Heat supplied to the gold will raise the temperature of the gold from 20 degree Celsius to 90 degree Celsius.
Mass of the gold (m) = 0.072 kg
Temperature change (ΔT) = 90 - 20 = 70 degree Celsius
Specific heat capacity of the gold (c) = 136 J/kg C
Heat supplied = m × c × ΔT
Heat supplied = 0.072 × 136 × 70
Heat supplied = 685.44 Joules
Hence, the heat supplied to the gold to raise the temperature from 20 degree Celsius to 90 degree Celsius = 685.44 Joules
Answer:
Spring's displacement, x = -0.04 meters.
Explanation:
Let the spring's displacement be x.
Given the following data;
Mass of each shrew, m = 2.0 g to kilograms = 2/1000 = 0.002 kg
Number of shrews, n = 49
Spring constant, k = 24 N/m
We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8 m/s².
To find the spring's displacement;
At equilibrium position:
Fnet = Felastic + Fg = 0
But, Felastic = -kx
Total mass, Mt = nm
Fg = -Mt = -nmg
-kx -nmg = 0
Rearranging, we have;
kx = -nmg
Making x the subject of formula, we have;

Substituting into the formula, we have;


x = -0.04 m
Therefore, the spring's displacement is -0.04 meters.
During cytokinesis, the cytoplasm of the cell is divided in half, and the cell membrane grows to enclose each cell, forming two separate cells as a result. The end result of mitosis and cytokinesis is two genetically identical cells where only one cell existed before.
