If the specific heat of water is 1.0 calorie/gram°C, how many calories are required to raise 500 grams of water 10.0°C?

1 answer:

6 0

The amount of heat that is required to raise the temperature of a system is calculated by the expression:

Heat required = m Cp ΔT
Heat required = 500 g (1.0 calorie/gram °C) (10.0 <span>°C)
Heat required = 5000 calorie

The correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option.</span>

The drinking water needs of an office are met by cooling tab water in a refrigerated water fountain from 23 to 6°C at an average

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Explanation:

Here we have the Coefficient Of Performance, COP given by

$COP = \frac{Q_{cold}}{W} = 3.1$

The heat change from 23° to 6°C for a mass of 10 kg/h which is equivalent to 10/(60×60) kg/s or 2.78 g/s we have

$Q_{cold}$ = m·c·ΔT = 2.78 × 4.18 × (23 - 6) = 197.39 J

Therefore, plugging in the value for $Q_{cold}$ in the COP equation we get;

$COP = \frac{197.39 }{W} = 3.1$ which gives

$W = \frac{197.39 }{3.1} = 63.674 \ J$

Since we were working with mass flow rate then the power input is the same as the work done per second and the power input to the refrigerator = 63.674 J/s ≈ 64 W.

The power input to the refrigerator is approximately 64 W.

Explain how to make aluminum magnetic

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Use some Glue.. . . Aluminium is not magnetic, so your magnet can't sticl to aluminium without using Glue. You cannot get a magnet to stick to aluminum, no matter how hard you try. Aluminum is diamagnetic, which means it repels a magnetic field.
