Let us say that Cp is the specific heat of the metal object. Then we do a heat balance (heat lost by metal = heat gained by water):

- 19g * Cp * (22degC – 96degC) = 75g * 4.184J/g degC * (22degC – 18degC)

<span>Cp = 0.893 J/g degC</span>

Answer;


Specific heat of the metal object  = 0.893 J/g°C  

Explanation and solution;

Quantity of heat = mass × specific heat capacity × change in temperature

ΔQ = Mcθ

Heat lost by the metal object = Heat gained by water

Heat lost by the metal object

= Mass of the metal object × specific heat of the metal ×change in temp

= 19 x specific heat ×( 22 - 96)

= 1406 × specific heat

Heat gained by water

= Mass of water × specific heat capacity of water × change in temperature

= 75 x 4.186 x ( 22 - 18)  

= 1255.8  J

Therefore;

= 1406 x specific heat = 1255.8  


Specific heat = 0.893 J/g°C

What is the number of waves that pass a fixed ping in a given amount of time?
Viktor [21]
The number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time is wave frequency. Wave frequency can be measured by counting the number of crests (high points) of waves that pass the fixed point in 1 second or some other time period. The higher the number is, the greater the frequency of the waves. :)

A baseball of mass 300-g is hit at a velocity of 40 m/s. If the ball is caught by the third baseman and the ball penetrates 2.0
OlgaM077 [116]

The force is -12,000 N

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the acceleration of the ball, by using the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where:

v = 0 is the final velocity of the baseball (it comes to rest)

u = 40 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m is the displacement of the ball

Solving for a,

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{0-40^2}{2(0.02)}=-40,000 m/s^2

Now we can calculate the average force exerted on the ball, by using Newton's second law:

F=ma

where

m = 300 g = 0.3 kg is the mass of the ball

a=-40,000 m/s^2 is the acceleration

Substituting,

F=(0.3)(-40,000)=-12,000 N

where the negative sign indicates that the direction of the force is opposite to the direction of motion of the ball.

On a vacation flight, you look out the window of the jet and wonder about the forces exerted on the window. Suppose the air outs
user100 [1]

Answer:

A) \Delta P =  14512.5 Pa = 14.512 kPa

B) F = 1632.65 N

Explanation:

Given details

outside air speed is given as v_2 = 150 m/s

since inside air is atmospheric , v_1 = 0 m/s

a) By using bernoulli equation between outside and inside of flight

P_1 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2 + \rho gh = P_2 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 + \rho gh

\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 - \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2

\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} \rho[ v_2^2 -v_1^2]

\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} 1.29 [ 150^2 - 0^2]

\Delta P =  14512.5 Pa = 14.512 kPa

b) force exerted on window

Area of window  = 25\times 45 = 1125 cm^2 = 0.1125 m^2

We know that force is given as

F = P\times A

F = 14512.5 \times 0.1125

F = 1632.65 N

Inductors in series. Two inductors L1 = 1.05 H and L2 = 2.07 H are connected in series and are separated by a large distance so
hodyreva [135]

The inductance of several inductors in series is the sum of all the individuals ... just like for resistors.

a). With 1.05H and 2.07H in series, the equivalent total inductance is <em>3.12H</em> , provided the inductors can't influence each other with their magnetic fields.

b). If you had 30 identical inductors in series, each with inductance of 3.03H, AND none of them could influence any other ones with their magnetic fields, their combined equivalent inductance would be

(30) · (3.03H) = <em>90.9 H</em> .
