At an oceanside nuclear power plant, seawater is used as part of the cooling system. This raises the temperature of the water th

at is discharged back into the ocean. The amount that the water temperature is raised has a uniform distribution over the interval from 10° to 25° C. Suppose that a temperature increase of more than 18° C is considered to be potentially dangerous to the environment. What is the probability that at any point in time, the temperature increase is potentially dangerous?

As 390 g of hot milk cools in a mug it transfers 30 000 j of heat to the environment. whats is the temperature change of the mil
Fed [463]
You have to use the specific heat equation. 

Q = cmΔT where Q is the energy, c is specific heat, m is mass, and ΔT is change in temp.

So we can substitute our variables into the equation.

30000J = (390g)(3.9J*g/C)ΔT

Solving for ΔT, we get:

30000J/[(390g)*(3.9J*g/C) = ΔT

ΔT = 19.72386588C

I'm assuming the temperature is C, since it was not specified.

Hope this helps!

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

25.08m/s

Explanation:

mgh1 + 0.5mv1² = mgh2 + 0.5mv2²

h1 = 0m

v1 = u

h2 = 5m

v2 = 23m/s

putting the values into the formula above;

m(10)(0) + 0.5m(u²) = m(10)(5) + 0.5m(23²)

0 + 0.5mu² = 50m + 264.5m

0.5mu² = 314.5m

dividing through by m

0.5u² = 314.5

u² = 629

u = <u>2</u><u>5</u><u>.</u><u>0</u><u>8</u><u>m</u><u>/</u><u>s</u>

For the sound wave passing through regions of the ocean with varying density, longer wavelengths correspond to greater density of the water.

<h3>What is effect of density of a medium on wavelength of a wave?</h3>

The density of a medium is directly proportional to the wavelength of a wave.

The higher the density of the medium, the longer the wavelength of a wave.

Therefore, for a sound wave passing through regions of the ocean with varying density, longer wavelengths correspond to greater density of the water.
