Answer:

The temperature of the substance with the lower specific heat will increase more than the one with a higher specific heat

Explanation:

The increase of temperature of a substance is given by:

$\Delta T = \frac{Q}{m C_s}$

where

Q is the amount of heat absorbed by the substance

m is the mass of the substance

$C_s$ is the specific heat capacity of the substance

In this problem, we have two substances with same mass m, that absorb the same amount of heat Q. We see from the formula that the increase in temperature is inversely proportional to the specific heat: therefore, the substance with lower specific heat will have a greater increase in temperature than the substance with higher specific heat.

Find the change in velocity of a 369 g hockey puck subject to the force shown below.

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The change in velocity is 15.83 [m/s]

Explanation:

Using the Newton's second law we have:

ΣF = m*a

The force in the graph is 185 N, therefore:

$185=0.369*a\\Where\\a=acceleration made it by the force [m/s^2]$

$a=501.35[m/s^2]$

Now using the following kinematic equation:

$V^{2}=Vi^{2} + 2*a*(x-xi) \\where\\V=final velocity [m/s]\\Vi= initial velocity [m/s] = 0 the hockey disk is in rest when receives the hit.\\ x = Final position [m] = 0.4 m\\xi = initial position [m] = 0.15m\\$
