Determine the specific heat of a certain metal if a 450 gram sample of it loses 34 500 Joules of heat as its temperature starts

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

c = 0.4356 J/gK

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 450 grams

Initial temperature, T1 = 150°C

Final temperature, T2 = 53°C

Quantity of heat = 34500 Joules

To find the specific heat capacity of the metal;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

$Q = mcdt$

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 53 - 150

dt = -97°C

Converting the temperature in Celsius to Kelvin, we have;

dt = 273 + (-97) = 176 Kelvin

Making c the subject of formula, we have;

$c = \frac {Q}{mdt}$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$c = \frac {34500}{450*176}$

$c = \frac {34500}{79200}$

c = 0.4356 J/gK

Vesna [10]

Work is the amount of energy transferred

Explanation:

In physics, work is a measure of the energy transfer occurring in a process. Typically, we talk about work when energy is converted from one form into another.

For instance, work is done when a force is applied on an object. The work done on the object is given by:

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

We notice the following:

No work is done when the force is perpendicular to the displacement ( $cos 90^{\circ}=0$ )
The work is maximum when the force is parallel to the displacement

Whenever work is done, there is also an energy transfer taking place. For instance, in the previous example, when the force is applied to the object, the object will accelerate (assume there is no friction), and will gain kinetic energy: therefore, there is a transfer of energy to the object.

The first and second coils have the same length, and the third and fourth coils have the same length. They differ only in the cr

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

$\frac{R_2}{R_1}=\frac{A_1}{A_2}\\\frac{R_4}{R_3}=\frac{A_3}{A_4}$

Explanation:

The resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to its length and is inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area, this dependence is given by:

$R=\frac{\rho L}{A}$

$\rho$ is the material's resistance, L is the legth and A is the cross-sectional area.

For the first and second coils, we have:

$R_1=\frac{\rho L}{A_1}\\R_2=\frac{\rho L}{A_2}\\\rho L=R_1A_1\\\rho L=R_2A_2\\R_1A_1=R_2A_2\\\frac{R_2}{R_1}=\frac{A_1}{A_2}$

For the third and fourth coils, we have:

$R_3=\frac{\rho L'}{A_3}\\R_4=\frac{\rho L'}{A_4}\\\rho L'=R_3A_3\\\rho L'=R_4A_4\\R_3A_3=R_4A_4\\\frac{R_4}{R_3}=\frac{A_3}{A_4}$
