Every electrical outlet in your house, and every device or appliance that's
plugged into an outlet, are all in parallel. It's also most likely that all of yours
are in parallel with all the outlets, devices, and appliances in the homes or
apartments of a few of your neighbors.

The only things in your home that are connected in series are the switches
that turn things on and off.

A 234.0 g piece of lead is heated to 86.0oC and then dropped into a calorimeter containing 611.0 g of water that initally is at

Vaselesa [24]

Answer: $24.70 ^{\circ}C$

Explanation:

Given

mass of lead piece $m_l=234 gm\approx 0.234 kg$

mass of water in calorimeter $m_w=611 gm\approx 0.611 kg$

Initial temperature of water $T_w=24^{\circ}C$

Initial temperature of lead piece $T_l=24^{\circ}C$

we know heat capacity of lead and water are $125.604 J/kg-k$ and $4.184 kJ/kg-k$ respectively

Let us take $T ^{\circ}C$ be the final temperature of the system

Conserving energy

heat lost by lead=heat gained by water

$m_lc_l(T_l-T)=m_wc_w(T-T_w)$

$0.234\times 125.604(86-T)=0.611\times 4.184\times 1000(T-24)$

$86-T=\frac{0.611\times 4.184\times 1000}{29.391}(T-24)$

$86-T=86.97T-2087.49$

$T=\frac{2173.491}{87.97}=24.70^{\circ}C$

Which type of energy is stored in a capacitor? electric potential energy chemical energy gravitational energy heat energy

Tom [10]

Energy stored in a capacitor is Electric Potential Energy. Capacitor is device used for storing energy. The work done to charge is a capacitor is stored in it in the form of Electrical potential energy. Electrical potential energy is defined as capacity to do work due to the position change. For example, we know fans have capacitor installed in it. When we turn off the fan, it continue moving using the electrical energy stored in the capacitor.
