<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

the one with the highest specific heat

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius.
  • The specific heat of water is 1 calorie/gram °C or 4.186 joule/gram °C which is higher than any other common substance.
  • <em><u>A metal with the highest specific heat will cause the greatest increase in temperature of water in a calorimeter because the metal would hold more heat, and then transfer the greater quantity of heat to the water.</u></em>

A vector points -43.0 units
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

To find the direction of this vector we need o find the angle that has a tangent of the y-component over the x-component:

tan^{-1}(\frac{11.1}{-43.0})=-14.5 but since we are in Q2 we have to add 180 degrees to that angle giving us 165.5 degrees
