In order for the current to continue flowing through the circuit (and for the bulbs to continue shining), there must be a closed path containing the battery where current can flow. Let's see the effect of removing each bulb on the circuit:

- 1: when removing bulb 1 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 3- bulb 4

- 2: when removing bulb 2 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 3- bulb 4

- 3: when removing bulb 3 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 1-bulb 2- bulb 4

- 4: when removing bulb 4 only, the current can no longer flow. In fact, there is no closed path that contains the battery now, so the current will not flow and all the bulbs will stop shining.

How many milliliters of water at 25.0°C with a density of 0.997 g/mL must be mixed with 162 mL of coffee at 94.6°C so that the r

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

The volume of water is 139 mL.

Explanation:

Due to the Law of conservation of energy, the heat lost by coffee is equal to the heat gained by the water, that is, the sum of heats is equal to zero.

$Q_{coffee} + Q_{water} = 0\\Q_{coffee} = - Q_{water}$

The heat (Q) can be calculated using the following expression:

$Q=c \times m \times \Delta T$

where,

c is the specific heat of each substance

m is the mass of each substance

ΔT is the difference in temperature for each substance

The mass of coffee is:

$162mL.\frac{0.997g}{mL} = 162g$

Then,

$Q_{coffee} = - Q_{water}\\c_{c} \times m_{c} \times \Delta T_{c} = -c_{w} \times m_{w} \times \Delta T_{w}\\m_{c} \times \Delta T_{c} = -m_{w} \times \Delta T_{w}\\m_{w} = \frac{m_{c} \times \Delta T_{c}}{-\Delta T_{w}} \\m_{w}=\frac{162g \times (62.5 \°C - 94.6 \°C ) }{-(62.5 \°C - 25.0 \°C)} \\m_{w} = 139 g$

The volume of water is:

$139g.\frac{1mL}{0.997g} =139mL$
