Answer:

False

Explanation:

Because laws and theories are developed for different purposes, laws never become theories, and theories do not become laws.

Two objects are brought into contact Object 1 has mass 0.76 kg, specific heat capacity 0.87) g'c and initial temperature 52.2 'C

taurus [48]

Answer:

$T_F=77.4\°C$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible to set up the following energy equation for both objects 1 and 2:

$Q_1=-Q_2$

In terms of mass, specific heat and temperature change is:

$m_1C_1(T_F-T_1)=-m_2C_2(T_F-T_2)$

Now, solve for the final temperature, as follows:

$T_F=\frac{m_1C_1T_1+m_2C_2T_2}{m_1C_1+m_2C_2}$

Then, plug in the masses, specific heat and temperatures to obtain:

$T_F=\frac{760g*0.87\frac{J}{g\°C} *52.2\°C+70.7g*3.071\frac{J}{g\°C}*154\°C}{760g*0.87\frac{J}{g\°C} +70.7g*3.071\frac{J}{g\°C}} \\\\T_F=77.4\°C$

Yet, the values do not seem to have been given correctly in the problem, so it'll be convenient for you to recheck them.

Regards!

In each case, calculate the appropriate ratio to show that the information given is consistent with the law of multiple proporti

Alchen [17]

Answer:

(a) 3:2; (b) 2:1

Explanation:

The Law of Multiple Proportions states that when two elements A and B combine to form two or more compounds, the masses of B that combine with a given mass of A are in the ratios of small whole numbers.

That is, if one compound has a ratio r₁ and the other has a ratio r₂, the ratio of the ratios r is in small whole numbers.

(a) Ammonia and hydrazine.

In ammonia, the mass ratio of H:N is r₁ = 0.2158/1

In hydrazine, the mass ratio of H:N is r₂ = 0.1439/1

The ratio of the ratios is:

$r = \dfrac{r_{1}}{r_{2}} = \dfrac{ 0.2158}{0.1439} = \dfrac{1.500 }{1} = \dfrac{2.999}{2} \approx \mathbf{\dfrac{3}{2}}\\\\\text{The relative amounts of H in the two compounds are in the ratio }\boxed{\mathbf{\dfrac{3}{2}}}$

(b) Nitrogen oxides

In nitrogen monoxide, the mass ratio of O:N is r₁ = 1.142/1

In dinitrogen monoxide, the mass ratio of O:N is r₂ = 0.571/1

The ratio of the ratios is:

$r = \dfrac{r_{1}}{r_{2}} = \dfrac{ 1.142}{0.571} = \dfrac{2.000 }{1} \approx \mathbf{\dfrac{2}{1}}\\\\\text{The relative amounts of O in the two compounds are in the ratio }\boxed{\mathbf{\dfrac{2}{1}}}$

What pressure is exerted on the bottom of a 0.500-m-wide by 0.900-m-long gas tank that can hold 50.0 kg of gasoline by the weigh

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

1088.89 Pa

Explanation:

According to the Newton's second law of motion:-

$Force=Mass\times Acceleration$

Mass = 50.0 kg

Acceleration = g = 9.81 m/s²

So,

$Force=50.0\times 9.8\ kgm/s^2$

Force = 490 N

Area of the base = $length\times breath$ = $0.500\times 0.900$ m² = 0.45 m²

<u>Pressure = Force/Area = $\frac{490\ N}{0.45\ m^2}$ = 1088.89 Pa</u>

If you are pushing a shopping cart and you start pushing harder , what happens?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

The kinetic energy of the shopping cart increases. This speeds up the energy rate of friction between the wheel and the floor giving off more kinetic energy so the speed rate can increase (depending on how much your pushing it) Hope this helps :)
