a piece of food is burned in a calorimeter that contains 200.0g of water. If the temperature of the water rose from 65.0°C to 83

.0°C, how much heat energy in joules was contained in the food? Specific heat if water is 4.184 j/g°C.

Answer: 15062.4 Joules

Explanation:

The quantity of heat energy (Q) required to heat a substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since,

Q = ?

Mass of food = 200.0g

C = 4.184 j/g°C

Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)

= 83.0°C - 65.0°C = 18°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 200.0g x 4.184 j/g°C x 18°C

Q = 15062.4 J

Thus, 15062.4 joules of heat energy was contained in the food.

If the speed of a sound wave increases what other property of the wave must also increase when all other wave properties are hel
kati45 [8]
<h2>Frequency</h2>

Explanation:

Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time.

Wave speed is the speed at which a wave travels.

Let the wave speed be v

Let the wave frequency be f

Let the wave length be l

The wave speed,frequency and wave length are related by the equation v=f\times l.

When v increases,f increases on the other side to maintain equality when no other property is changing.

Why is the air in a jet aircraft flying at high altitudes pressurized? *
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Aircraft cabins are therefore pressurized to maintained a similar pressure as that experienced at sea level to ensure normal breathing of passengers.

Explanation:

-Air becomes increasingly thinner with increasing altitudes.

-As such, oxygen becomes limited at higher altitudes and makes it difficult or almost impossible to breath  a condition called hypoxia.

-Aircraft cabins are therefore pressurized to maintained a similar pressure as that experienced at sea level to ensure normal breathing of passengers.
