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

A 4.9-MeV (kinetic energy) proton enters a 0.28-T field, in a plane perpendicular to the field. Part APart complete What is the
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

r=1.14m

Explanation:

\theta is the angle between the velocity and the magnetic field. So, the magnetic force on the proton is:

F_m=qvBsen\theta\\F_m=qvBsen(90^\circ)\\F_m=qvB

A charged particle describes a semicircle in a uniform magnetic field. Therefore, applying Newton's second law to uniform circular motion:

F_m=F_c\\qvB=F_c(1)

F_c is the centripetal force and is defined as:

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}

Here v is the proton's speed and r is the radius of the circular motion. Replacing this in (1) and solving for r:

qvB=\frac{mv^2}{r}\\r=\frac{mv^2}{qvB}\\r=\frac{mv}{qB}

Recall that 1 J is equal to 6.242*10^{12}MeV, so:

4.9MeV*\frac{1J}{6.242*10^{12}MeV}=7.85*10^{-13}J

We can calculate v from the kinetic energy of the proton:

K=\frac{mv^2}{2}\\\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(7.85*10^{-13}J)}{1.67*10^{-27}kg}}\\v=3.06*10^{7}\frac{m}{s}

Finally, we calculate the radius of the proton path:

r=\frac{mv}{qB}\\r=\frac{1.67*10^{-27}kg(3.06*10^{7}\frac{m}{s})}{1.6*10^{-19}C(0.28T)}\\r=1.14m

A certain spring stretches 3 cm when a load of 15 n is suspended from it. how much will the spring stretch if 30 n is suspended
Alik [6]
Initially, the spring stretches by 3 cm under a force of 15 N. From these data, we can find the value of the spring constant, given by Hook's law:
k= \frac{F}{\Delta x}
where F is the force applied, and \Delta x is the stretch of the spring with respect to its equilibrium position. Using the data, we find
k= \frac{15 N}{3.0 cm}=5.0 N/cm

Now a force of 30 N is applied to the same spring, with constant k=5.0 N/cm. Using again Hook's law, we can find the new stretch of the spring:
\Delta x =  \frac{F}{k}= \frac{30 N}{5.0 N/cm}=6 cm

The direction of an electric field is the direction (5 points) a negative test charge will move in the field a positive test cha
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

a positive test charge will move in the field

Explanation:

The direction of an electric field corresponds to the direction of motion of a positive test charge in the electric field. In fact:

- the electric field produced by a positive charge points outwards the charge --> this is because when a positive test charge is placed in this field, it will feel a repulsive force (because two positive charges repel each other), so it will move away from the positive charge that produces the field

- the electric field produced by a negative charge points towards the charge  itself--> this is because when a positive test charge is placed in this field, it will feel an attractive force (because a positive and a negative charge attract each other), so it will move toward the negative charge that produces the field.
