A spring with spring constant 33N/m is attached to the ceiling, and a 4.8-cm-diameter, 1.5kg metal cylinder is attached to its l
mylen [45]

Answer:

0.423m

Explanation:

Conversion to metric unit

d = 4.8 cm = 0.048m

Let water density be \who_w = 1000 kg/m^3

Let gravitational acceleration g = 9.8 m/s2

Let x (m) be the length that the spring is stretched in equilibrium, x is also the length of the cylinder that is submerged in water since originally at a non-stretching position, the cylinder barely touches the water surface.

Now that the system is in equilibrium, the spring force and buoyancy force must equal to the gravity force of the cylinder. We have the following force equation:

F_s + F_b = W

Where F_s = kxN is the spring force, F_b = W_w = m_wg = \rho_w V_s g is the buoyancy force, which equals to the weight W_w of the water displaced by the submerged portion of the cylinder, which is the product of water density \rho_w, submerged volume V_s and gravitational constant g. W = mg is the weight of the metal cylinder.

kx + \rho_w V_s g = mg

The submerged volume would be the product of cross-section area and the submerged length x

V_s = Ax = \pi(d/2)^2x

Plug that into our force equation and we have

kx + \rho_w \pi(d/2)^2x g = mg

x(k + \rho_w g \pi d^2/4) = mg

x = \frac{m}{(k/g) + (\rho_w\pi d^2/4)} = \frac{1.5}{(33/9.8) + (100*\pi * 0.048^2/4)} = 0.423 m

What is demonstrated by water moving up a straw?
Alja [10]
<span>The answer is C: water is drawn up a straw by cohesion and adhesion. Water molecules stick to one another and the walls of the straw, just like in a capillary.
Cohesion is the attractive force between like materials (between water
molecules).
Adhesion is the attractive force between twounlike materials (such as between
water and a solid container).
Capillary action is the tendency of a liquid to rise innarrow tubes or small openings as a result of adhesion and cohesion.
The liquid water molecules bind to the straw—a process known as adhesion.  In the narrow space of the straw, the interaction of cohesion and adhesion causes theliquid to be drawn upward in the straw.</span>

How much heat (in kJ) is required to warm 13.0 g of ice, initially at -12.0 ∘C, to steam at 109.0 ∘C?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

39.699 kJ

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In this situation, there are a few transformations as follows;

(i) Heat required to warm the ice from -12°C to its melting point.

(ii) Heat required to melt the ice.

(iii) Heat required to boil the melted ice to boiling point (i.e to steam)

(iv) Heat required to vapourize the water

(v) Heat required to heat the steam from 100°C to 109.0°C

The sum of all the heat processes gives the heat required to warm the ice to steam;

<h3><em>Calculate each of these heat processes</em></h3>

<em>From (i);</em>

Let the heat required to warm the ice from -12.0°C to its melting point (0°C) be Q₁.

Q₁ = m x c x ΔT        -----------------------(i)

Where;

m = mass of ice = 13.0g

c = specific heat capacity of ice = 2.09 J/g°C

ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature = 0°C - (-12°C) = 12°C

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

Q₁ = 13.0 x 2.09 x 12 = 326.04 J

<em>From (ii);</em>

Let the heat required to melt the ice be Q₂. This heat is called the heat of fusion and it is given by;

Q₂ = m x L        -----------------------(ii)

Where;

m = mass of ice = 13.0g

L = latent heat of fusion of ice = 333.6 J/g

Substitute these values into equation (ii) as follows;

Q₂ = 13.0 x 333.6

Q₂ = 4336.8 J

<em>From (iii);</em>

Let the heat required to boil the melted ice from 0°C to boiling point of 100°C be Q₃.

Q₃ =  m x c x ΔT        -----------------------(i)

Where;

m = mass of melted ice (water) which is still 13.0g

c = specific heat capacity of melted ice (water) = 4.2 J/g°C

ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature = 100°C - 0°C = 100°C

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

Q₁ = 13.0 x 4.2 x 100 = 5460 J

<em>From (iv);</em>

Let the heat required to vaporize the water (melted ice) be Q₄. This heat is called the heat of vaporization and it is given by;

Q₄ = m x L        -----------------------(iv)

Where;

m = mass of ice = 13.0g

L = latent heat of vaporization of water = 2257 J/g

Substitute these values into equation (iv) as follows;

Q₄ = 13.0 x 2257

Q₄ = 29341 J

<em>From (v);</em>

Let the heat required to heat the steam from 100°C to 109°C be Q₅.

Q₅ =  m x c x ΔT        -----------------------(i)

Where;

m = mass of steam which is still 13.0g

c = specific heat capacity of steam = 2.01 J/g°C

ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature = 109.0°C - 100°C = 9°C

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

Q₅ = 13.0 x 2.01 x 9 = 235.17J

<em>Finally:</em>

<em>Sum all the heat values together;</em>

Q = Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃ + Q₄ + Q₅

Q = 326.04 + 4336.8 + 5460 + 29341 + 235.17

Q = 39699.01 J

Q = 39.699 kJ

Therefore, the amount of heat (in kJ) required is 39.699
