Velocity, because velocity is speed and direction(speed for the number, and well, direction for the direction)

Its called a vector quanty ie; speed is scalar but velocity is vector quantity

How much heat is required to convert 5.53 g of ice at -12.0 ∘C to water at 24.0 ∘C? (The heat capacity of ice is 2.09 J/(g⋅∘C),

fredd [130]

Answer:

2.55 × 10³ J =2.55 kJ

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of ice = 37.8 J / mol °C

Specific heat capacity of water = 76.0 J/ mol °C

Ice at -12 °C is converted to ice at 0 °C by absorbing heat Q₁

Ice at 0°C melts to water at 0 °C. Let Heat absorbed during this phase change be Q₂ .

Let heat absorbed to raise the temperature of water from 0 C to 24°C be Q₃ .

Total heat = Q = Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃

Q₁ = (37.8 j/mol C )(5.53 g /18.01532 g/ mol )( 0-(-12)) = 139.23749 j

Q₂ =(5.53 g/18.01532 g H₂O / mol ) (6.02 x10³ j) = 1847.905 j

Q₃ = (76 j/mol C) ( (5.53 g/18.01532 g H₂O / mol )(24-0) = 559.8968 j

Total Heat required = Q = 139.23749 j + 1847.905 j + 559.8968 j

= 2547.039 j = 2.55 × 10³ J =2.55 kJ

(a) what is the system of interest if the acceleration of the child in the wagon is to be calculated? (select all that apply.)

Leno4ka [110]

since child is moving along with the wagon and we need to find the acceleration of child inside that wagon then in this case the system of interest must be child + wagon

System of interest will be the system that is used to find the force or acceleration using Newton's law

Here we have to assume that system on which if we will calculate the forces then the net value of force on that system will help to calculate the unknown quantities

So here our system will be boy + wagon

Refrigerant-134a enters a compressor at 180 kPa as a saturated vapor with a flow rate of 0.35 m3/min and leaves at 900 kPa. The

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

52.5°C

Explanation:

The final enthalpy is determined from energy balance where initial enthalpy and specific volume are obtained from A-12 for the given pressure and state

mh1 + W = mh2

h2 = h1 + W/m

h1 + Wα1/V1

242.9 kJ/kg + 2.35.0.11049kJ/ 0.35/60kg

=287.4 kJ/kg

From the final enthalpy and pressure the final temperature is obtained A-13 using interpolation

i.e T2 = T1 + T2 -T1/h2 -h1(h2 - h1)

= 50°C + 60 - 50/295.15 - 284.79

(287.4 - 284.79)°C

= 52.5°C
