Answer:

Mass on the moon is 5.1 kg.

Explanation:

Given mass on earth = 5.1 kg

acceleration due to gravity on moon = 1.6 ms⁻².

The mass on the moon does not change because mass is the quantity of matter in the body regardless of its volume or of any forces acting on it.

Whereas the weight of the object changed.

Weight is the the force exerted on a body which is related to mass and expressed as W = mg.

W = weight of object m = mass of object and g = gravitational force

$So\ in\ this\ case\ W\ =1.6\times\ 5.1\ =8.16N$

N stands for newton unit of weight.

Thus mass of the object on moon is same as on earth which is 5.1 kg.

An iron block of mass 18 kg is heated from 285 K to 318 K. If 267.3 kJ is required, what is the specific heat of iron? A. 450.00

valkas [14]

Answer:

Option A. 450.00

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) m = 18 kg

b) T₁ = 285 K

c) T₂ = 318 K

d) Q = 267.3 kJ

e) S = ?

2) Principles and equations

The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat energy absorbed to increase the temperature of certain amount (gram, kg, or moles, depending on the definition or units) of the substance in 1 ° C or 1 K.

The mathematical relation between the specific heat and the heat energy absorbed is:

Q = m × S × ΔT

Where,

Q is the heat absorbed,
S is the specific heat, and
ΔT is the temperature increase (T₂ - T₁)

3) Solution:

a) Substitute the data into the equation:

267.3 kJ = 18 kg × S × (318 K - 285 K)

b) Solve for S and compute:

S = 267.3 kJ / (18 kg × 33 K) = 0.45 kJ / (Kg . K)

The options have not units, but I notice that the first answer is 1,000 times the answer I obtained, so I will make a conversion of units.

c) Convert to J /( kg . k):

0.45 kJ / (Kg . K) × 1,000 J / kJ = 450 J / (kg . K)

Now we can see that the option A is is the answer, assuming the units.
