How many joules of heat must be transferred to a 410-g aluminum pizza pan to raise its temperature from 32oC to 232oC? The speci

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

recall that heat absorbed released is given by

Q = mc*(T2 - T1)

where

m = mass (in g)

c = specific heat capacity (in J/g-k)

T = temperature (in C or K)

*note: Q is (+) when heat is absorbed and (-) when heat is released.

substituting,

Q = (480)*(0.97)*(234 - 22)

Q = 98707 J = 98.7 kJ

The kinetic energy of a proton and that of an a-particle are 4 eV and 1 eV,

madam [21]

Answer:

<u><em>(b) 1:1</em></u>

Explanation:

<u></u>

<u>1. Formulae:</u>

E = hf

E = h.v/λ

λ = h/(mv)

E = (1/2)mv²

Where:

E = kinetic energy of the particle
λ = de-Broglie wavelength
m = mass of the particle
v = speed of the particle
h = Planck constant

<u><em>2. Reasoning</em></u>

An alha particle contains 2 neutrons and 2 protons, thus its mass number is 4.

A proton has mass number 1.

Thus, the relative masses of an alpha particle and a proton are:

$\dfrac{m_\alpha}{m_p}=4$

For the kinetic energies you find:

$\dfrac{E_\alpha}{E_p}=\dfrac{m_\alpha \times v_\alpha^2}{m_p\times v_p^2}$

$\dfrac{1eV}{4eV}=\dfrac{4\times v_\alpha^2}{1\times v_p^2}\\\\\\\dfrac{v_p^2}{v_\alpha^2}=16\\\\\\\dfrac{v_p}{v_\alpha}=4$

Thus:

$\dfrac{m_\alpha}{m_p}=4=\dfrac{v_p}{v__\alpha}$

$m_\alpha v_\alpha=m_pv_p$

From de-Broglie equation, λ = h/(mv)

$\dfrac{\lambda_p}{\lambda_\alpha}=\dfrac{m_\lambda v_\lambda}{m_pv_p}=\dfrac{1}{1}=1:1$
