Answer:c
Explanation:
Given
Alice launches with horizontal velocity
Tom simply drops straight down from the edge
Time taken by both the person is same as they have same initial vertical velocity i.e. zero so the time taken to reach the ground is zero.
Although Alice will travel more horizontal distance compared to Tom.
Thus option c is correct
The complete sentence is:
A calorimeter directly measures changes in temperature in order to calculate specific heat.
In fact, the amount of energy acquired/released by a substance is directly proportional to its change in temperature due to the equation
where Q is the amount of energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cs is the specific heat of the substance and is the change in temperature. Therefore, by knowing Q, m and by measuring the change in temperature, it is possible to calculate Cs, the specific heat capacity of the substance.
