A piece of hot copper of mass 4.00 kg has it's temperature decrease by 36.90 ºC when it is placed in a body of water of unknown

mass. The temperature of the water is raised by 9.20 ºC. What is the mass of the water?
The heat capacity of Water is 4181 J/kg ºC.

The heat capacity of Copper is 385 J/kg ºC.

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.

Find the object's speeds v1, v2, and v3 at times t1=2.0s, t2=4.0s, and t3=13s.
Burka [1]
Since this is a distance/time graph, the speed at any time is the slope
of the part of the graph that's directly over that time on the x-axis.

At time  t1 = 2.0 s
That's in the middle of the first segment of the graph,
that extends from zero to 3 seconds.
Its slope is  7/3 .              v1 = 7/3 m/s .

At time  t2 = 4.0 s
That's in the middle of the horizontal part of the graph
that runs from 3 to 6 seconds.
Its slope is zero.
                                     v2 = zero .

At time  t3 = 13 s.
That's in the middle of the part of the graph that's sloping down,
between 11 and 16 seconds.
Its slope is  -3/5 .            v3 = -0.6 m/s .

Ditto sound waves espace room answers please I need this urgently ​
lord [1]

The actual question should be did the sound waves escape room?

Yes they can escape the room

  • Sound always needs a medium to travel through
  • If you close the room form all where that even air can't go outside you will be able to hear no sound coming from room .
