Answer:

393.399 J/kg.°C

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity: This is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance through a degree rise in temperature.

Heat lost by the brass = heat gained by water

CM(t₁-t₃) = cm(t₃-t₂)........................ Equation 1

Where C = specific heat capacity of the brass, M = mass of the brass, t₁ = initial temperature of the brass, t₂ = initial temperature of water, t₃ = temperature of the mixture.

Making C the subject of the equation

C = cm(t₃-t₂)/M(t₁-t₃)............................... Equation 2

Given: M = 0.59 kg, m = 2.8 kg, t₁ = 98 °C, t₂ = 5.0 °C, t₃ = 6.8 °C

Constant: c = 4200 J/kg.°C

Substitute into equation 2,

C = 2.8×4200(6.8-5.0)/0.59(98-6.8)

C = 21168/53.808

C = 393.399 J/kg.°C

Thus the specific heat capacity of the brass = 393.399 J/kg.°C

Calculate the speed for a car that went a distance of 125 meters in 2 seconds time.
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

<h2>62.5 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The speed of the car can be found by using the formula

s =  \frac{d}{t} \\

d is the distance

t is the time

From the question we have

s =  \frac{125}{2}  = 62.5 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>62.5 m/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

A light beam is directed parallel to the axis of a hollow cylindrical tube. When the tube contains only air, the light takes 8.7
monitta

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity of light in a medium of refractive index V = V₀ / μ

V₀  is velocity of light in air and μ is refractive index of light.

time to travel in tube with air =  length of tube / velocity of light

8.72 ns = L / V₀  L is length of tube .

time to travel in tube with jelly =  length of tube / velocity of light

8.72+ 1.82  = L / V  L is length of tube .

10.54 ns = L / V

dividing the equations

10.54 / 8.72 = V₀  / V

10.54 / 8.72 =   μ

1.21 =  μ

refractive index of jelly = 1.21 .

Think about the electricity sent to your home from a power plant. How does the voltage of the electricity that leaves the plant
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

C) High voltage to low voltage

Explanation:

At a power plant, there is a production of electricity at a high voltage compared to the voltage provided to our home.

Voltage of about 12 KV is produced by power plant which is then converted into about 400 KV or greater (depending upon the countries) to transfer electricity from power plant to city Grid station using Step-up transformer. At City Grid station, Step-down transformer is used to convert high voltage (about 400 KV) to low voltage (about 13 KV) to transfer electricity from grid station to the city. Then this low voltage (about 13 KV) again converted to 220 V using Step-down transformer for household usage. So, overall  about 12 KV voltage at power plant is converted into 220 V for household usage using step-up and step-down transformer at different stages.

An ac series circuit contains a 20 ohm resistor, a capacitor of 0.75 micro farad, and an inductor of 120 mH. What frequency shou
Blababa [14]

Answer:

530.5 Hz

Explanation:

Given :

C=0.75 micro

L=120 mH

Reactance capacitor can be determined by

=\frac{1}{ wC}

where c =capacitor

= \frac{1}{w*0.75*10^-6}

Reactance inductor can be determined by

= w*L\\ = w*120*10^-3

As they are in series so ,

\frac{1}{w*0.75*10^-6}  =w*120*10^-3

On solving these value we get

w=3333.33

As we know that

f = \frac{w}{2*3.14} =

530.5 Hz
