Mass = 0.201kg
Energy = 15J
temperature change = 10C

Energy(E) = mass(m) × specific heat capacity(c) × temperature change(θ)

we can rearrange this to make specific heat capacity the subject

c =\frac{E}{m\theta}

c =\frac{15}{2.01}
c =7.46268657

Answer:

The specific heat of the object is 0.0074 J/(g °C)

Explanation:

Data

mass, m = 201 g

Heat, Q = 15 J

temperature change, ΔT = 10 °C

specific heat, cp = ?

The equation that relates these variables is:

Q = m*cp*ΔT

Solving for specific heat we get:

cp = Q/(m*ΔT)

Replacing with data (units are ommited):

cp = 15/(201*10)

cp = 0.0074 J/(g °C)

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between frequency and wavelength?
Len [333]
The relationship between the frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the equation:

v=λf, where v is the velocity of the wave, λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency. 

If we divide the equation by f we get:

λ=v/f

From here we see that the wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional. So as the frequency increases the wavelength decreases. 

So the second statement is true: As the frequency of a wave increases, the shorter the wavelength is.

A 438kg car is accelerating east at 2.55m/s^2. What is the total force acting east on the car
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

<h2>1116.9 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 438 × 2.55

We have the final answer as

<h3>1116.9 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

A gas in a cylinder expands from a volume of 0.110 m³ to 0.320 m³. heat flows into the gas just rapidly enough to keep the press
Elden [556K]

80000 Joule is the change in the internal energy of the gas.

<h3>In Thermodynamics, work done by the gas during expansion at constant pressure:</h3>

ΔW = -pdV

ΔW = -pd (V₂ -V₁)

ΔW = - 1.65×10⁵ pa (0.320m³ - 0.110m³)

     = - 0.35×10⁵ pa.m³

     = - 35000 (N/m³)(m³)

     = -35000 Nm

ΔW = -35000 Joule

Therefore, work done by the system = -35000 Joule

<h3>Change in the internal energy of the gas,</h3>

ΔV = ΔQ + ΔW

Given:

ΔQ = 1.15×10⁵ Joule

ΔW = -35000 Joule

ΔU = 1.15×10⁵ Joule - 35000 Joule

      = 80000 Joule.

Therefore, the change in the internal energy of the gas= 80000 Joule.
