A 0.25-kg coffee mug is made from a material that has a specific heat capacity of 950 J/(kg · C°) and contains 0.30 kg of water.

The cup and water are at 25° C. To make a cup of coffee, a small electric heater is immersed in the water and brings it to a boil in two minutes. Assume that the cup and water always have the same temperature and determine the minimum power rating of this heater.

Answer:

The minimum power neccesary is:

P=932,4 W

Explanation:

The water is bring to a boil so it goes from 25°C to 100°C, the temperature rise si:

dT=100°C-25°C=75°C

Considering that the cup is always at the same temperatura as the water the trasfered energy can be calculated as:

Q=(m_{mug}*C_{p-mug}+m_{water}*C_{p-water})*dT

We have that: m_{mug}=0,25kg, C_{p-mug}=950 J/(kg.°C), m_{water}=0,30kg, C_{p-water}=4180 J/(kg.°C) (considering it constant)

So:

Q=(0,25kg*950 J/(kg.°C)+0,30kg*4181 J/(kg.°C))*75°C

Q=1491,8J/°C*75°C=111885 J

Given that this energy was supplied in 2 minutes:

t=2 min=120 sec

The minimum power neccesary is:

P=\frac{Q}{t}=932,4 W

A 1400 kg car traveling at 17.0 m/s to the south collides with a 4700 kg truck that is at rest. The car and truck stick together
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Final velocity = 7.677 m/s

KE before crash = 202300 J

KE after crash = 182,702.62 J

Explanation:

We are given;

m1 = 1400 kg

m2 = 4700 kg

u1 = 17 m/s

u2 = 0 m/s

Using formula for inelastic collision, we have;

m1•u1 + m2•u2 = (m1 + m2)v

Where v is final velocity after collision.

Plugging in the relevant values;

(1400 × 17) + (4700 × 0) = (1400 + 1700)v

23800 = 3100v

v = 23800/3100

v = 7.677 m/s

Kinetic energy before crash = ½ × 1400 × 17² = 202300 J

Kinetic energy after crash = ½(1400 + 1700) × 7.677² = 182,702.62 J

A glass bottle of soda is sealed with a screw cap. The absolute pressure of the carbon dioxide inside the bottle is 1.90 x 105 P
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force is 34.59 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Inside pressure P_{in}= 1.90\times10^{5}\ Pa

Area A=3.90\times10^{-4}\ m^2

Outside pressure = 1 atm

We need to calculate the magnitude of the force

Using formula of force

F_{net}=F_{in}-F_{out}

F_{net}=(P_{in}-P_{out})A

Where, P_{in} =inside Pressure

P_{out} =outside Pressure

A = area

Put the value into the formula

F_{net}=(1.90\times10^{5}-1.013\times10^{5})3.90\times10^{-4}

F_{net}=34.59\ N

Hence, The magnitude of the force is 34.59 N.
