Latent heat of fusion definition and explanation

Physics
1 answer:
pogonyaev4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The enthalpy of fusion of a substance, also known as heat of fusion, is the change in its enthalpy resulting from providing energy, typically heat, to a specific quantity of the substance to change its state from a solid to a liquid, at constant pressure.

Four equal masses m are so small they can be treated as points, and they are equally spaced along a long, stiff wire of neglible
anyanavicka [17]

Answer: 5m/L^2

Explanation:

Inertial I = mr^2 where r = distance from axis of rotation, while m is the mass of the object.

I = 2[m(1L/2)^2] + 2[m(3L/2)^2] = 2m×. 25/L^2+ 3m×2. 25/L^2= 0. 5m/l^2 +4. 5m/l^2

= 5m/l^2.

What is the kinetic energy of a hammer that starts from rest and decreases its potential energy by 10 kJ?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

final kinetic energy of the hammer is 10 kJ

Explanation:

As we know that there is no non conservative force on the system

So here we can use the theory of mechanical energy conservation

So we will have

\Delta K + \Delta U = 0

here we know that

\Delta U = - 10 kJ

from above expression now

K_f - K_i - 10 kJ = 0

K_f - 0 = 10 kJ

so final kinetic energy of the hammer is 10 kJ

A well lagged copper calorimeter of mas 120g contains 70g of water and 10g ice both at 0°C . Dry steam at 100°C is passed in unt
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

7.6 g

Explanation:

"Well lagged" means insulated, so there's no heat transfer between the calorimeter and the surroundings.

The heat gained by the copper, water, and ice = the heat lost by the steam

Heat gained by the copper:

q = mCΔT

q = (120 g) (0.40 J/g/K) (40°C − 0°C)

q = 1920 J

Heat gained by the water:

q = mCΔT

q = (70 g) (4.2 J/g/K) (40°C − 0°C)

q = 11760 J

Heat gained by the ice:

q = mL + mCΔT

q = (10 g) (320 J/g) + (10 g) (4.2 J/g/K) (40°C − 0°C)

q = 4880 J

Heat lost by the steam:

q = mL + mCΔT

q = m (2200 J/g) + m (4.2 J/g/K) (100°C − 40°C)

q = 2452 J/g m

Plugging the values into the equation:

1920 J + 11760 J + 4880 J = 2452 J/g m

18560 J = 2452 J/g m

m = 7.6 g

Can you please explain me how to do integration in physics in a easy way?
d1i1m1o1n [39]
The easiest way to explain it is roughly identical to the way that your teacher explained it in class.  If there were any easier way ... like writing it here in a few paragraphs ... then that's what the teacher would have done.  You would have been given the easy explanation on the first day of class, printed on one sheet of paper, and you would have had the rest of the year to practice it and get really good at it.
If the class spent a month teaching it, then that's about how long it takes.  Sorry.
