How does gravity effect acceleration

1 answer:

7 0

Gravity is acceleration! You've probably heard of the "force of gravity," and you may have heard of the equation "F=ma." What this equation means is that the force on an object is the same as the mass of the object multiplied by how much it's being accelerated.

Calculate the final temperature of a mixture of 0.350 kg of ice initially at 218°C and 237 g of water initially at 100.0°C.

kramer

Answer:

115 ⁰C

Explanation:

Step 1: The heat needed to melt the solid at its melting point will come from the warmer water sample. This implies

$q_{1} +q_{2} =-q_{3}$ -----eqution 1

where,

$q_{1}$ is the heat absorbed by the solid at 0⁰C

$q_{2}$ is the heat absorbed by the liquid at 0⁰C

$q_{3}$ the heat lost by the warmer water sample

Important equations to be used in solving this problem

$q=m *c*\delta {T}$ , where -----equation 2

q is heat absorbed/lost

m is mass of the sample

c is specific heat of water, = 4.18 J/0⁰C

$\delta {T}$ is change in temperature

Again,

$q=n*\delta {_f_u_s}$ -------equation 3

where,

q is heat absorbed

n is the number of moles of water

tex]\delta {_f_u_s}[/tex] is the molar heat of fusion of water, = 6.01 kJ/mol

Step 2: calculate how many moles of water you have in the 100.0-g sample

$=237g *\frac{1 mole H_{2} O}{18g} = 13.167 moles of H_{2}O$

Step 3: calculate how much heat is needed to allow the sample to go from solid at 218⁰C to liquid at 0⁰C

$q_{1} = 13.167 moles *6.01\frac{KJ}{mole} = 79.13KJ$

This means that equation (1) becomes

79.13 KJ + $q_{2} = -q_{3}$

Step 4: calculate the final temperature of the water

$79.13KJ+M_{sample} *C*\delta {T_{sample}} =-M_{water} *C*\delta {T_{water}$

Substitute in the values; we will have,

$79.13KJ + 237*4.18\frac{J}{g^{o}C}*(T_{f}-218}) = -350*4.18\frac{J}{g^{o}C}*(T_{f}-100})$

79.13 kJ + 990.66J* $(T_{f}-218})$ = -1463J* $(T_{f}-100})$

Convert the joules to kilo-joules to get

79.13 kJ + 0.99066KJ* $(T_{f}-218})$ = -1.463KJ* $(T_{f}-100})$

$79.13 + 0.99066T_{f} -215.96388= -1.463T_{f}+146.3$

collect like terms,

2.45366 $T_{f}$ = 283.133

∴ $T_{f} =$ = 115.4 ⁰C

Approximately the final temperature of the mixture is 115 ⁰C

a car traveling at a velocity of 2 m/s undergoes an acceleration of 4.5 m/s^2 over a distance of 340 m. How fast will it be goin

ra1l [238]

Vi = 2m/s
a= 4.5 m/s
d= 340 m
vf= ?

use this equation ... vf^2=vi^2+2ad

you should get vf = 55.3
hope this helps
