The specific heat of fat is roughly 1,700 J/(kgoC) whereas that for water is around 4200 J/(kgoC). A 0.63 kg solution of lipids

and water is heated at a rate of 100 W for 5 minutes. During this time, the temperature of the system increases by 20oC. What is the mass of the lipid content, to the nearest hundredth of a kg, in this solution?

Answer:

the mass of the lipid content, to the nearest hundredth of a kg, in this solution =0.46 kg

Explanation:

Total heat content of the fat = heat content of water +heat content of the lipids

Let it be Q

the Q= (mcΔT)_lipids + (mcΔT)_water

total mass of fat  M= 0.63 Kg

Q= heat supplied = 100 W in 5 minutes

ΔT= 20°C

c_lipid= 1700J/(kgoC)

c_water= 4200J/(kgoC)

then,

100\times5\times60= m(1700)20+(0.63-m)(4200)20

solving the above equation we get

m= 0.46 kg

the mass of the lipid content, to the nearest hundredth of a kg, in this solution =0.46 kg

Mass (kg) 4.0
densk [106]

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

First of all, we can find the acceleration the object by using Newton's second law of motion:

F=ma

where

F = 20.0 N is the net force applied on the object

m = 4.0 kg is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

Solving for a, we find

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{20}{4}=5.0 m/s^2

Now we know that the motion of the object is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can find its final velocity by using the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u = 0 is the initial velocity

a=5.0 m/s^2 is the acceleration

t = 5 s is the time

By substituting,

v=0+(5.0)(5)=25 m/s

Why can gases and liquids both transmit heat by convection?
Firlakuza [10]
Basically, the temperature is a result of the average kinetic energy of all the atoms comprising the solid/liquid/gas. In solid, these atoms can just vibrate in place, leaving them to only be able to conduct and radiate heat. However, as you probably know liquids and solids take the shape of their container because the bonds between atoms are loose enough to allow them to freely move around. Due to each individual atom having its own energy, and these atoms being free to move about the liquid/gas they collide with other atoms in the substance. These collisions result in a transfer of energy. Finally, lower energy atoms "sink" and higher energy atoms "rise" thus creating a "convection current".

Difference between male and female gamete​
Inga [223]

Answer:

The male gamete is smaller in comparison to that of the female gamete.

The male gamete is conical from the front while the female gamete is spherical.

The cytoplasm in the male gamete is less in comparison to that of the female gamete.

The male gamete can move with the help of the tail while the female gametes are immobile and do not have any tail or flagella present.

The number of mitochondria present in the sperm is less than the number of mitochondria present in the ovum.

The male gamete has acrosome present in the head region that contains enzymes for dissolving the membranes present around the ovum. The ovum does not contain such digestive enzymes.
