Answer:

(e) 3.2

Explanation:

We are given that vector C and D.

Let R be the magnitude of C+D.

According to question

R=3D

We have to find the ratio of the magnitude of C to that of D.

By using right triangle property

C^2=R^2+D^2

C^2=(3D)^2+D^2

C^2=9D^2+D^2

C^2=10D^2

C=\sqrt{10D^2}=3.2D

\frac{C}{D}=3.2

Hence, the ratio of the magnitude of C to that of D=3.2

(e) 3.2

Recall specific heat of water is 4186 j/kg/C. Find the specific heat of sample.
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Shown by explanation;

Explanation:

The heat of the sample = mass ×specific heat capacity of the sample × temperature change(∆T)

Assumption;I assume the mass of the samples are : 109g and 192g

∆T= 30.1-21=8.9°c.

The heat of the samples are for 109g are:

0.109 × 4186 × 8.9 =4060.84J

For 0.192g are;

∆T= 67-30.1-=36.9°c

0.192 × 4186×36.9=29656.97J

The table below shows the right ascensions of two stars at a location.
noname [10]
Star 1 - 4 hours right ascension
 Star 2 - 3 hours right ascension
 Subtracting hours right ascension
 4 hours right ascension - 3 hours right ascension = 1 hours right ascension.
Thus,
 star 1 will rise 1 hour before star 2

You just calibrated a constant volume gas thermometer. The pressure of the gas inside the thermometer is 286.0 kPa when the ther
diamong [38]

Answer:

T_{2} = 606.69 K

Explanation:

In that the gas thermometer is a constant volume, it is satisfied that:

\frac{P_{1} }{T_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} }  

How the boiling water is under regular atmospheric pressure, then

T_{1} = 373 .15 K

Thus

\frac{286000}{373.15} = \frac{465000}{T_{2} }

T_{2} = 606.69 K
