To calculate the specific heat capacity of an object or substance, we can use the formula

c = E / m△T

Where
c as the specific heat capacity,
E as the energy applied (assume no heat loss to surroundings),
m as mass and
△T as the energy change.

Now just substitute the numbers given into the equation.

c = 2000 / 2 x 5
c = 2000/ 10
c = 200

Therefore we can conclude that the specific heat capacity of the block is 200 Jkg^-1°C^-1

<span>9000 Pascals Looking on the internet, it appears that a human can only suck about 3 feet of water. So let's convert that measurement into a few more convenient units. cmH2O = 36 * 2.54 = 91.44 cmH2O cmHg = 91.44 * 0.73555912101486 = 67.26 mmHg Pascal = 91.44 * 98.0665 = 8967 Pascals PSI = 91.44 * 0.0142233 = 1.3 psi Since we're dealing with science and the metric system is the most common system used in science, I'd recommend an answer of 9000 Pascals.</span>

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

The fundamental frequency of can is 2.7 kHz.                          

Explanation:

Given that,

A typical length for the auditory canal in an adult is about 3.1 cm, l = 3.1 cm

The speed of sound is, v = 336 m/s

We need to find the fundamental frequency of the canal. For a tube open at only one end, the fundamental frequency is given by :

f=\dfrac{v}{4l}\\\\f=\dfrac{336}{4\times 3.1\times 10^{-2}}\\\\f=2709.67\ Hz\\\\f=2.7\ kHz

So, the fundamental frequency of can is 2.7 kHz. Hence, this is the required solution.
