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 small cube of metal measures 19.0 mm on a side and weighs 79.6 g. What is the density of the metal in g/cm3?

Nady [450]

Answer:

density of cube =11.605 g/cm³

Explanation:

density of a substance is the mass per unit volume of that substance.

the density of a substance = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

volume of a cube = l³,

l = 19.0mm , lets convert mm to cm

1mm = 0.1cm, thus, 19mm =19*0.1 =1.9cm

length of cube =1.9cm

volume of cube = 1.9³

density of cube = $\frac{79.6}{1.9^{3} }$

density of cube =11.605 g/cm³

A small block of mass 20.0 grams is moving to the right on a horizontal frictionless surface with a speed of 0.68 m/s. The block

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

a) $v'=-0.227\ m.s^{-1}$

b) $v=1.36\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the lighter block, $m'=0.02\kg$

velocity of the lighter block, $u'=0.68\ m.s^{-1}$

mass of the heavier block, $m=0.04\ kg$

velocity of the heavier block, $u=0\ m.s^{-1}$

Using conservation of linear momentum:

$m'.u'+m.u=m'.v'+m.v$

where:

$v'=$ final velocity of the lighter block

$v=$ final velocity of the heavier block

$m'.u'=m'.v'+m.v$

$m'(u'-v')=m.v$ ........................(1)

Since kinetic energy is conserved in elastic collision:

$\frac{1}{2}m'.u'^2=\frac{1}{2}m'.v'^2+\frac{1}{2}m.v^2$

$m'(u'^2-v'^2)=m.v^2$

$m'(u'-v')(u'+v')= m.v^2$

divide the above equation by eq. (1)

$v=u'+v'$ .............................(2)

now we substitute the value of v from eq. (2) in eq. (1)

$m'(u'-v')=m(u'+v')$

$\frac{m'+m}{m'-m} =\frac{u'}{v'}$

$\frac{0.02+0.04}{0.02-0.04} =\frac{0.68}{v'}$

$v'=-0.227\ m.s^{-1}$ (negative sign denotes that the direction is towards left)

now we substitute the value of v' from eq. (2) in eq. (1)

$m'(u'-v+u')=m.v$

$2m'.u'=(m-m')v$

$2\times 0.02\times 0.68=(0.04-0.02)\times v$

$v=1.36\ m.s^{-1}$

Lunna [17]

Answer:

7) there is a theory that these animals can see the magnetic field of the Earth due to a compass like mechanism inside their eyes in order to navigate.

8) Earth's magnetic field is a result of the currents found inside the outer core that consist of electricity.

A cricket player catches the ball leaning towards to the ground,why?

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

As it’s difficult to catch it from up.

Gravitational force will pull us when we jump.

If gravity was not there, he could catch the ball. But he will float in the sky after that.

That’s the answer
