Heat
gained in a system can be calculated by multiplying the given mass to the
specific heat capacity of the substance and the temperature difference. It is
expressed as follows:<span>
Heat = mC(T2-T1)
345.2 = 89.5(C)(305 - 285)
C = 0.1928 </span>J/g•K
Explanation:
m = mass of burrito thrown by the student = 0.5 kg
a = acceleration of the burrito thrown by the student = 3 m/s²
F = force applied by the student on the burrito = ?
According to newton's second law , the net force on an object is the product of its mass and acceleration. it is given as
F = ma
inserting the values
F = (0.5) (3)
F = 1.5 N
hence the net force on the burrito comes out to be 1.5 N
