Answer:
T = 20.84°C
Explanation:
From the law of conservation of energy:
Heat Lost by Copper Block = Heat Gained by Aluminum Calorimeter + Heat Gained by Water
where,
= mass of copper = 227 g
= mass of water = 844 g
= mass of aluminum = 155 g
= specific heat capacity of calorimeter = 385 J/kg.°C
= specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/kg.°C
= specific heat capacity of aluminum = 890 J/kg.°C
= change in temperature of copper = 283°C - T
= change in temperature of water = T - 14.6°C
= change in temperature of aluminum = T - 14.6°C
T = equilibrium temperature = ?
Therefore,
<u>T = 20.84°C</u>
Answer:
in a vacuum
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves are waves consisting of oscillations of electric and magnetic fields along a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave (transverse waves)
Electromagnetic waves are the only waves being able to travel in a vacuum, since they do not need a medium to propagate.
In a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed, called speed of light, whose value is:
The speed of the waves is actually reduced when they enter a medium, according to
where n is the refractive index of the medium.
Electromagnetic waves are also classified into 7 different types according to their wavelength. From shortest to longest wavelength, we have:
Gamma rays
X-rays
Ultraviolet
Visible light
Infrared
Microwaves
Radio waves
