Answer:

0.240 J/(g^{\circ}C)

Explanation:

When an amount of energy Q is supplied to a sample of substance of mass m, the temperature of the substance increases by \Delta T according to the equation

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where

C_s is the specific heat capacity of the substance

In this problem, we have:

m = 55.0 g is the mass of the sample of silver

Q = 47.3 \cdot 4.184 = 197.9 J is the amount of energy supplied to the sample

\Delta T = 15^{\circ}C is the change in temperature of the sample

Solving the equation for C_s, we find the specific heat capacity of silver:

C_s = \frac{Q}{m \Delta T}=\frac{197.9}{(55.0)(15)}=0.240 J/(g^{\circ}C)

What makes gravity work
olganol [36]
Well we have two concepts of gravity now. In Newton's concept masses create forces between them. In Einstein's concept mass distorts time and space around it and makes masses move as if there are forces between them.
So whichever concept you prefer it's the presence of mass that creates gravity.

When a phase change of a substance occurs what happens to the temperature of the substance?
Maurinko [17]
<span>C) It does not change.  At the point where the phase of a substance changes, there is no temperature change but only the phase change. After this, the temperature then goes up or down depending on the type of phase change occurring. </span>

A) Millions of years of rain and wind
barxatty [35]

Answer:

B. Millions of years of high pressure and temperature.

  • Millions of years of high pressure and temperature the ancient forests turn into fossil fuels.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels were formed from the dead remains of living organisms millions of years ago. They were formed under high pressure and high temperature.

  • Coal : about 300 million years ago the earth had this forest in low lying wetland areas. Due to natural processes like flooding, these forest god buried under the soil. As more soil deposited over them, they were compressed. Under high pressure and high temperature, dead plants got slowly converted into coal.
  • Petroleum : Petroleum was formed from organisms living in the sea. As these organisms died, their bodies settled at the bottom of the sea and got covered with layers of soil and clay. Over millions of years, absence of air, high pressure and high temperature transformed the dead organisms into Petroleum.

Coal, Petroleum and natural gas are fossil fuels.

When running on its 11.4 V battery, a laptop computer uses 8.3 W. The computer can run on battery power for 8.5 h before the bat
AveGali [126]

Answer:

The laptop battery is capable of supplying 253980 J.

Explanation:

Given;

voltage of the battery, V = 11.4 V

power consumed by the laptop, P = 8.3 W

duration of the battery before depletion, t = 8.5 hours

Determine the amount of energy supplied by the laptop battery within 8.5 hours.

Energy, E = Power x time

Energy, E = 8.3 W x 8.5 h = 70.55 Wh

Energy, E in joules = 70.55 wh x 3600 s/h = 253980 J

Therefore, the amount of energy supplied by the laptop battery within 8.5 hours is 253980 J.

The Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies are members of the Local Group, a cluster of more than 50 galaxies spread across a spherica
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

2400 cm

Explanation:

The milky way has diameter of 100000 light years.

100000\ ly=24\ cm\\\Rightarrow 1\ ly=\frac{24}{100000}\ cm

The local group is the collection of galaxies which includes the milky way.

10 million light years is the diameter of the local group.

10\times 10^6\ ly=10\times 10^6\times \frac{24}{100000}\ cm\\\Rightarrow 10\times 10^6\ ly=2400\ cm

Hence, the diameter of the scale model of the local group would be 2400 cm
