What variable represents specific heat in the equation q = mct?

1 answer:

5 0

The "c" represents in specific heat in this question.

Q is the total energy, m is the mass, c is the specific heat capacity, and t is the temperature change. This equation is the equation for calculating about the total energy given out of absorbed when a temperature of a substance changes.

For example, if we want to know how much heat is absorbed by 1 kg of water for it to rise by 10 degrees, we can calculate by using the specific heat of water, which is around 4200 J kg-1 °C-1. So the total heat absorbed would be 1 x 4200 x 10 = 42000 J.

A 50% antifreeze solution is to be mixed with a 90% antifreeze solution to get 200 liters of a 80% solution. How many liters of

sergey [27]

Answer:

50 ltr 150 ltr

Explanation:

this problem can be solved by the mixture and allegation concept which can be clearly understand from bellow figure in which the concentration of solution 1 is 50% and concentration of solution 2 is 90% before mixing after mixing with help bellow concept the ratio of concentration become 10:30

ratio of solution 1 and solution 2 =10:30

=1:3

total mixture is 200 liters

part of solution 1= $\frac{1}{4}$ ×200
