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

Solve the following quadratic equations:2x² - 4x - 9 = 0 x₊ = 1 + √22/2Answersx_ = 1 - √22/2
Pavel [41]

The root quadratic equation of 2x^{2}  - 4x - 9 = 0 is x=\frac{2+\sqrt{22}}{2},\:x=\frac{2-\sqrt{22}}{2}

What is the formula used to calculate the quadratic equation?

To solve the quadratic equation use the formula of x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Find the quadratic equation by using the formula ?

On comparing with 2x^{2}  - 4x - 9 = 0

We get , a=2 , b=-4 , c=-9

D=b^{2} +7\\\\\\=(-4)^{2} +7*2*(-9)\\\\=-16-126\\\\=110

By using the formula,

For a quadratic equation of the formax^2+bx+c=0 the solutions are

x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

X==\frac{-\left(-4\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-4\right)^2-4\c* \:2\left(-9\right)}}{2\c* \:2}\\\\\sqrt{\left(-4\right)^2-4\cdot \:2\left(-9\right)}\\\\

Apply rule,

-(-a)=a\\\\=\sqrt{\left(-4\right)^2+4\cdot \:2\cdot \:9}\\\\

Apply exponent rule,

(-a)^{n} =a^{n} if n is even

(-4)^{2} =4^{2}

\sqrt{4^2+4\cdot \:2\cdot \:9}

Multiply the numbers :

4*2*9=72\\\\\sqrt{4^2+4\cdot \:2\cdot \:9}\\\\4^{2} =16\\\\=\sqrt{16+72}\\\\

Add the number  =\sqrt{88}

Since there is no air resistance, gravity is the only force acting on the two objects - the bowling ball and the arrow. Therefore, they will hit the ground at the same time. Thus the answer is D. Both hit the ground at the same time. Hope this helped and have a great day!
