An unknown mass of each substance, initially at 25.0 ∘C, absorbs 1920 J of heat. The final temperature is recorded. Find the mas
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer: mass for Pyrex glass 84.21g

mass for sand 61.6g

mass for ethanol 41.32g

mass for water 62.07g

Explanation

By definition specific heat is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of 1 kg mas by 1°C

Q=mcΔT is formula for specific heat

Q is heat transfer

m is mass

ΔT is change in temperature

c   is specific heat

c of Pyrex glass= 0.75 j/g°C

c of sand = 0.84 j/g°C

c of ethanol= 2.42 j/g°C

c of water = 4.18 j/g°C

now we will make M(mass) the subject, so equation becomes

m=Q/cΔT

for

pyrex glass T<em>f=</em>55.4°C

m=1920/(55.4-25)*0.75

m=84.21g {after cutting J(joules) and °C we are left with g(grams)}

for

sand T<em>f</em>=62.1°C

m=1920/(62.1-25)*0.84

m=61.6g {after cutting J(joules) and °C we are left with g(grams)}

for

ethanol T<em>f</em>=44.2°C

m=1920/(44.2-25)*2.42

m=41.32g  {after cutting J(joules) and °C we are left with g(grams)}

for

water T<em>f=</em>32.4°

m=1920/(32.4-25)*4.18

m=62.07g  {after cutting J(joules) and °C we are left with g(grams)}

i hope you understand the solution, thank you.

A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery. What happens to the stored energy if the plate separation is doubled while
zlopas [31]

Answer:

new energy of the capacitor is half that of initial energy

Explanation:

As we know that the energy stored in the capacitor is given as

U = \frac{1}{2}CV^2

here we know that capacitance of parallel plate capacitor is given as

C = \frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}

V = voltage of battery

so now we have capacitor remains connected to the same battery and the separation between the plates is doubled

so we have

C' = \frac{\epsilon_0 A}{2d}

so now the energy stored between the plates is

U = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{C}{2})V^2

so new energy of the capacitor is half

Two cars A and B are 100m apart moving towards each other with
maxonik [38]

Let car A's starting position be the origin, so that its position at time <em>t</em> is

A: <em>x</em> = (40 m/s) <em>t</em>

and car B has position at time <em>t</em> of

B: <em>x</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

<em />

They meet when their positions are equal:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m

<em>t</em> = (100 m) / (100 m/s) = 1 s

so the cars meet 1 second after they start moving.

They are 100 m apart when the difference in their positions is equal to 100 m:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> - (100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>) = 100 m

(subtract car B's position from car A's position because we take car A's direction to be positive)

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 200 m

<em>t</em> = (200 m) / (100 m/s) = 2 s

so the cars are 100 m apart after 2 seconds.

how much kinetic energy is produced when an object having mass of 50gm throwing with velocity 80m/s?​
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

KE = 160 J

Explanation:

KE = 1/2mv²

mass= 50gm = 0.05kg

velocity = 80

KE = 1/2 x 0.05 x 80²

= 1/2 x 0.05 x 6400

= 160
