What amount of heat is required to raise the temperature of 200 g of water by 15°C (the specific heat of water is 1 cal/g°C)

Physics
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago

Answer:

Heat energy required (Q) = 3,000 J

Explanation:

Find:

Mass of water (M) = 200 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 15°C

Specific heat of water (C) = 1 cal/g°C

Find:

Heat energy required (Q) = ?

Computation:

Q = M × ΔT × C

Heat energy required (Q) = Mass of water (M) × Change in temperature (ΔT) × Specific heat of water (C)

Heat energy required (Q) = 200 g × 15°C × 1 cal/g°C

Heat energy required (Q) = 3,000 J

A man starts walking from home and walks 2 miles at 20° north of west, then 4 miles at 10° west of south, then 3 miles at 15° no
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

a)  R = 2.5 mi   b)  To return to your case you must walk in the opposite direction or θ = 98º

This is 8º north west

Explanation:

This is a distance exercise with vectors the best way to work these is to decompose the vectors and perform the sum on each axis separately

To use the Cartesian system all angles must be measured from the positive side of the x-axis or the signs of the components must be assigned manually depending on the quadrant where they are.

First vector A = 2 to 20º north west

Measured from the positive x axis is θ = 180 -20 = 160º

We use trigonometry to find the components

     Cos 20 = Aₓ / A

     sin 20 = A_{y} / A

    Aₓ = A cos 160 = 2 cos 160

    A_{y}  = A sin160 = 2 sin160

    Aₓ = -1,879 mi

    A_{y}  = 0.684 mi

Second vector B = 4 mi 10º west of the south

Angle θ = 270 - 10 = 260º

    cos 2600 = Bₓ / B

    sin 260 = B_{y} / B

    Bₓ = B cos 260

     B_{y}  = B sin 260

    Bₓ = 4 cos 260

     B_{y}  = 4 sin 260

     Bₓ = -0.6946mi

     B_{y}  = - 3,939 mi

Third vector C = 3 mi to 15 north east

     cos 15 = Cₓ / C

     sin15 = C_{y} / C

     Cₓ = C cos 15

     C_{y} = C sin15

     Cₓ = 3 cos 15

    C_{y} = 3 sin 15

     Cₓ = 2,898 mi

    C_{y} = 0.7765 mi

Now we can find the final position of the person

    X = Aₓ + Bₓ + Cₓ

    X = -1.879 -0.6949 + 2.898

    X = 0.3241 mi

    Y = A_{y} +  B_{y} + C_{y}

    Y = 0.684 - 3.939 +0.7765

    Y = -2.4785 mi

a) We use Pythagoras' theorem

     R = √ (x2 + y2)

     R = √ (0.3241 2 + (-2.4785) 2)

     R = 2.4996 mi

     R = 2.5 mi

b) let's use trigonometry

     Tan θ = y / x

     Tanθ  = -2.4785 / 0.3241

     θ = tan⁻¹ (-7,647)

     θ = -82

Measured from the positive side of the x axis is Te = 360 - 82 = 278º

(90-82) south east

To return to your case you must walk in the opposite direction or Te = 98º

This is 8º north west

A uniform thin wire is bent into a quarter-circle of radius a = 20.0 cm, and placed in the first quadrant. Determine the coordin
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

r_{cm}=[12.73,12.73]cm

Explanation:

The general equation to calculate the center of mass is:

r_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits {r} \, dm

Any differential of mass can be calculated as:

dm = \lambda*a*d\theta  Where "a" is the radius of the circle and λ is the linear density of the wire.

The linear density is given by:

\lambda=M/L=M/(a*\pi/2)=\frac{2M}{a\pi}

So, the differential of mass is:

dm = \frac{2M}{a\pi}*a*d\theta

dm = \frac{2M}{\pi}*d\theta

Now we proceed to calculate X and Y coordinates of the center of mass separately:

X_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits^{\pi/2}_0 {a*cos\theta*2M/\pi} \, d\theta

Y_{cm}=1/M*\int\limits^{\pi/2}_0 {a*sin\theta*2M/\pi} \, d\theta

Solving both integrals, we get:

X_{cm}=2*a/\pi=12.73cm

Y_{cm}=2*a/\pi=12.73cm

Therefore, the position of the center of mass is:

r_{cm}=[12.73,12.73]cm

How microwave tower work?​
Airida [17]

Answer:

Microwave towers are telecommunications towers that use microwaves to transmit telephone and television signals to other microwave towers.

Explanation:

This technology replaced existing transmission wires, but it is almost entirely obsolete as of 2015 due to the advent of fiber optics and other modern methods of telecommunication.
