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

Gold has a density of 19300 kg/m3 calculate the mass of 0.02m3 of gold in kilograms​
aev [14]

Answer:

The mass of 0.02 m³ of gold is 386 kilograms

Explanation:

Given:

The density of the gold = 19300 kg/m³.

The volume of gold = 0.02 m³

To Find:

The mass of gold = ?

Solution:

We know that density is mass divided per unit volume.

Thus mathematically

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}Density=

volume

mass

Rewriting in terms of mass ,

Mass = density * volume

On substituting the known values

Mass = 19300 kg/m³ * 0.02 m³

Mass = 386 kilograms

A red blood cell is 7 x 10-6 m in size. This means it is 7 __________ in size. What unit completes the sentence?
aalyn [17]

If a red blood cell is 7 x 10^-^6 m in size, it means that such a cell is 7 microns or micrometer in size. The unit that completes the sentence will, thus, be microns or micrometer.

According to international system of measurement:

  • 10^{-1} m = decimeter
  • 10^{-2} m = centimeter
  • 10^{-3} m = millimeter
  • 10^{-6} m = micrometer or micron
  • 10^{-9} m = nanometer

Thus, a measurement of 7 x 10^-^6 m is the same is 7 micons or 7 micrometer.

A red train travelling at 72 km/h and a green train travelling at 144 km/h are headed toward each
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

  Collision will occur.

  Speed of red train when they collide = 0 m/s.

  Speed of green train when they collide = 10 m/s.

Explanation:

Speed of red train = 72 km/h = 20 m/s

Speed of green train = 144 km/h = 40 m/s.

Deceleration of trains = 1 m/s²

For red train:-

    Equation of motion v = u + at

              u = 20 m/s

              v = 0 m/s

              a = -1 m/s²

    Substituting

             0 = 20 - 1 x t

             t = 20 s.

    Equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

              u = 20 m/s

              t = 20 s

              a = -1 m/s²    

    Substituting

             s = 20 x 20 - 0.5 x 1 x 20² = 200 m

   So red train travel 200 m before coming to stop.

For green train:-

    Equation of motion v = u + at

              u = 40 m/s

              v = 0 m/s

              a = -1 m/s²

    Substituting

             0 = 40 - 1 x t

             t = 40 s.

    Equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

              u = 40 m/s

              t = 40 s

              a = -1 m/s²    

    Substituting

             s = 40 x 40 - 0.5 x 1 x 40² = 800 m

   So green train travel 800 m before coming to stop.

 Total distance traveled = 800 + 200 = 1000 m>950 m.

  So both trains collide.

  Distance traveled by green train when red train stops(t=20s)

     Equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

              u = 40 m/s

              t = 20 s

              a = -1 m/s²    

    Substituting

             s = 40 x 20 - 0.5 x 1 x 20² = 600 m

    Total distance after 20 s = 600 + 200 = 800 m< 950m . So they collide after red train stops.

  Speed of red train when they collide = 0 m/s.

  Distance traveled by green train when they collide = 950 - 200 = 750 m

  Equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

              u = 40 m/s

              s= 750 m

              a = -1 m/s²    

    Substituting  

              v² = 40² - 2 x 1 x 750 = 100

               v = 10 m/s

  Speed of green train when they collide = 10 m/s.

Si la fuerza de repulsión entre dos cargas es 18 × 1013
sattari [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

F = kQq/r²

r = √(kQq/F)

a)  r = √(8.899(10⁹)(8)(4) / 18(10¹³)) = 0.0397749... m

  r = 40 mm

b) r = √(8.899(10⁹)(12)(3) / 18(10¹³)) = 0.0421876... m

   r = 42 mm

Which term is defined by the force that moving, charged particles exert on one another?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Electromagnetic force

Explanation:

There are four fundamental forces in nature:

- Gravity: it is the force that is exerted between any objects with mass. It is the weakest of all forces, so it is only relevant at planetary scales. It is always attractive, and it has an infinite range.

- Electromagnetic force: it is the force exerted between charged objects and between magnets (it is responsible for electric fields and magnetic fields). It is the 2nd strongest force, and it is the force that holds atoms in a molecule together. It can be attractive or repulsive, and it has an infinite range.

- Strong nuclear force: it is the strongest of all forces. It is responsible for holding the nucleons together inside the nucleus, and it is attractive. It has a very limited range (10^{-15}m), so it is relevant only at very small scales

- Weak nuclear force: it is the force responsible for radioactive decays and neutrino interactions. It also has a very short range (10^{-18} m

Looking at all these definitions, we see that the term that defines the force that acts between charged particles is the electromagnetic force.
