How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of 8g of water by 20oC?

1 answer:

7 0

The following information are given in the question:
Mass, M = 8 g
Temperature, T = 20 degree Celsius
Specific heat of water [this value is a constant] C = 1 c/gc
Heat, Q = ?
The formula for calculating the amount of heat required is given below:
Q = MCT = 8 * 1 * 20 = 160
Therefore, Q = 160 cal.

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Hypermetropia (better known as Farsighted- this is why nearby objects seem blurry for him)

2) In such instances, image are typically formed farther from the near point

3) Such defects are quite common so there are common procedures such as using convex lens which can restore the sight to normal.

Why are collisions between galaxies more likely than collisions between stars within a galaxy?

KatRina [158]

Answer:

stars share a gravitational force with the galaxy while nearby galaxies do not share a gravitational field.

Explanation:

stars will not collide because they are bound by a gravitational orbit around the galaxy

To develop the problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations for the description of the position, speed and acceleration.

In turn, we will resort to the application of Newton's second law.

PART A) For the first part we look for the time, in a constant acceleration, knowing the speeds and the displacement therefore we know that,

$X_f = X_i +\frac{1}{2}(V_i+V_f)t$

Where,

X = Desplazamiento

V = Velocity

t = Time

In this case there is no initial displacement or initial velocity, therefore

$X_f = \frac{1}{2} (V_i+V_f)t$

Clearing for time,

$t = \frac{2X_f}{(V_i+V_f)}$

$t = \frac{2*1.2}{24+0}$

$t = 0.1s$

PART B) This is a question about the impulse of bodies, where we turn to Newton's second law, because:

F = ma

Where,

m=mass

a = acceleration

Acceleration can also be written as,

$a= \frac{\Delta V}{t}$

Then

$F = m\frac{\Delta V}{t}$

$F = m\frac{V_f-V_i}{t}$

$F = m\frac{-V_i}{t}$

$F = \frac{(1600kg)(-24m/s)}{(0.1s)}$

$F = -384000N$

Negative symbol is because the force is opposite of the direction of moton.

PART C) Acceleration through kinematics equation is defined as

$V_f^2=V_i^2-2ax$

$0 = (24m/s)^2-2*a(1.2m)$

$a = \frac{(24m/s)^2}{1.2m}$

$a=480m/s^2$

The gravity is equal to 0.8, then the acceleration is

$a = 480*\frac{g}{9.8}$

$a = 53.3g$

How do you know which magnitude is higher or how do you compare them?

Paul [167]

Magnitudes are measured by intensity so a 3.4 earthquake is much less stronger than a 4.5 earthquake it’s very literally when measuring them the higher the number the stronger it is
