An unknown substance has a mass of 0.125 kg and an initial temperature of 95.0°C. The substance is then dropped into a calorimet

er made of aluminum containing 0.285 kg of water initially at 25.0°C. The mass of the aluminum container is 0.150 kg, and the temperature of the calorimeter increases to a final equilibrium temperature of 32.0°C. Assuming no thermal energy is transferred to the environment, calculate the specific heat of the unknown substance.

Answer:

1,186.813J/KgoC

Explanation:

Since heat is usually transferred from a hotter to a colder body,

Heat lost by unknown substance = heat gained by aluminum calorimeter + heat gained by water

M(un) x C(un) x [ Temp(un) – Temp(equil) ] = M(Al) x C(Al) x [ Temp(equil) – Temp(Al) ] + M(H2O) x C(H2O) x [ Temp(equil) – Temp(H2O) ]

Where M(un) = 0.125kg, C(un) = specific heat capacity of unknown substance = ?, Temp(un) = 95oC, Temp(equil) = 32oC, M(Al) = 0.150kg, C(Al) = specific heat capacity of aluminum = 921.096J/KgoC, Temp(Al) = 25.0oC, M(H2O) = 0.285Kg, C(H2O)= specific heat capacity of liquid water = 4,200J/KgoC

Temp(H2O) = 25.0oC

That is,

0.125 x C(un) x (95-32) = 0.150 x 921.096 x (32-25) + 0.285 x 4200 x (32-25)

C(un) x 0.125 x 63 = 0.150 x 921.096 x 7 + 0.285 x 4200 x 7

C(un) x 7.875 = 967.1508 + 8379

C(un) x 7.875 = 9346.1508

C(un) = 9346.1508/7.875

C(un) = 1,186.813J/KgoC

Answer:

c = 1163.34 J/kg.°C

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

"Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a substance per unit of mass. The specific heat capacity of a material is a physical property."

Use this equation:

mcΔT = ( mw c + mAl cAl )  ΔT'

Rearranging the equation to find the specific heat (c) you get this:

c = (( mw c + mAl cAl )  ΔT') / (mΔT)

c = (( 0.285 (4186) + (0.15)(900)) (32 -25.1)) / ((0.125) (95 - 32))

c = 1163.34 J/kg.°C

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

θ  = 12.95º

Explanation:

For this exercise it is best to separate the process into two parts, one where they collide and another where the system moves altar the maximum height

Let's start by finding the speed of the bar plus clay ball system, using amount of momentum

The mass of the bar (M = 0.080 kg) and the mass of the clay ball (m = 0.015 kg) with speed (v₀ = 2.0 m / s)

Initial before the crash

      p₀ = m v₀

Final after the crash before starting the movement

     p_{f} = (m + M) v

     p₀ = p_{f}

     m v₀ = (m + M) v

     v = v₀ m / (m + M)

     v = 2.0 0.015 / (0.015 +0.080)

     v = 0.316 m / s

With this speed the clay plus bar system comes out, let's use the concept of conservation of mechanical energy

Lower

    Em₀ = K = ½ (m + M) v²

Higher

    E_{mf} = U = (m + M) g y

   Em₀ = E_{mf}

   ½ (m + M) v² = (m + M) g y

   y = ½ v² / g

   y = ½ 0.316² / 9.8

   y = 0.00509 m

Let's look for the angle the height from the pivot point is

    L = 0.40 / 2 = 0.20 cm

The distance that went up is

     y = L - L cos θ

     cos θ  = (L-y) / L

     θ  = cos⁻¹ (L-y) / L

     θ  = cos⁻¹-1 ((0.20 - 0.00509) /0.20)

      θ  = 12.95º

An output is a Push or pull _________________________ on the object
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The input force that you use on an inclined plane is the force with which you push or pull an object. The output force is the force that you would need to lift the object without the inclined plane. This force is equal to the weight of the object.

kupik [55]

Answer:

<h2>Part A)</h2><h2>Acceleration of the ball is 10.1 m/s/s</h2><h2>Part B)</h2><h2>the final speed of the ball is given as</h2><h2>v_f = 35.3 m/s</h2>

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that drag force is given as

F = \frac{C_d \rho A v^2}{2}

C_d = 0.35

A = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}

A = \frac{\pi(0.074)^2}{4}

A = 4.3 \times 10^{-3} m^2

v = 40.2 m/s

so we have

F = \frac{0.35\times 1.2 (4.3 \times 10^{-3})(40.2)^2}{2}

F = 1.46 N

So acceleration of the ball is

a = \frac{F}{m}

a = \frac{1.46}{0.145}

a = 10.1 m/s^2

Part B)

As per kinematics we know that

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

v_f^2 - 40.2^2 = 2(-10.1)(18.4)

v_f = 35.3 m/s
