Answer:
The specific heat capacity of the zinc metal measured in this experiment is 0.427 J/g.°C
Explanation:
From the experimental data, the water loses heat because its initial temperature is greater than the final temperature of the mixture. On the other hand, the zinc metal gains heat because its initial temperature is less than the final temperature of the mixture
Heat loss by water = Heat gain by zinc metal
m1C1(T1 - T3) = m2C2(T3 - T2)
m1 is mass of water = 55.4 g
C1 is specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g.°C
m2 is mass of zinc metal = 23.4 g
C2 is specific heat capacity of zinc metal
T1 is the initial temperature of water = 99.61 °C
T2 is the initial temperature of zinc metal = 21.6 °C
T3 is the final temperature of the mixture = 96.4 °C
55.4×4.2(99.61 - 96.4) = 23.4×C2(96.4 - 21.6)
746.9028 = 1750.32C2
C2 = 746.9028/1750.32 = 0.427 J/g.°C
Answer:
4800
Explanation:
The change in velocity of the car is 17-13=4m/s. Since the change in momentum is the mass multiplied by the change in velocity, the answer is 4*1200=4800. Hope this helps!
Answer:
a
The speed of wave is 
b
The new speed of the two waves is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the string is 
The length is 
The tension is 
Now the velocity of the first wave is mathematically represented as
Where 
is the linear density which is mathematically represented as
substituting values
So
Now given that the Tension, mass and length are constant the velocity of the second wave will same as that of first wave (reference PHYS 1100 )
