Answer:

1.48 kg

Explanation:

The conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be converted from one form to another. Hence, in this case, energy lost by the copper should equal to the energy gained by the lead. Hence,

Energy Lost by Copper = Energy Gained by Lead

mcT = <em>mcT </em>(Bolded is for copper, italicised is for lead)

m(387)(88.4 - 55.9) = <em>(3.50)(128)(55.9 - 14.4)</em>

12577.5m = <em>18592</em>

<em>              </em><u>m = 1.48 kg (3 sf)</u>

<em>(Note: Thermal energy can be calculated using </em><em>Q = mcT</em><em> where </em><em>m</em><em> is the </em><em>mass</em><em>, </em><em>c</em><em> is the </em><em>specific heat capacity</em><em> and </em><em>T</em><em> is the </em><em>change in temperature</em><em>)</em>

When the time of day for a certain ship at sea is 12 noon, the time of day at the prime meridian (0 longitude0 is 5 pm. what is
azamat

A).  The sun is highest in London, but will not pass the ship
for another 5 hours.

Since the sun moves from east to west, the ship must be
5 hours west of Greenwich.

Each hour of sun motion is 15° of longitude. 
The ship's longitude is (5 x 15°) = 75° West. 

The ship may be sailing down Columbia Boulevard
in Maple Shade, New Jersey.


B).  The latitude at Buffalo's City Hall is 42.887° North.

Polaris is always within about 2/3 of a degree of that angle
above the northern horizon, when viewed from City Hall.

Choice  2)  is the most appropriate.
