Can anyone help with these questions please

Earth has four motions in its movement through space, rotation, revolution, processional, and solar motion, which two are of any

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

rotation and revolution

Explanation:

out of the four motions the earth is subject to which are: rotation about its axis, revolution around the Sun, processional motion (a slow conical movement ) of the axis, and the solar motion (this refers to the

movement of the whole solar system with space), only two are of any

importance to meteorology as this two causes changes in weather and seasons. The first motion is rotation. Earth rotates on its axis

once every 24 hours. One-half of the Earth’s surface is

therefore facing the Sun at all times. The second motion of Earth is its revolution around the Sun. The revolution around the Sun and the earth tilt on its axis are responsible for changes in seasons. The Earth

makes one complete revolution around the Sun in

approximately 365 1/4 days.

a hot piece of copper is placed in an insulated cup. what is the final temperature of the water and copper?

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Option C. 30°C.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of water (Mw) = 0.5 Kg

Specific heat capacity of water (Cw) = 4.18 KJ/Kg°C

Initial temperature of water (Tw1) =

22°C

Change in temperature (ΔT) = T2 – Tw1 = T2 – 22°C

Mass of copper (Mc) = 0.5 Kg

Specific heat capacity of copper (Cc) = 0.386 KJ/kg°C

Initial temperature of copper (Tc1) = 115°C

Change in temperature (ΔT) = T2 – Tc1 = T2 – 115°C

Final temperature (T2) =..?

Note: Both the water and the piece copper will have the same final temperature and the heat will be zero since the water will cool the piece of copper.

Thus, we can determine the final temperature of the water and copper as follow:

Q = MwCwΔT + McCcΔT

0 = 0.5 x 4.18 x (T2 – 22) + 0.5 x 0.386 x (T2 – 115)

0 = 2.09 (T2 – 22) + 0.193 (T2 – 115)

0 = 2.09T2 – 45.98 + 0.193T2 – 22.195

Collect like terms

2.09T2 + 0.193T2 = 45.98 + 22.195

2.283T2 = 68.175

Divide both side by the coefficient of T2 i.e 2.283

T2 = 68.175/2.283

T2 = 29.8 ≈ 30°C

Therefore, the final temperature of water and copper is 30°C.
