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.

A North American tourist takes his 26.0 W, 120 V AC razor to Europe, finds a special adapter, and plugs it into 220 V AC. Assumi
Irina-Kira [14]

Explanation:

For North America,

Power, P = 26 W

Voltage of AC razor, V = 120 V

For Europe,

Voltage of AC razor, V' = 220 V

The power of razor in North America is given by :

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\\R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{120^2}{26}\\\\R=553.84\ \Omega

Let P' is the power consumed by razor in Europe. Now,

P'=\dfrac{V'^2}{R}\\P'=\dfrac{220^2}{553.84}\\\\P'=87.38\ \Omega

So, the razor consumed 87.38 watts of power as it is ruined.

Calculate the amount of heat needed to melt 35.0 g of ice at 0 ºC.Express your answer in kilojoules
PolarNik [594]
The amount of heat will be equal to Lm.

Where L is the latent heat of fusion and m is mass of the ice.

Latent heat of ice = 80cal/g.

So the amount of heat required here will be 35× 80cal

= 2,800 cal.
