what happens to the specific heat capacity of a material if it changes state? i.e. from solid to liquid

Physics

Zigmanuir [339]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A solid substance at its melting point has less energy than the same mass of the substance when it is a liquid at the same temperature. ... This heat energy allows the change of state to happen, and the temperature remains constant during the process.

A ball is thrown horizontally from a 16 m -high building with a speed of 2.0 m/s .
BigorU [14]

Answer:

3.61 m

Explanation:

First, find how long it takes to land.

Given (in the y direction):

Δy = 16 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(16 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 1.81 s

Given (in the x direction):

v₀ = 2.0 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 1.81 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (2.0 m/s) (1.81 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.81 s)²

Δx = 3.61 m

In a simple electric generator, a conducting loop of wire is placed in a magnetic field. The loop of wire is then rotated. Why i
kaheart [24]

Explanation:

If a coil of wire is placed in a magnetic field and rotated, an alternating (sinusoidal) current is induced. As it rotates, sometimes it is cutting through lots of magnetic flux, and so lots of current is

induced.

At other times, it is moving parallel to

the flux, and so no flux is cut, and no current is induced. In between, some current is induced. This creates an alternating current. Either end of the coil can be connected to wires outside of the generator in order to use the current elsewhere. This would be fine for the

first few rotations, but after this, the wires would get tangled up and the generator would be useless. To avoid this, we use a commutator. In an AC generator, this is a pair of rotating conducting 'slip rings' attached to either end of the coil. Carbon brushes bring these into contact with the outside world.

What is latent heat energy's definiton
tamaranim1 [39]
The heat energy which has to be supplied to change the state of a substance is called its latent heat. Latent heat does not increase the kinetic energy of the particles of the substance, so the temperature of a substance does not rise during the change of state. :))

A 10-g bullet moving horizontally with a speed of 1.8 km/s strikes and passes through a 5.0-kg block initially at rest on a hori
UNO [17]

Answer:

6.4 J

Explanation:

m = mass of the bullet = 10 g = 0.010 kg

v = initial velocity of bullet before collision = 1.8 km/s = 1800 m/s

v'  = final velocity of the bullet after collision = 1 km/s = 1000 m/s

M = mass of the block = 5 kg

V = initial velocity of block before collision = 0 m/s

V'  = final velocity of the block after collision = ?

Using conservation of momentum

mv + MV = mv' + MV'

(0.010) (1800) + (5) (0) = (0.010) (1000) + (5) V'

V' = 1.6 m/s

Kinetic energy of the block after the collision is given as

KE = (0.5) M V'²

KE = (0.5) (5) (1.6)²

KE = 6.4 J
