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

9) Of all the types of light the Sun gives off, it emits the greatest amount of light at visible wavelengths of light. If the Su
erastova [34]

Answer:

*  most of the emission would be in the infrared part, the visible radiation would be very small.

*total intensity of the semition decreases that the intensity depends on the fourth power of the temperature

Explanation:

The radiation emitted by the Sun is approximately the radiation of a black body, if the Sun were to cool, the maximum emission wavelength changes

          λ T = 2,898 10⁻³

          λ = 2,898 10⁻³ / T

if the temperature decreases the maximum wavelength the greater values ​​are moved, that is to say towards the infrared. Therefore the emission curve also moves, in this case most of the emission would be in the infrared part, the visible radiation would be very small.

Furthermore, the total intensity of the semition decreases that the intensity depends on the fourth power of the temperature according to Stefan's law

A cross-country skier moves 36 meters eastward, then 44
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Magnitude = 14 metres

Direction = eastward.

Explanation:

A cross-country skier moves 36 meters eastward, then 44meters westward, and finally 22 meters eastward.

Whats the Magnitude and Direction?

The magnitude and direction will be the displacement of the cross country skier.

Let the east ward be positive and the west ward be negative.

Since the skier moves 36 meters eastward, then 44meters westward, and finally 22 meters eastward. Then, that will be:

36 - 44 + 22 = 14

Since the answer is positive, the magnitude is 14 and the direction is east ward.

Which of the following changes would decrease the coefficient of friction needed for this ride?
posledela
Friction occurs between two contacting surfaces. The coefficient of friction is very much dependent on the roughness of these surfaces. Some of the many ways in which the coefficient can be lessened or decreased are to lubricate the surface or make it shiny by eliminating the spikes which caused the roughness.
