1. Sodium metal reacts vigorously with water to produce hydrogen gas.

Chemical. A chemical property can only be observed by changing the chemical identity of a substance.

2. Steel is attracted to magnets.

Physical. A physical property is is an aspect of matter that can be observed or measured without changing its chemical composition.

Cart A, with a mass of 0.20 kg, travels on a horizontal air trackat 3.0m/s and hits cart B, which has a mass of 0.40 kg and is i

inysia [295]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{C. 2.3 m/s}}$

Explanation:

Data:

$m_{\text{A} } = \text{0.20 kg};\,v_{\text{Ai}} = \text{3.0 m/s}\\m_{\text{B} } = \text{0.40 kg};\,v_{\text{Bi}} = \text{2.0 m/s}\\$

Calculation:

This is a perfectly inelastic collision. The two carts stick together after the collision and move with a common final velocity.

The conservation of momentum equation is

$\begin{array}{rcl}m_{\text{A}}v_{\text{Ai}} +m_{\text{B}} v_{\text{Bi}}&=&(m_{\text{A}} + m_{\text{B}})v_{\text{f}}\\0.20\times 3.0 + 0.40\times 2.0 & = & (0.20 + 0.40)v_{\text{f}}\\0.60 + 0.80 & = & 0.60v_{\text{f}}\\1.40 & = & 0.60v_{\text{f}}\\v_{\text{f}}&=& \dfrac{1.40}{0.60}\\\\& = & \textbf{2.3 m/s}\\\end{array}\\\text{The centre of mass has a velocity of $\large \boxed{\textbf{2.3 m/s}}$}$

An aluminum calorimeter with a mass of 100 g contains 250 g of water. The calorimeter and water are in thermal equilibrium at 10

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

1822.14 J/kg C

Explanation:

Mass of aluminum = 0.100 kg

Mass of Water = 0.250 kg

Mass of copper = 0.300 kg

Mass of unknown object = 0.70 kg

Initial temperature of Aluminum = 10 C

Initial temperature of water = 10 C

Initial temperature of copper = 30 C

Initial temperature of = 100 C

Final temperature of all substances = 20 C

Change in temperature of each of them Aluminum, water , copper and unknown material respectively = 10 C , 10 C , -10 C, -80 C respectively

Specific heat of each of them Aluminum, water , copper and unknown material respectively = 900,4186,387 and c respectively.

Heat gained by aluminum and water = (0.1)(900)(10) + (0.250)(4186)(10) = 11365 j

heat lost by copper and unknown material =(0.3)(387)(-10) = -1161

heat lost by unknown material = (0.070)(c)(-80) = -5.6 c

Now solve for c using the calorimetry principle.

Heat lost + Heat gained = 0

⇒ -5.6 c = -11365 - (-1161) = -10204 j

Specific heat of unknown material = - 10204 / -5.6

= 1822.14 j/kg C

b) Material having a specific heat of 1800 j /kg C is

Polyurethane elastomer.
