<span>The Appalachian Mountains were formed when colliding tectonic plates folded and upthrust, mainly during the Permian Period and again in the Cretaceous Period. The folds and thrusts were then eroded and carved by wind, streams and glaciers. These erosive processes are ongoing, and the topography of the Appalachian Mountains continue to change. They have changed with the miles of land that are cleared of all vegetation and topsoil. In the 1970's coal miners literally blow away the top of a mountain to get to the coal underneath.</span>

a/ Compute the quantity of heat released by 25.0 g of steam initially at 100.0oC, when it is cooled to 34.0°C and by 25.0 g of w
Svetach [21]

Answer:

When put into steam

Explanation:

When a certain amount of steam at boiling temperature condenses (turning into water), the amount of heat released is

Q_1 = m\lambda_v

where in this case

m = 25.0 g = 0.025 kg is the mass of steam at 100.0°C

\lambda_v=2.256\cdot 10^6 J/kg is the latent heat of vaporization of water

So,

Q_1=(0.025)(2.256\cdot 10^6)=56400 J

Instead, the amount of heat released when the water at 100.0°C is cooled down to 34.0°C is given by

Q_2=mC\Delta T

where

m = 25.0 g = 0.025 kg is the mass of water

C=4.19\cdot 10^4 J/kg K is the specific heat of water

\Delta T=100-34=66^{\circ}C is the change in temperature

Therefore,

Q_2=(0.025)(4.19\cdot 10^3)(66)=6913 J

Since Q_1>Q_2, we can say that your hand will burn more in the first case.

What type of wavelength can we feel as heat and it is used to change the television channel with a remote?
enot [183]

Answer:

d)infrared waves

Explanation:

A remote control uses light waves just beyond the visible spectrum of light—infrared light waves—to change channels on your TV. This region of the spectrum is divided into near-, mid-, and far-infrared.

If the net work done on an object is zero, what can you determine about the object's kinetic energy?
jok3333 [9.3K]
The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "The object's kinetic energy remains the same." If the net work done on an object is zero, you  determine about the object's kinetic energy is that The object's kinetic energy remains the same.
