A sample of an unknown substance has a mass of 0. 158 kg. If 2,510. 0 J of heat is required to heat the substance from 32. 0Â°C

The specific heat of the unknown substance with a mass of 0.158kg is 0.5478 J/g°C

HOW TO CALCULATE SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY:

The specific heat capacity of a substance can be calculated using the following formula:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = quantity of heat absorbed (J)
c = specific heat capacity (4.18 J/g°C)
m = mass of substance
∆T = change in temperature (°C)

According to this question, 2,510.0 J of heat is required to heat the 0.158kg substance from 32.0°C to 61.0°C. The specific heat capacity can be calculated:

2510 = 158 × c × (61°C - 32°C)

2510 = 4582c

c = 2510 ÷ 4582

c = 0.5478 J/g°C

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of the unknown substance that has a mass of 0.158 kg is 0.5478 J/g°C.

Hi, I need some science help ASAP. Here's the question:

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Mass of the box is 25kg

Explanation:

From Newton's second law of motion

Force= mass. acceleration

With the symbol

F=m.a

m=F/a m=(50N)/(2m/s²)

m=25kg

Describe one new piece of information that you learned about one of the featured scientist

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Development in science:

There a number of individuals in the world around us who has improved the field of science and made it easy for us to know this universe more easily then ever. This universe is still unexplored and there are going to be more then billions of stars which are still not studied and has an immense amount of information regarding the universe.

Stephen Hawking: The scientist who made it easy for each of us to know the universe and more over the cosmos in a more detailed form, as before this no one knew about the different patterns of entities and there properties.

A genius who was handicapped:

He was a genius in cosmology, mathematics, and other subjects of science as he was diagnosed by the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS), which made it unable for him to live a normal life.But, he communicated through a computer which detected his nerve signals and shared his thoughts about any thing or subject.

Why him?

Stephen hawking was just tremendous in making it more understandable about the black holes, time worms, and space etc.As it was known to very small number of people before he took the stage.

At a circus, a human cannonball is shot from a cannon at 15m/s at an angle of 40° above horizontal. She

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

a

The height is $H = 6.74 \ m$

b

The horizontal distance is $D = 23.74 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed is $v = 15 \ m/s$

The angle is $\theta = 40^o$

The height of the cannon from the ground is h = 2 m

The distance of the net from the ground is k = 1 m

Generally the maximum height she reaches is mathematically represented as

$H = \frac{v^2 sin^2 \theta }{2 * g } + h$

=> $H = \frac{(15)^2 [sin (40)]^2 }{2 * 9.8} + 2$

=> $H = 6.74 \ m$

Generally from kinematic equation

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Here s is the displacement which is mathematically represented as

s = [-(h-k)]

=> s = -(2-1)

=> s = -1 m

There reason why s = -1 m is because upward motion canceled the downward motion remaining only the distance of the net from the ground which was covered during the first half but not covered during the second half

a = -g = -9.8

$u = v sin (\theta)$
