Answer:Experimental Question: How does the amount of a substance affect the rate at which temperature changes?

It depends on the conductivity of the material. If the shift is extreme, the temperature near the heating / cooling source will be similar to the temperature of the heating / cooling source and it will take time for the remainder of the material to rise to temperature. It will depend on the conductivity of the material.

Hypothes is:

Materials List:

• digital stopwatch

• 250ml beaker

• rubber bung

• thermometer

• bunsen burner

• tripod

• gauze

• retort stand and clamp

• goggles

Safety Procedures *:

1. Adult supervision is required.

2. Wear safety goggles, apron, and closed-toe shoes.

3. Do not wear baggy sleeves or dangling jewelry. Tie long hair back.

4. Use hot pads or oven mitts to handle hot objects.

5. Do not reach over a hot burner.

6. Do not leave the experiment unattended.

7. Clean up spills immediately.

8. Report any injuries to your Learning Coach or adult supervisor immediately

Experimental Procedures :

• Fill an empty beaker with exactly 150ml of water (check side-scale of beaker)

• Set up apparatus as shown above. Ensure the thermometer is about 2cm above the bottom of the beaker.

• Light the bunsen burner and put on a blue flame. Heat up the water.

• When the temperature on the thermometer has reached 90°C, immediately switch off the burner.

• Start the stopwatch and time for 5.0 minutes.

• Read the thermometer value at the 5.0 minute mark.

• Before repeating the experiment, check the level of water is still 150ml

Data Table:

Start Temperature of Water (°C) Temperature after 5min (°C) Drop in Temperature

(°C) Average Rate of Cooling x 1000 (°C/s)

80 70 10 17

75 66 9 15

70 62 8 13

65 59 6 10

60 55 5 8

Analysis:

Conclusions : There is a strong correlation between the average rate of cooling and the start temperature: the greater the start temperature, the faster the average rate of cooling.

A scientist directs monochromatic light toward a single slit in an opaque barrier. The light has a wavelength of 580 nm and the

vredina [299]

Answer:

a) 9.72 mm

b) 4.86 mm

Explanation:

wave length of light λ is 580 nm = 580 \times 10⁻⁹ m

Width of slit d = 0.215\times 10⁻³ m

Distance of screen D = 1.8 m.

Width of one fringe = $\frac{\lambda\times D}{d}$

Putting the values we get fringe width

= $\frac{580\times10^{-9}\times1.8}{.000315}$

=4.86 mm.

a) Width of central maxima = 2 times width of one fringe

= 2 times 4.86

=9.72 mm

b) width of each fringe except central fringe is same , no matter what the order is.Only brightness changes .

So width of either of the two first order bright fringe will be same and it will be

= 4.86 mm.

A 1.2 kg block of wood hangs motionless from strings. A 50 gram bullet, traveling horzontally, strikes the block and becomes emb

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass of block m1 = 1.2 kg

mass of bullet m2 = 50 gram = 0.05 kg

combine speed V= 8.0 m/s

to find out

speed of the bullet before it hit the block

solution

we will apply here conservation of momentum that is

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V .............1

here m1 is mass of block and m2 is mass of bullet and v1 is initial speed of block i.e 0 and v2 is initial speed of bullet and M is combine mass of block and bullet and V is combine speed of block and bullet

put all value in equation 1

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V

1.2 × 0 + 0.05 × v2 = ( 1.2 + 0.05 ) × 8

solve it we get

v2 = 200 m/s

so speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

How do we prove the earth is round? What evidence do we have and reasoning?

Jlenok [28]

Answer: Go to the harbor. When a ship sails off toward the horizon, it doesn't just get smaller and smaller until it's not visible anymore. Instead, the hull seems to sink below the horizon first, then the mast. When ships return from sea, the sequence is reversed: First the mast, then the hull, seem to rise over the horizon.

Climbing to a high point will allow you to be able to see farther if you go higher. If the Earth was flat, you'd be able to see the same distance no matter your elevation

Howler monkeys are the loudest land animal on the planet and a single one can be heard from as far as 2.6 km away.

Komok [63]

Answer:

Between 128dB and 149dB

Explanation:

When howling the Howler monkies has a volume between 128db and 149dB. This is as a result of them having a large hyoid bone in the neck.

A hotel elevator ascends 200m with maximum speed of 5m/s. Its acceleration and deceleration both have a magnitude of 1.0m/s2. Pa

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

45 s .

Explanation:

The accelerator will first accelerate , then move with uniform velocity and at last it will decelerate to rest .

displacement s = ?

acceleration a = 1 m /s²

Final speed v = 5 m/s

initial speed u = 0

v² = u² + 2as

5² = 0 + 2 x 1 x s

s = 12.5 m

B) Let time of acceleration or deceleration be t

v = u + a t

5 = 0 + 1 t

t = 5 s

Similarly displacement during deceleration = 12.5 m

Total distance during uniform motion = 200 - ( 12.5 + 12.5 ) = 175 m .

velocity of uniform motion = 5 m /s

time during which there was uniform velocity = 175 / 5 = 35 s

Total time = 5 + 35 + 5 = 45 s .
