A jewellery melts 500g of Silver to pour into a mould. Calculate how much energy was released as the silver solidified.

irga5000 [103]

When silver is poured into the mould the it will solidify

In this process the phase of the Silver block will change from liquid to solid.

This phase change will lead to release in heat and this heat is known as latent heat of fusion.

The formula to find the latent heat of fusion is given as

$Q = mL$

here given that

$m = mass = 500 g$

$L = 111 kJ/kg$

now we can find the heat released

$Q = 0.5 * 111 kJ$

$Q = 55.5 kJ$

So it will release total heat of 55.5 kJ when it will solidify

The speed of an object changes only when it is acted on by an unbalanced force.

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

If an object has a net force acting on it, it will accelerate. The object will speed up, slow down or change direction. An unbalanced force (net force) acting on an object changes its speed and/or direction of motion. An unbalanced force is an unopposed force that causes a change in motion.

Two steel balls, of masses m1=1.00 kg and m2=2.00 kg, respectively, are hung from the ceiling with light strings next to each ot

Zolol [24]

Answer:

(a) The maximum height achieved by the first ball, m₁ is 0.11 m

(a) The maximum height achieved by the second ball, m₂ ball is 0.44 m

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the first ball, m₁ = 1 kg

mass of the second ball, m₂ = 2 kg

The velocity of the first when released from a height of 1 m before collision;

u₁² = u₀² + 2gh

u₀ = 0, since it was released from rest

u₁² = 2gh

u₁² = 2 x 9.8 x 1

u₁² = 19.6

u₁ = √19.6

u₁ = 4.427 m/s

The velocity of the second ball before collision, u₂ = 0

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum, to determine the velocity of the balls after an elastic collision.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

where;

v₁ is the final velocity of the first ball after an elastic collision

v₂ is the final velocity of the second ball after an elastic collision

m₁u₁ + m₂(0) = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

m₁u₁ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

1 x 4.427 = v₁ + 2v₂

v₁ + 2v₂ = 4.427

v₁ = 4.427 - 2v₂ ----- equation (1)

one directional velocity;

u₁ + v₁ = u₂ + v₂

u₂ = 0

u₁ + v₁ = v₂

v₁ = v₂ - u₁

v₁ = v₂ - 4.427 ------ equation (2)

Substitute v₁ into equation (1)

v₂ - 4.427 = 4.427 - 2v₂

3v₂ = 4.427 + 4.427

3v₂ = 8.854

v₂ = 8.854 / 3

v₂ = 2.95 m/s (→ forward direction)

v₁ = v₂ - 4.427

v₁ = 2.95 - 4.427

v₁ = - 1.477 m/s

v₁ = 1.477 m/s ( ← backward direction)

Apply the law of conservation of mechanical energy

$mgh_{max} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2$

(a) The maximum height achieved by the first ball (v₁ = 1.477 m/s)

$mgh_{max} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2 \\\\gh_{max} = \frac{1}{2}v_{max}^2\\\\ h_{max} = \frac{1}{2g}v_{max}^2\\\\ h_{max} = \frac{1}{2*9.8}(1.477^2)\\\\ h_{max} = 0.11 \ m$

(b) The maximum height achieved by the second ball (v₂ = 2.95 m/s)

$mgh_{max} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2 \\\\gh_{max} = \frac{1}{2}v_{max}^2\\\\ h_{max} = \frac{1}{2g}v_{max}^2\\\\ h_{max} = \frac{1}{2*9.8}(2.95^2)\\\\ h_{max} = 0.44 \ m$

A 1.60 m cylindrical rod of diameter 0.550 cm is connected to a power supply that maintains a constant potential difference of 1

bija089 [108]

1.

Answer:

Part a)

$\rho = 1.35 \times 10^{-5}$

Part b)

$\alpha = 1.12 \times 10^{-3}$

Explanation:

Part a)

Length of the rod is 1.60 m

diameter = 0.550 cm

now if the current in the ammeter is given as

$i = 18.7 A$

V = 17.0 volts

now we will have

$V = I R$

$17.0 = 18.7 R$

R = 0.91 ohm

now we know that

$R = \rho \frac{L}{A}$

$0.91 = \rho \frac{1.60}{\pi(0.275\times 10^{-2})^2}$

$\rho = 1.35 \times 10^{-5}$

Part b)

Now at higher temperature we have

$V = I R$

$17.0 = 17.3 R$

R = 0.98 ohm

now we know that

$R = \rho \frac{L}{A}$

$0.98 = \rho' \frac{1.60}{\pi(0.275\times 10^{-2})^2}$

$\rho' = 1.46 \times 10^{-5}$

so we will have

$\rho' = \rho(1 + \alpha \Delta T)$

$1.46 \times 10^{-5} = 1.35 \times 10^{-5}(1 + \alpha (92 - 20))$

$\alpha = 1.12 \times 10^{-3}$

2.

Answer:

Part a)

$i = 1.55 A$

Part b)

$v_d = 1.4 \times 10^{-4} m/s$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that current density is defined as

$j = \frac{i}{A}$

now we have

$i = jA$

Now we have

$j = 1.90 \times 10^6 A/m^2$

$A = \pi(\frac{1.02 \times 10^{-3}}{2})^2$

so we will have

$i = 1.55 A$

Part b)

now we have

$j = nev_d$

so we have

$n = 8.5 \times 10^{28}$

$e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C$

so we have

$1.90 \times 10^6 = (8.5 \times 10^{28})(1.6 \times 10^{-19})v_d$

$v_d = 1.4 \times 10^{-4} m/s$
