Lisa [10]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

600

Explanation:

m=20

g=10m\s2

h=3m

we have

w=m*g*h

=20*10*3

=600joule

Calculate the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 200g of ice from-30°C 50C water. (C = .5 for ice, C 1 for water,
Nitella [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of heat needed is 29000 Cal.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The process involved in this problem are:

(1):H_2O(s)(-30^oC)\rightarrow H_2O(s)(0^oC)\\\\(2):H_2O(s)(0^oC)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(0^oC)\\\\(3):H_2O(l)(0^oC)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(50^oC)

Now, we calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed in all the processes.

  • <u>For process 1:</u>

q_1=mC_{p,s}\times (T_2-T_1)

where,

q_1 = amount of heat absorbed = ?

m = mass of ice = 200 g

T_2 = final temperature = 0^oC

T_1 = initial temperature = -30^oC

Putting all the values in above equation, we get:

q_1=200g\times 0.5Cal/g^oC\times (0-(-30))^oC=3000Cal

  • <u>For process 2:</u>

q_2=m\times L_f

where,

q_1 = amount of heat absorbed = ?

m = mass of water or ice = 200 g

L_f = latent heat of fusion = 80 Cal/g

Putting all the values in above equation, we get:

q_2=200g\times 80Cal/g=16000Cal

  • <u>For process 3:</u>

q_3=m\times C_{p,l}\times (T_{2}-T_{1})

where,

q_3 = amount of heat absorbed = ?

m = mass of water = 200 g

T_2 = final temperature = 50^oC

T_1 = initial temperature = 0^oC

Putting all the values in above equation, we get:

q_3=200g\times 1Cal/g^oC\times (50-0)^oC=10000Cal

Calculating the total heat absorbed, we get:

Q=q_1+q_2+q_3

Q=3000+16000+10000=29000Cal

Hence, the amount of heat needed is 29000 Cal.

When we breathe, we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide plus water vapor. Which likely has more mass, the air that we inhale
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

If the same volume of air is inhaled and exhaled, the air we breathe out normally weighs more than the air we breathe in.

Since the output from the body normally exceeds the input, breathing leads to weight loss.

Explanation:

If equal volumes of gas is inhaled and exhaled, the exhaled gas is heavier.

The inhaled gas contains Oxygen and majorly Nitrogen.

The exhaled gas contains CO₂, H₂O and a very large fraction of the unused inhaled air that goes into the lungs.

So, basically, the body exchanges O₂ with CO₂ and H₂O (and some other unwanted gases in the body) in a composition that CO₂, the heavier gas of the ones mentioned here, is prominent.

So, because the mass leaving the body is more than the mass entering, breathing leads to a loss of weight. This is one of the reasons why we need food for sustenance. Breathing alone will wear one out.

What is Light ?<br> What are 7 spectrums of Light ?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Light or visible light is electromagnetic radiation within the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is perceived by the human eye. Visible light is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400–700 nanometres, between the infrared and the ultraviolet.

Here are the 7 from shortest to longest wavelength.

Violet - shortest wavelength, around 400-420 nanometers with highest frequency.  

Indigo - 420 - 440 nm.

Blue - 440 - 490 nm.

Green - 490 - 570 nm.

Yellow - 570 - 585 nm.

Orange - 585 - 620 nm.

Red - longest wavelength, at around 620 - 780 nanometers with lowest frequency.

A plane is flying a circular path at a speed of 55.0 m/ s, with a radius of 18.3 m. The centripetal force needed to maintain thi
Nadusha1986 [10]

The plane has a centripetal acceleration <em>a</em> of

<em>a</em> = <em>v</em> ²/<em>r</em>

where <em>v</em> is the plane's tangential speed and <em>r</em> is the radius of the circle. By Newton's second law,

<em>F</em> = <em>mv</em> ²/<em>r</em>

Solve for the mass <em>m</em> :

<em>m</em> = <em>Fr</em>/<em>v</em> ² = (3000 N) (18.3 m) / (55.0 m/s)² ≈ 18.1 kg
