Case 1: A 0.780-kg silver pellet with a temperature of 85 oC is added to 0.150 kg of water in a copper cup of unknown mass. The

initial temperature of the water and the copper cup is 14 oC. The equilibrium temperature of the system (silver water copper cup) is measured to be 26.0 °C. Assume no heat is exchanged with the surroundings. The specific heats of silver, water and copper are: 234 J/(kg oC), 4186 J/(kg oC) and 387 J/(kg oC) , respectively. (a) Which substance releases heat

Answer: The silver pellet will release heat

Explanation:

Based on the case scenario, the silver pellet has a higher temperature that the system of water and copper cup and is thereby added to the system. Because of the higher kinetic energy of the molecules of silver in the silver pellet, some of energy will be released to the water and copper cup system because the system will aim to achieve thermal equilibrium.

Can something change states of matter how do you know
belka [17]
Yes, it can change states of matter from heat. Like ice, ice changes it’s state of matter from the temperature it is in, which causes it to turn into a liquid.(another form of matter) Again with heat, if water is boiled to a certain temperature it converts to a gas. Now with cold. If water is at such a coke temperature it will turn to ice, a form of matter. Now when a gas is cooled down, the atoms comprising the gas have less energy to move around.

Strong evidence for the existence of dark matter comes from observations of
adoni [48]

Answer:

NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and other telescopes such as the Hubble telescope.

Explanation:

Dark matter and normal matter have been wrenched apart by the tremendous collision of two large clusters of galaxies.

The above observations have provided the strongest evidence yet that most of the matter in the universe is dark.

A fish scale, consisting of a spring with spring constant k=200N/m, is hung vertically from the ceiling. A 2.6 kg fish is attach
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

The fish is initially at rest and it is also at rest when the spring is fully stretched at the maximum distance.

Change in gravity potential energy = change in spring potential energy

mgh = 1/2kh^2

Assume gravity constant g is 10m/s^2

2.6*10*h = 1/2*200*h^2

100h^2 - 26h = 0

2h(50h - 13) = 0

h = 0 or h = 13/50 = 0.65m

h = 0 is before the spring is stretched

So the maximum distance is 0.65m.

A solar eclipse will occur Group of answer choices
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

3. at new Moon only when the Moon is on the ecliptic.

Explanation:

  • Solar eclipse is the condition when the moon comes in between the sun and the earth. In this condition the moon casts its shadow on the earth.
  • Whether the eclipse is a total solar eclipse, a partial solar eclipse or an annular solar eclipse depends on various factors, but the position of the moon must be on the same orbital plane as that of the earth's orbit around the sun.
  • The sun is about 400 times larger than the moon in size and the sun is almost 400 times farther from the earth than the moon is, this makes it possible for the moon to cover the sun completely leading to a complete solar eclipse.
  • As we know that the orbit of the earth around the sun and the orbit of the moon around the earth is elliptical which leads to a variation in the distance from their rotating centers, so not of every eclipse the moon covers the sun completely developing an annular eclipse.
  • When the moon is close enough to the earth on the ecliptic but not completely aligned in between the sun and the earth leads to a partial solar eclipse.
