The heat transferred by the steam to the skin is given by
Q=m L_v
where
m is the mass of the steam
L_v is the latent heat of vaporization.

In our problem, the mass of the steam is (converting into kg)
m=25.0 g=0.025 kg
while the latent heat of vaporization of the steam is
L_v = 2.256 \cdot 10^6 J/kg
Substituting into the previous formula, we find the heat transferred to the skin:
Q=m L_v = (0.025 kg)(2.256 \cdot 10^6 J/kg)=56400 J = 2.56 \cdot 10^4 J

The temperature of 2.0 g of helium is increased at constant volume by ΔT. What mass of oxygen can have its temperature increased
gavmur [86]

Answer:

m = 9.6 g

Explanation:

Thermal energy given to helium gas at constant volume is given as

Q = nC_v \Delta T

so here we have

C_v = \frac{3}{2}R

n = moles

n = \frac{2}{4} = 0.5

so we have

Q = \frac{3}{2}R(0.5)\Delta T

now we know that

for oxygen gas we have

C_v = \frac{5}{2}R

for same amount of heat we have

Q = nC_v \Delta T'

\frac{3}{2}R(0.5)\Delta T = \frac{m}{32} (\frac{5R}{2}) \Delta T

m = \frac{0.75 \times 32}{2.5}

m = 9.6 g

To apply Problem-Solving Strategy 12.2 Sound intensity. You are trying to overhear a most interesting conversation, but from you
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

r₂ = 0.316 m

Explanation:

The sound level is expressed in decibels, therefore let's find the intensity for the new location

            β = 10 log \frac{I}{I_o}

let's write this expression for our case

           β₁ = 10 log \frac{I_1}{I_o}

           β₂ = 10 log \frac{I_2}{I_o}

           

          β₂ -β₁ = 10 ( log \frac{I_2}{I_o} - log \frac{I_1}{I_o})

          β₂ - β₁ = 10 log \frac{I_2}{I_1}

          log \frac{I_2}{I_1} = \frac{60 - 20}{10} = 3

           \frac{I_2}{I_1} = 10³

           I₂ = 10³ I₁

having the relationship between the intensities, we can use the definition of intensity which is the power per unit area

           I = P / A

           P = I A

the area is of a sphere

          A = 4π r²

           

the power of the sound does not change, so we can write it for the two points

          P =  I₁ A₁ =  I₂ A₂

          I₁ r₁² = I₂ r₂²

we substitute the ratio of intensities

          I₁ r₁² = (10³ I₁ ) r₂²

         r₁² = 10³ r₂²

         

         r₂ = r₁ / √10³

         

we calculate

          r₂ = \frac{10.0}{\sqrt{10^3} }

          r₂ = 0.316 m

g a horizontal wheel of radius is rotating about a vertical axis. What is the magnitude of the resultant acceleration of a bug t
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

   a = w² r

Explanation:

In this exercise, indicate that the wheel has angular velocity w, the worm experiences the same angular velocity if it does not move, and has an acceleration towards the center of the circle, according to Newton's second law, called the centripetal acceleration.

           a = v² / r

angular and linear variables are related

           v = w r

we substitute

          a = w² r

where r is the radius of the wheel
