Years ago, a block of ice with a mass of about 20.0 kg was used daily in a home icebox. The temperature of the ice was 0.0°C whe

n it was delivered. As it melted, how much thermal energy did the ice absorb?

Answer: The ice absorb 6671.1 kJ of thermal energy.

Explanation:

The conversions involved in this process are :

$0.00^0C=273K$

$:H_2O(s)(273K)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(273K)$

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy change.

$\Delta H=n\times \Delta H_{fusion}$

where,

$\Delta H$ = enthalpy change = ?

m = mass of ice = 20.0 kg = $20.0\times 10^3g$ (1kg=1000g)

n = number of moles of ice= $\frac{\text{Mass of ice}}{\text{Molar mass of water}}=\frac{20.0\times 10^3g}{18g/mole}=1.11\times 10^3mole$

$\Delta H_{fusion}$ = enthalpy change for fusion = 6.01 KJ/mole = 6010 J/mole

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get

$\Delta H=1.11\times 10^3mole\times 6010J/mole$

$\Delta H=6671100J=6671.1kJ$ (1 kJ = 1000 J)

Therefore, the enthalpy change is, 6671.1 kJ

The mass of the uniform cantilever is 1100 kg. Determine the force on the beam at A. Determine the force on the beam at B. Use C

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Force A=-−2,697.75 N

Force B=13, 488.75 N

Explanation:

Taking moments at point A, the sum of clockwise and anticlockwise moments equal to zero.

25 mg-20Fb=0

25*1100g=20Fb

Fb=25*1100g/20=1375g

Taking g as 9.81 then Fb=1375*9.81=13,488.75 N

The sum of upward and downward forces are same hence Fa=1100g-1375g=-275g

-275*9.81=−2,697.75. Therefore, force A pulls downwards

Note that the centre of gravity is taken to be half the whole length hence half of 50 is 25 m because center of gravity is always at the middle

A transformer has two sets of coils, the primary with N1 = 160 turns and the secondary with N2 = 1400 turns. The input rms volta

vovikov84 [41]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the voltage in a coil, through the percentage relationship that exists between the voltage and the number of turns it has.

So things our data are given by

$N_1 = 160$

$N_2 = 1400$

$\Delta V_{1rms} = 62V$

PART A) Since it is a system in equilibrium the relationship between the two transformers would be given by

$\frac{N_1}{N_2} = \frac{\Delta V_{1rms}}{\Delta V_{2rms}}$

So the voltage for transformer 2 would be given by,

$\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{N_2}{N_1} \Delta V_{1rms}$

PART B) To express the number value we proceed to replace with the previously given values, that is to say

$\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{N_1}{N_2} \Delta V_{1rms}$

$\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{1400}{160} 62V$

$\Delta V_{2rms} = 1446.66V$

A string of 26 identical Christmas tree lights are connected in series to a 120 V source. The string dissipates 73 W. What is th

spin [16.1K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Ohm's law and Electric Power. By Ohm's law we know that resistance is equivalent to,

$R_{eq}= \frac{V}{I}$

Here,

V = Voltage

I = Current

While the power is equivalent to the product between the current and the voltage, thus solving for the current we have,

$P=VI \rightarrow I = \frac{P}{V}$

$I =0.608 A$

Applying Ohm's law

$R_{eq} = \frac{120V}{0.608A}$

$R_{eq} = 197.4\Omega$

Therefore the equivalent resistance of the light string is $197.4\Omega$

The coefficient of linear expansion of ordinary glass is three times that of Pyrex glass. An ordinary glass rod and a Pyrex glas

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

b. 3 times

Explanation:

Lets take

Coefficient for ordinary glass = α₁

Coefficient for pyrex glass = α₂

Given that α₁ = 3 α₂

Initial length of both glasses are equal = L

Change in the temperature is also same .= ΔT

We know that change in the length given as

ΔL = L α ΔT

Therefore

$\dfrac{\Delta L_1}{\Delta L_2}=\dfrac{L\alpha_1\Delta T}{L\alpha_2\Delta T}$

$\dfrac{\Delta L_1}{\Delta L_2}=\dfrac{3\alpha_2}{\alpha_2}$

ΔL₁ = 3ΔL₂

Therefore change in the length of original glass is three time of pyrex glass.

b. 3 times
