Answer:
-8.4°C
Explanation:
From the principle of heat capacity.
The heat sustain by an object is given as;
H = m× c× (T2-T1)
Where H is heat transferred
m is mass of substance
T2-T1 is the temperature change from starting to final temperature T2.
c- is the specific heat capacity of ice .
Note : specific heat capacity is an intrinsic capacity of a substance which is the energy substained on a unit mass of a substance on a unit temperature change.
Hence ; 35= 1× c× ( T2-(-25))
35= c× ( T2+25)
35 =2.108×( T2+25)
( T2+25)= 35/2.108= 16.60°{ approximated to 2 decimal place}
T2= 16.60-25= -8.40°C
C, specific heat capacity of ice is =2.108 kJ/kgK{you can google that}
Answer:
Spring's displacement, x = -0.04 meters.
Explanation:
Let the spring's displacement be x.
Given the following data;
Mass of each shrew, m = 2.0 g to kilograms = 2/1000 = 0.002 kg
Number of shrews, n = 49
Spring constant, k = 24 N/m
We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8 m/s².
To find the spring's displacement;
At equilibrium position:
Fnet = Felastic + Fg = 0
But, Felastic = -kx
Total mass, Mt = nm
Fg = -Mt = -nmg
-kx -nmg = 0
Rearranging, we have;
kx = -nmg
Making x the subject of formula, we have;

Substituting into the formula, we have;


x = -0.04 m
Therefore, the spring's displacement is -0.04 meters.
