A liquid requires enthalpy of vaporization to transform into vapor or gas at its boiling point.  Here the element absorbs heat from surroundings or heat source.

This energy is used in breaking the forces of attraction among the atoms and molecules of the element. The molecules get separated to higher distances. The energy is converted in to the kinetic energy of the molecules in gaseous form and into the internal energy in terms of the temperature of the gas.

A 50,0 g silver spoon at 20.0°C is placed in a cup of coffee at
My name is Ann [436]

The heat capacity of the silver spoon at the given temperature difference is 817.65 J.

<h3>Heat capacity of the silver spoon</h3>

The heat capacity of theb silver spoon is the quantity of heat absorbed by the silver spoon. The heat capacity of the silver spoon at the given temperature difference is calculated as follows;

Q = mcΔθ

where;

  • m is mass of the spoon
  • c is specific heat capacity of silver = 0.237 J/g⁰C
  • Δθ is change in temperature

Q = 50 x 0.237 x (89 - 20)

Q = 817.65 J

Thus, the heat capacity of the silver spoon at the given temperature difference is 817.65 J.

Suppose an object is moving 2.1 m/s north on a river, but the river is flowing to the east at a velocity of 1.2 m/s. What is the
rewona [7]

Answer:

2.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Velocity of the object moving north = 2.1 m/s

Velocity of the river moving eastward = 1.2 m/s

The resultant velocity is the vector sum of the velocities of object and river.

Since the directions of velocity of object and river are perpendicular to each other, the magnitude of the resultant velocity is obtained using Pythagoras Theorem.

The velocities are the legs of the right angled triangle and the resultant velocity is the hypotenuse.

The magnitude of the resultant velocity (R) is given as:

R^2=2.1^2+1.2^2\\\\R^2=4.41+1.44\\\\R=\sqrt{5.85}\\\\R=2.4\ m/s

Therefore, the resultant velocity has a magnitude of 2.4 m/s.

Which of the following objects cannot make a shadow? Broken piece of glass from a window/wooden pane of the same window? Explain
Lorico [155]

Answer:

broken pieces of glass from a window can't form a shadow.

Explanation:

the reason is that shadow is formed only when light rays hits an opaque object, which doesn't let light to pass through it, but glass is a transparent object, hence light rays passes through it forming no shadow..

Which statement is true of a wave that’s propagating along the pavement and girders of a suspension bridge?
alexandr1967 [171]
The statement which is true of a wave that’s propagating along the pavement and girders of a suspension bridge is A. The wave is mechanical, with particles vibrating in a direction that is parallel to that of the wave, forming compressions and rarefactions.
