An insulating cup contains 200 grams of water at 25 ∘C. Some ice cubes at 0 ∘C is placed in the water. The system comes to equil
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The amount of ice added in gram is 32.77g

Explanation:

This problem bothers on the heat capacity of materials

Given data

Mass of water Mw= 200g

Temperature of water θw= 25°c

Temperature of ice θice= 0°c

Equilibrium Temperature θe= 12°c

Mass of ice Mi=???

The specific heat of ice Ci= 2090 J/(kg ∘C)

specific heat of water Cw = 4186 J/(kg ∘C)

latent heat of the ice to water transition Li= 3.33 x10^5 J/kg

heat heat loss by water = heat gained by ice

N/B let us understand something, heat gained by ice is in two phases

Heat require to melt ice at 0°C to water at 0°C

And the heat required to take water from 0°C to equilibrium temperature

Hence

MwCwΔθ=MiLi +MiCiΔθ

Substituting our data we have

200*4186*(25-12)=Mi*3.3x10^5+

Mi*2090(12-0)

837200*13=Mi*3.3x10^5+Mi*2090

10883600=332090Mi

Mi=10883600/332090

Mi= 32.77g

A freshly prepared sample of radioactive isotope has an activity of 10 mCi. After 4 hours, its activity is 8 mCi. Find: (a) the
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

(a). The decay constant is 1.55\times10^{-5}\ s^{-1}

The half life is 11.3 hr.

(b). The value of N₀ is 2.38\times10^{11}\ nuclei

(c). The sample's activity is 1.87 mCi.

Explanation:

Given that,

Activity R_{0}=10\ mCi

Time t_{1}=4\ hours

Activity R= 8 mCi

(a). We need to calculate the decay constant

Using formula of activity

R=R_{0}e^{-\lambda t}

\lambda=\dfrac{1}{t}ln(\dfrac{R_{0}}{R})

Put the value into the formula

\lambda=\dfrac{1}{4\times3600}ln(\dfrac{10}{8})

\lambda=0.0000154\ s^{-1}

\lambda=1.55\times10^{-5}\ s^{-1}

We need to calculate the half life

Using formula of half life

T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=\dfrac{ln(2)}{\lambda}

Put the value into the formula

T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=\dfrac{ln(2)}{1.55\times10^{-5}}

T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=44.719\times10^{3}\ s

T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=11.3\ hr

(b). We need to calculate the value of N₀

Using formula of N_{0}

N_{0}=\dfrac{3.70\times10^{6}}{\lambda}

Put the value into the formula

N_{0}=\dfrac{3.70\times10^{6}}{1.55\times10^{-5}}

N_{0}=2.38\times10^{11}\ nuclei

(c). We need to calculate the sample's activity

Using formula of activity

R=R_{0}e^{-\lambda\times t}

Put the value intyo the formula

R=10e^{-(1.55\times10^{-5}\times30\times3600)}

R=1.87\ mCi

Hence, (a). The decay constant is 1.55\times10^{-5}\ s^{-1}

The half life is 11.3 hr.

(b). The value of N₀ is 2.38\times10^{11}\ nuclei

(c). The sample's activity is 1.87 mCi.

A small block with a mass of 0.0600 kg is attached to a cord passing through a hole in a frictionless, horizontal surface (Figur
pogonyaev

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that mass of block=0.0600 kg

Initial speed of block=0.63 m/s

Distance of block  from the hole when the block is revolved=0.47 m

Final speed=3.29 m/s

Distance of block  from the hole when the block is revolved=9\times 10^{-2}m

a.We have to find the tension in the cord in the original situation when the block has speed =v_0=0.63 m/s

T=\frac{mv^2}{r}

Because tension is equal to centripetal force

Substitute the values

T=\frac{0.06\times (0.63)^2}{0.47}=0.05 N

b.v=3.29 m/s

T=\frac{mv^2}{r}=\frac{0.06\times (3.29)^2}{0.09}=7.2 N

c.Work don=Final K.E-Initial K.E

W=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-v^2_0)

W=\frac{1}{2}(0.06)((3.29)^2-(0.63)^2)

W=0.31 J
