The final temperature of the mixture is about 28.8°C

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Specific Heat Capacity is the amount of energy needed to raise temperature of 1 kg body for 1°C.

\large {\boxed{Q = m \times c \times \Delta t} }

<em>Q = Energy ( Joule )</em>

<em>m = Mass ( kg ) </em>

<em>c = Specific Heat Capacity ( J / kg°C ) </em>

<em>Δt = Change In Temperature ( °C )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

initial temperature of water = t₁ = 20.9°C

specific heat capacity of water = c = 4.186 J/gK

mass of copper = m₁ = 155.0 g

mass of water = m₂ = 250.0 g

initial temperature of copper = t₁' = 168°C

specific heat capacity of copper = c' = 0.385 J/gK

<u>Asked:</u>

final temperature of the mixture = t = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

We can calculate the final temperature of the water by using Conservation of Energy as shown below:

Q_{lost} = Q_{gain}

m_1c'(t_1' - t) = m_2c(t - t_1)

155(0.385)(168 - t) = 250(4.186)(t - 20.9)

59.675(168 - t) = 1046.5(t - 20.9)

10025.4 - 59.675t = 1046.5t - 21871.85

t = ( 10025.4 + 21871.85 ) \div ( 59.675 + 1046.5 )

t \approx 28.8^oC

Note that
The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/(g -C)

Let x = the final equilibrium temperature.

Heat loss by the copper is
(155 g)*(0.385 J/(g -C))*(168 - x C) = 59.675(168 -x) J

Heat gain by the water is
(250 g)*(4.184 J/(g-C))*(x - 20.9 C) = 1046(x - 20.9) J

Because there is no heat loss to the surroundings, therefore
59.675(168 - x) = 1046(x - 20.9)
168 - x = 17.5283(x - 20.9)
18.5283x = 534.3415
x = 28.84 °C

Answer:  28.8 °°C  nearest tenth)

A projectile is launched from the ground at an angle of 60o above the horizontal. At what point in its trajectory does it have t
Elodia [21]

Answer:

It's constant everywhere in its trajectory.

Explanation:

the projectile was launched with an initial velocity, the only acceleration that is affecting the projectile's velocity is gravity.

The acceleration of gravity is practically equal everywhere on earth, so during its trajectory, we have to take into consideration only the acceleration because of gravity.

This is only correct because the projectile was launched with an initial velocity and it's not accelerating from rest and then falls.

Under the influence of its drive force, a snowmobile is moving at a constant velocity along a horizontal patch of snow. When the
balandron [24]

Answer:

a) Δx = 11.6 m

b) t = 3.9 s

Explanation:

a)

  • Since the snowmobile is moving at constant speed, and the drive force is 195 N, this means that thereis another force equal and opposite acting on it, according to Newton's 2nd Law, due to there is no acceleration present in the horizontal direction .
  • This force is just the force of kinetic friction, and is equal to -195 N (assuming the positive direction as the direction of the movement).
  • Once the drive force is shut off, the only force acting on the snowmobile remains the friction force.
  • According Newton's 2nd Law, this force is causing a negative acceleration (actually slowing down the snowmobile) that can be found as follows:

       a = \frac{F_{fr} }{m} = \frac{-195N}{128kg} = -1.5 m/s2 (1)

  • Assuming the friction force keeps constant, we can use the following kinematic equation in order to find the distance traveled under this acceleration before coming to an stop, as follows:

       v_{f} ^{2}  -v_{o} ^{2} = 2* a* \Delta x (2)

  • Taking into account that vf=0, replacing by the given (v₀) and a from (1), we can solve for Δx, as follows:

       \Delta x =- \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2*a} =- \frac{(5.90m/s)^{2}}{2*(-1.5m/s2)} = 11.6 m (3)

b)

  • We can find the time needed to come to an stop, applying the definition of acceleration, as follows:

       v_{f} = v_{o} + a*\Delta t (4)

  • Since we have already said that the snowmobile comes to an stop, this means that vf = 0.
  • Replacing a and v₀ as we did in (3), we can solve for Δt as follows:

       \Delta t = \frac{-v_{o} }{a} = \frac{-5.9m/s}{-1.5m/s2} = 3.9 s   (5)
