Answer:

20 J/g

Explanation:

In this question, we are required to determine the latent heat of vaporization

To answer the question, we need to ask ourselves the questions:

What is latent heat of vaporization?

It is the amount of heat required to change a substance from its liquid state to gaseous state without change in temperature.

It is the amount of heat absorbed by a substance as it boils.

How do we calculate the latent heat of vaporization?

Latent heat is calculated by dividing the amount of heat absorbed by the mass of the substance.

In this case;

Mass of the substance = 20 g
Heat absorbed as the substance boils is 400 J (1000 J - 600 J)

Thus,

Latent heat of vaporization = Quantity of Heat ÷ Mass

= 400 Joules ÷ 20 g

= 20 J/g

Thus, the latent heat of vaporization is 20 J/g

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

from the question you van see that some detail is missing, however i found this same question using internet search engines on: 'https://www.chegg.com/homework-help/questions-and-answers/light-rail-passenger-trains-provide-transportation-within-cities-speed-slow-nearly-constan-q5808369'

here is the complete question:

'Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant (and quite modest) acceleration. A train travels through a congested part of town at 7.0m/s . Once free of this area, it speeds up to 12m/s in 8.0 s. At the edge of town, the driver again accelerates, with the same acceleration, for another 16 s to reach a higher cruising speed. What is the final Speed?'

SOLUTION

initial speed (u) = 7 m/s

final speed (v) = 13 m/s

initial acceleration time (t1) = 8 s

final acceleration time (t2) = 16 s

what is the higher cruising speed?

acceleration = $\frac{final speed (v) - initial speed(u)}{time (t1)}$

acceleration = $\frac{13-7}{8}$ = 0.75 m/s^{2}

since the train accelerates at the same rate, the increase in speed will be = acceleration x time (t2)

= 0.75 x 16 = 12 m/s

therefore the higher cruising speed = increase in speed + initial speed

= 12 + 13 = 25 m/s

The velocity of the water in the pipe at right is given by V1 = 0.5t m/s and V2 = 1.0t m/s, where t is in seconds. Determine the

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

A) At point 1, local acceleration = 0.5 m/s²

At point 2, local acceleration = 1.0 m/s²

B) Average Eulerian convective acceleration over the two points in the cross section shown = 0.5 m/s²

This value is positive indicating an increase in velocity and acceleration kf the fluid as the cross sectional Area of flow reduces.

Explanation:

Local acceleration at those points is the instantaneous acceleration at those points and it is given as

a = dv/dt

At point 1, v₁ = 0.5 t

a₁ =dv₁/dt = 0.5 m/s²

At point 2, v₂ = 1.0 t

a₂ = dv₂/dt = 1.0 m/s²

b) Average Eulerian convective acceleration over the two points in the cross section shown = (change of velocity between the two points)/time

Change of velocity between the two points = v₂ - v₁ = 1.0t - 0.5t = 0.5 t

Time = t

Average acceleration = 0.5t/t = 0.5 m/s²

This value is positive indicating an increase in velocity and acceleration kf the fluid as the cross sectional Area of flow reduces.

Gwar [14]

Answer:

hello your question has some missing parts

A juggler performs in a room whose ceiling is 3 m above the level of his hands. He throws a ball vertically upward so that it just reaches the ceiling.

answer : c) 0.39 sec

d) 2.25 m

e) 1.92 m/sec

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the first ball = 7.67 m/sec ( calculated )

Time required for first ball to reach ceiling = 0.78 secs ( calculated )

Determine how long after the second ball is thrown do the two balls pass each other

Distance travelled by first ball downwards when it meets second ball can be expressed as : d = 1/2 gt^2 = 9.8t^2 / 2

hence d = 4.9t^2 ----- ( 1 )

Initial speed of second ball = first ball initial speed = 7.67 m/sec

3 - d = 7.67t - 4.9t ---- ( 2 )

equating equation 1 and 2

3 = 7.67t therefore t = 0.39 sec

Determine how far the balls are above the Juggler's hands ( when the balls pass each other )

form equation 1 ;

d = 4.9 t^2 = 4.9 *(0.39)^2 = 0.75 m

therefore the height the balls are above the Juggler's hands is

3 - d = 3 - 0.75 = 2.25 m

determine their velocities when the pass each other

velocity = displacement / time

velocity = d / t = 0.75 / 0.39 sec = 1.92 m/sec
