A 5.45-g combustible sample is burned in a calorimeter. the heat generated changes the temperature of 555 g of water from 20.5°c

to 39.5°c. how much energy is released by the burning? the specific heat of water is 4.18 j/ (°c × g). 564 j 2,500 j 44,100 j 138,000 j

Given:
m = 555 g, the mass of water in the calorimeter
ΔT = 39.5 - 20.5 = 19 °C, temperature change
c = 4.18 J/(°C-g), specific heat of  water

Assume that all generated heat goes into heating the water.
Then the energy released is
Q = mcΔT
    = (555 g)*(4.18 J/(°C-g)*(19 °C)
    = 44,078.1 J
    = 44,100 J (approximately)

Answer:  44,100 J

During a blackout, you are trapped in a tall building. you want to call rescuers on your cell phone, but you can't remember whic
Gennadij [26K]

Let the height where we are trapped is H

now to find the time to reach the key at the bottom is given as

y = v_i t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

now we have

H = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

t = \sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}

now if the speed of sound is considered to be 340 m/s then time taken by the sound to reach at the top is given as

t = \frac{H}{340}

now the total time is given as

\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}} + \frac{H}{340} = 3.27

now by solving above equation we have

H = 48 m

now height of one floor is 3 m

so our position must be

N = \frac{48}{3} = 16 th \:floor
