Answer: Q = m c ΔT

Explanation:

Amount of heat required to raise the temperature of an object is give by the equation:

Q = m c ΔT

Where, m is the mass of the object, c is the specific heat and ΔT is the rise in temperature.

It is given that the specific heat of copper is c = .385 J/g°C

Mass of copper, m = 0.90 g

Change in temperature, ΔT = 26°C - 9°C = 17°C

Then amount of heat required to raise the temperature of given amount of copper is:

Q = m c ΔT ⇒ Q = 0.90 g × .385 J/g°C × 17°C = 5.89 J

Thus, 5.89 J is needed to raise the temperature of 0.90 g of copper from 9°C to 26°C.

A car is traveling in a race. The car went from the initial velocity of 35 m/s to the final velocity of 65 m/s in 5 seconds. Wha
vekshin1

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed after the change) - (speed before the change)

Change in speed = (65 m/s) - (35 m/s)  =  30 m/s

Acceleration = (30 m/s) / (5 s)

<em>Acceleration = 6 m/s²</em>

a waterwheel built in Hamah, Syria, has a radius of 20 m . If the tangential velocity at the wheels edge is 7.85 m/s , what is t
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

3.08m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Radius = 20m

Tangential velocity  = 7.85m/s

Unknown:

Centripetal acceleration  = ?

Solution:

Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration of a body along a circular path.

 it is mathematically given as;

       a  = \frac{v^{2} }{r}  

v is the tangential velocity

r is the radius

      a  = \frac{7.85^{2} }{20}   = 3.08m/s²

You’ve just discovered that you are blood type O negative, highly valuable because it can be given to almost anyone in a life-th
Karolina [17]

Answer:

A) true

33) Osha data : true

34 ) False

Explanation:

A) Karl Landsteiner was the first to classify blood on the basis of modern theory .

33) OSHA ( Occupational Safety and Health Administration ) data relates to the safety measures that are taken by a unit or firm to avoid hazardous situation for their workforce.

34 ) There are as many as 150 points in an average finger prints that can be compared. Some country  like England requires 16 point identification , some like France requires 17 points identification. So The statement is wrong.

An electron (restricted to one dimension) is trapped between two rigid walls 1.40 nm apart. The electron's energy is approximate
Bumek [7]

Answer:

a)    n = 9.9       b)      E₁₀ = 19.25 eV

Explanation:

Solving the Scrodinger equation for the electronegative box we get

         Eₙ = (h² / 8m L²2) n²

where l is the distance L = 1.40 nm = 1.40 10⁻⁹ m and n the quantum number

 In this case En = 19 eV let us reduce to the SI system

          En = 19 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1 eV) = 30.4 10⁻¹⁹ J

          n = √ (In 8 m L² / h²)

let's calculate

          n = √ (8  9.1 10⁻³¹ (1.4 10⁻⁹)²  30.4 10⁻¹⁹ / (6.63 10⁻³⁴)²

          n = √ (98)            n = 9.9

since n must be an integer, we approximate them to 10

b) We substitute for the calculation of energy

        In = (h² / 8mL2² n²

        In = (6.63 10⁻³⁴) 2 / (8 9.1 10⁻³¹  (1.4 10⁻⁹)² 10²

        E₁₀ = 3.08 10⁻¹⁸ J

we reduce eV

      E₁₀ = 3.08 10⁻¹⁸ j (1ev / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹J)

      E₁₀ = 1.925 101 eV

      E₁₀ = 19.25 eV

the result with significant figures is

        E₁₀ = 19.25 eV
