

Explanation:

$d_{o}$ = distance of the object = 4 cm

$d_{i}$ = distance of the image = ?

$f$ = focal length of the converging lens = 8 cm

using the lens equation

$\frac{1}{d_{o}} + \frac{1}{d_{i}} = \frac{1}{f}$

$\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{d_{i}} = \frac{1}{8}$

$d_{i}$ = - 8 cm

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Which of the following statements is true with regard to transverse and longitudinal waves?

pishuonlain [190]

Answer: Transverse waves have motion perpendicular to velocity, while longitudinal waves have motion parallel to velocity.

Explanation:

Transverse waves are characterized by the fact that the particles of the medium in which they propagate move transversely to the direction of propagation of the wave.

In other words,<u> its displacement is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave</u>, being a good example the circular waves in the water.

On the other hand, Longitudinal waves are characterized by the fact that <u>the oscillation of the particles in the medium is parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave.</u> A good example of this is the sound wave.

Current Flow and Ohm's Law

Ohm's law is the most important, basic law of electricity. It defines the relationship between the three fundamental electrical quantities: current, voltage, and resistance. When a voltage is applied to a circuit containing only resistive elements (i.e. no coils), current flows according to Ohm's Law, which is shown below.

I = V / R

Where:

I =

Electrical Current (Amperes)

V =

Voltage (Voltage)

R =

Resistance (Ohms)

Ohm's law states that the electrical current (I) flowing in an circuit is proportional to the voltage (V) and inversely proportional to the resistance (R). Therefore, if the voltage is increased, the current will increase provided the resistance of the circuit does not change. Similarly, increasing the resistance of the circuit will lower the current flow if the voltage is not changed. The formula can be reorganized so that the relationship can easily be seen for all of the three variables.

The Java applet below allows the user to vary each of these three parameters in Ohm's Law and see the effect on the other two parameters. Values may be input into the dialog boxes, or the resistance and voltage may also be varied by moving the arrows in the applet. Current and voltage are shown as they would be displayed on an oscilloscope with the X-axis being time and the Y-axis being the amplitude of the current or voltage. Ohm's Law is valid for both direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC). Note that in AC circuits consisting of purely resistive elements, the current and voltage are always in phase with each other.

Exercise: Use the interactive applet below to investigate the relationship of the variables in Ohm's law. Vary the voltage in the circuit by clicking and dragging the head of the arrow, which is marked with the V. The resistance in the circuit can be increased by dragging the arrow head under the variable resister, which is marked R. Please note that the vertical scale of the oscilloscope screen automatically adjusts to reflect the value of the current.

See what happens to the voltage and current as the resistance in the circuit is increased. What happens if there is not enough resistance in a circuit? If the resistance is increased, what must happen in order to maintain the same level of current flow?
