Answer:

1.48 kg

Explanation:

mass of copper = 4 kg

Decrease in temperature of copper = 36.9°C

increase in temperature of water = 9.20°C

Let the mass of water is m.

Specific heat of water = 4181 J/Kg°C

Specific heat of copper = 385 J/kg°C

According to the principle of caloriemetery

Heat lost by copper = heat gained by water

mass of copper x specific heat of copper x decrease in temperature = mass of water x specific heat of water x increase in temperature

4 x 385 x 36.9 = m x 4181 x 9.20

56826 = 38465.2 m

m = 1.48 kg

Thus, the mas of water is 1.48 kg.

What acceleration does the force of earth's gravity peoduce
maksim [4K]
Near Earth's surface, gravitational acceleration is approximately 9.81 m/s2, which means that, ignoring the effects of air resistance, the speed of an object falling freely will increase by about 9.81 metres per second every second.

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

common types of topologies, and we're going to break each of them down in the guide below.

Bus topology. As the simplest design, a bus topology requires nodes to be in a linear order. ...

Ring topology. Another simple design is the ring topology. ...

Star topology. ...

Kon'nichiwa~<br>please help me with this question!!​
andrezito [222]

Let's check the relationship

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow g=\dfrac{GM}{r^2}

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow g\propto G

So

  • Raindrops will fall faster . .
  • Also walking on ground would become more difficult as g increases.

Option C is wrong by now .Let's check D once

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow T\propto \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{g}}

  • So time period of simple pendulum would decrease.

The Earth and the Moon are attracted to each other by universal gravitation. The Earth is much more massive than is the Moon. Do
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Earth attract the Moon with a force that is greater.

Explanation:

According to the law of gravitation, the gravitational force between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Mathematically, F1 = Gm1m2/r²... 1

Let m1 be the mass of the earth and m2 be that of the moon

If the Earth is much more massive than is the Moon, the new force of attraction between them will become;

F2= G(2m1)m2/r²

F2 = 2Gm1m2/r² ... (2)

Dividing eqn 1 by 2 we have;

F1/F2 = (Gm1m2/r²)÷(2Gm1m2/r²)

F1/F2 = Gm1m2/r²×r²/2Gm1m2

F1/F2 = 1/2

F2=2F1

This shows that that the earth will attract the moon by a force 2times the initial force of the masses(i.e a much greater force)
