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

levacccp [35]

0.77 m/s2 directed 35° south of west

net force = (-17,-12)

net force = mass * acceleration

(-17,-12) = 27 * (x-acceleration,y-acceleration)

(x-acceleration,y-acceleration) = (-17/27,-12/27) = (-0.629629629..., -0.444...)

angle of acceleration = tan^-1 (-0.444.../-0.629629...) = 35.21759 degrees below negative x-axis.

magnitude of acceleration = sqrt((-0.629629...)^2 + (-0.444...)^2) = 0.77069 (5dp)
