Answer:

Explanation:

Heat capacity = mass x specific heat

heat capacity ∝ mass

∝ volume

heat capacity ∝ volume

H₁ / H₂ = V₁ / V₂

H₁ and H₂ are heat capacity corresponding to volume V₁ and V₂.

312 / 100000  = 1 / V₂

V₂ = 100000 / 312

= 320.51 cubic foot.

Answer:

you could measure several properties of

the unknown liquid and compare them with the properties of known

substances. You might observe and measure such properties as color,

odor, texture, density, boiling point, and freezing point.

Darren drives to school in rush hour traffic and averages 28 mph. He returns home in mid-afternoon when there is less traffic an
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

distance between school and home is 21 miles

Explanation:

given data

in rush hour speed  s1 = 28 mph

less traffic speed s2 = 42 mph

time t = 1 hr 15 min = 1.25 hr

to find out

distance  d

solution

we consider here distance home to school is d and t1 time to reach at school

we get here distance equation when we go home to school that is

distance = 28 × t1    .......................1

and when we go school to home distance will be

distance = 42 × ( t - t1 )

distance = 42 × ( 1.25 - t1 )     ...................2

so from equation 1 and 2

28 × t1 = 42 × ( 1.25 - t1 )

t1 = 0.75

so

from equation 1

distance = 28 × t1

distance = 28 × 0.75

distance = 21 miles

A conductor of radius r, length and resistivity ρ has resistance r. what is the new resistance if it is stretched to 4 times its
max2010maxim [7]
The resistance of a conductor is given by
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}
where L is the length of the wire, \rho the resistivity of the material and A the cross-sectional area.

We can see that if all the other quantities do not change, if the new length of the conductor is 4 times the original length: L'=4 L, then the new resistance is also 4 times the original value:
R'= \frac{\rho L'}{A}= \frac{\rho 4 L}{A}=4  \frac{\rho L}{A}=4 R
