Magnetism.  A compass uses the earth's magnetic field to point in the direction of the north geographic pole (south magnetic pole)  the N point on a compass points to the S magnetic pole which is the north geographic pole.  It's a little confusing, but it's just opposites.

Calculate the amount of heat liberated (in kj) from 411 g of mercury when it cools from 88.0°c to 12.0°c.
Katen [24]
You should note that the melting point of mercury is -38.83°C, while the boiling point is at 356.7°C. Then, that means that there is no latent heat involved here. We only compute for the sensible heat.

ΔH = mCpΔT
The Cp of mercury is 0.14 J/g·°C
Thus,
ΔH = (411 g)(0.14 J/g·°C)(88 - 12°C)
<em>ΔH = 4,373.04 J</em>

A 2kg object is tied to the end of a cord and whirled in a horizontal circle of radius 2 m. If the body makes three complete rev
Travka [436]

Answer:

a) 37.70 m/s

b)710.6 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that ;

Mass of object = 2 kg

Radius of the motion = 2m

Frequency of motion = 3 rev/s

The formula to apply is;

v= 2πrf   where v is linear speed

v = 2×π×2×3 =12π = 37.70 m/s

Centripetal acceleration is given as;

a= 4×π²×r×f²  

a= 4×π²×2×3²

a=710.6 m/s²

A closed container initially holds 50 monatomic Aparticles that have a combined energy of 480 units. After 100 monatomic B parti
Molodets [167]

Answer:

"8 units" is the appropriate answer.

Explanation:

According to the question,

Throughout equilibrium all particles are of equivalent intensity, and as such the integrated platform's total energy has been uniformly divided across all individuals.

Now,

The total energy will be:

= 480+720

= 1200 \ units

The total number of particles will be:

= 50+100

= 150

hence,

Energy of each A particle or each B particle will be:

= \frac{1200}{150}

= 8 \ units
