A 100g sample of hot copper is placed in a coffee cup calorimeter containing 100 grams of water at room temperature. After some

time the temperature of the water and the copper become a constant at 50˚C. Calculate the initial temperature of the copper piece. The specific heat of copper is 0.385 J/g˚C. The specific heat of liquid water is 4.184 J/g˚C.

Answer:

356^{\circ}C

Explanation:

When the hot copper and the liquid water reaches equilibrium, they have the same temperature; when this happens, the amount of heat released by the copper is equal to the amount of heat absorbed by the water:

-Q_c = Q_w\\-m_c C_c (T_f-T_c) = m_w C_w (T_f-T_w)

where

m_c = 100 g is the mass of the copper

C_c=0.385 J/g˚C is the specific heat of copper

T_f=50˚C is the final temperature of both substances

m_w = 100 g is the mass of the water

C_w=4.184 J/g˚C is the specific heat of the water

T_c is the initial temperature of the copper

T_w=20˚C is the initial temperature of the water (room temperature)

Solving for T_c, we find:

T_c = T_f + \frac{m_w C_w (T_f-T_w)}{m_c C_c}=50^{\circ} +\frac{(100 g)(4.184 J/gC) (50C-20C)}{(100 g)(0.385 J/gC)}=356^{\circ} C

Suppose a large housefly 3.0 m away from you makes sound with an intensity level of 40.0 dB. What would be the sound intensity l
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the intensity of the noise be represented by I

Given that

40dB = 10 log 10 ⁡ ( I /I•) ........ 1

I• is the lowest or threshold intensity of sound made.

I represents the intensity of the sound/ noise

The intensity of noise of 1000flies will be

β = 10 log 10 ⁡(1000I/I•)

Open up the bracket

β = 10 log 10(1000)+ 10 log 10(I/I•)

10 log 10(10^3)+10 log 10(I/I•)

3×10(10 log 10) +10 log 10(I/I•)

Recall, 10 log 10 = 1

30×1 + 10 log 10(I/I•).........2

Put equation 1 into 2

β =30+40

= 70db

A wheel moves in the xy plane in such a way that the location of its center is given by the equations xo = 12t3 and yo = R = 2,
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

the velocity of the point P located on the horizontal diameter of the wheel at t = 1.4 s  is   P =  104.04 \hat{i} -314.432 \hat{j}

Explanation:

The free-body  diagram below shows the interpretation of the question; from the diagram , the wheel that is rolling in a clockwise directio will have two velocities at point P;

  • the peripheral velocity that is directed downward (-V_y) along the y-axis
  • the linear velocity (V_x) that is directed along the x-axis

Now;

V_x = \frac{d}{dt}(12t^3+2) = 36 t^2

V_x = 36(1.7)^2\\\\V_x = 104.04\ ft/s

Also,

-V_y = R* \omega

where \omega(angular velocity) = \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(8t^4)

-V_y = 2*32t^3)\\\\\\-V_y = 2*32(1.7^3)\\\\-V_y = 314.432 \ ft/s

∴ the velocity of the point P located on the horizontal diameter of the wheel at t = 1.4 s  is   P =  104.04 \hat{i} -314.432 \hat{j}
