Answer:

The mass of silver block = 73.95 g

Explanation:

Given,

For water:

Mass = 100.0 g

Initial temperature = 24.8 °C

Final temperature = 26.2 °C

Specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

For silver:

Mass = x g

Initial temperature = 59.4 °C

Final temperature = 26.2 °C

Specific heat of water = 0.2386 J/g°C

Heat gain by water = Heat lost by silver

Thus,  

m_{water}\times C_{water}\times (T_f-T_i)=-m_{silver}\times C_{silver}\times (T_f-T_i)

Where, negative sign signifies heat loss

Or,  

m_{water}\times C_{water}\times (T_f-T_i)=m_{silver}\times C_{silver}\times (T_i-T_f)

So,  100.0\times 4.184\times (26.2-24.8)=x\times 0.2386\times (59.4-26.2)

x\times \:0.2386\left(59.4-26.2\right)=100\times \:4.184\left(26.2-24.8\right)

x\times \:0.2386\left(59.4-26.2\right)=585.76

x=\frac{585.76}{7.92152}

x=73.95

<u>Hence, the mass of silver block = 73.95 g</u>

A satellite's speed is 10,000 m/s. After 1 min, it is 5,000 m/s. What is the satellite's acceleration?
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

- 83.33 m per second square

Explanation:

Initial velocity u = 10,000 m/s

Final Velocity v = 5,000 m/s

Time t = 1 minutes = 60 seconds

Acceleration a =?

\because \: a =  \frac{v - u}{t}  \\  \\  =  \frac{5000 - 10000}{60}  \\  \\  =  \frac{ - 5000}{60}  \\  \\ a =  - 83.33 \: m {s}^{ - 2}
