The astronaut when positioned on a scale of an international space station that is static in rotational motion, and turning around the earth, will have no effect, since there is no external force acting on it. This is in perpetual free fall around the earth.

When an astronaut stands on a scale within a rotating space station, he will have the Rotational Centripetal Force acting on it, said Force, from the inside acting as 'Artificial Gravity' which will generate a given measurement on the scale.

How much heat is required to vaporize 1.5kg of liquid water at its boiling point
Dafna11 [192]

Given:

Water, 1.5kg at boiling point

Required:

Heat required to vaporize at boiling point

Solution:

Water at boiling point is at 100degrees Celsius

Changing it into Kelvin, just dd 273 to 100 = 373 K

H = mCpT

H = (1.5kg)(4.184kJ/kg-K)(373K)

<span>H = 2340.9kJ</span>

I’m not sure how to solve this
spayn [35]

Answer:

Option 10. 169.118 J/KgºC

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 20 °C

Heat (Q) absorbed = 1.61 KJ

Mass of metal bar = 476 g

Specific heat capacity (C) of metal bar =?

Next, we shall convert 1.61 KJ to joule (J). This can be obtained as follow:

1 kJ = 1000 J

Therefore,

1.61 KJ = 1.61 KJ × 1000 J / 1 kJ

1.61 KJ = 1610 J

Next, we shall convert 476 g to Kg. This can be obtained as follow:

1000 g = 1 Kg

Therefore,

476 g = 476 g × 1 Kg / 1000 g

476 g = 0.476 Kg

Finally, we shall determine the specific heat capacity of the metal bar. This can be obtained as follow:

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 20 °C

Heat (Q) absorbed = 1610 J

Mass of metal bar = 0.476 Kg

Specific heat capacity (C) of metal bar =?

Q = MCΔT

1610 = 0.476 × C × 20

1610 = 9.52 × C

Divide both side by 9.52

C = 1610 / 9.52

C = 169.118 J/KgºC

Thus, the specific heat capacity of the metal bar is 169.118 J/KgºC
