Answer:

0.46 J/g^{\circ}C

Explanation:

The heat absorbed by the piece of iron is given by:

Q=m C_s \Delta T

where here we have

Q = 1086.75 J is the heat absorbed

m = 15.75 g is the mass of the piece of iron

Cs is the iron's specific heat

\Delta T=175^{\circ}C-25^{\circ} C=150^{\circ}C is the change in temperature of the piece of iron

If we re-arrange the formula and we solve for Cs, we find the iron's specific heat capacity:

C_s=\frac{Q}{m \Delta T}=\frac{1086.75 J}{(15.75 g)(150^{\circ}C)}=0.46 J/gC

List the types of electromagnetic radiation in order from lowest energy photons to highest energy photons.
frutty [35]

radio waves,X-rays,

Explanation:

In order from highest to lowest energy, the sections of the EM spectrum are named: gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet radiation, visible light, infrared radiation, and radio waves. Microwaves (like the ones used in microwave ovens) are a subsection of the radio wave segment of the EM spectrum.

Andrew [12]
A force vector F1 points due east and has a magnitude of 200 Newtons, A second force F2 is added to F1. The resultant of the two vectors has a magnitude of 400 newtons and points along the due east/west line. Find the magnitude and direction of F2. Note that there are two answers. <span>The given values are
F1 = 200 N</span> F2 =? Total = 400 N

Solution: F1 + F2 = T 200 N + F2 = 400N
F2 = 400 - 200
F2 = 200 N

A particle moves according to the equation x = 11t^2, where x is in meters and t is in seconds.
Savatey [412]
We are given the equation:

<span>x = 11t^2
</span>
We use that equation to calculate for the distance traveled.
For (a)

At t=2.20 sec,    
                             x =53.24 meters

At t=2.95 sec,   
                             x =95.73 meters

Velocity = (95.73 meters - 53.24<span> meters) / (2.95 s - 2.20 s )  = 56.65 m/s

</span>For (b)

At t=2.20 sec,    
                             x =53.24 meters

At t=2.40 sec,   
                             x =63.36 meters

Velocity = (63.36 meters - 53.24<span> meters) / (2.40 s - 2.20 s )  = 50.6 m/s</span>
