A 360-g metal container, insulated on the outside, holds 180.0 g of water in thermal equilibrium at 22.0°C. A 24.0-g ice cube, a

t the melting point, is dropped into the water, and when thermal equilibrium is reached the temperature is 15.0°C. Assume there is no heat exchange with the surroundings. For water, the specific heat capacity is 4190 J/kg ∙ K and the heat of fusion is 3.34 × 105 J/kg. What is the specific heat capacity of the metal of the container?

Answer: specific heat capacity of the metal of the container

Cm=1143.1J/kg ∙ K

Explanation:

Step one

Given the following data

Mass of metal container Mm=360g

Mass of water Mw=180g

Mass of ice Mice=24g

T1=22°C

T2=15°C

specific heat capacity of water

Cw = 4190 J/kg ∙ K

the heat of fusion of ice

Lf= 3.34 × 10^5 J/kg.

specific heat capacity of the metal of the container Cm=?

Step two

Heat loss by ice cube =

heat gained by water + heat gained by metal container

I.e

Mice*Lice= MwCw(T1-T2)w

+MmCm(T1-T2)

Substituting our data we have

24*3.4*10^5=180*4190*(22-15)

+360*Cm*(22-15)

8160000=754200*7+2520Cm

8160000=5279400+2520Cm

8160000-5279400 =2520Cm

2880600=2520Cm

Divide both side by 2520

2880600/2520=Cm

Cm=1143.1J/kg ∙ K

The specialty of an athlete on the women's track team is the pole vault. She has a mass of 48 kg and her approach speed is 8.9 m
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

H = 3.9 m

Explanation:

mass (m) = 48 kg

initial velocity (initial speed) (U) = 8.9 m/s

final velocity (V) = 1.6 m/s

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

find the height she raised her self to as she crosses the bar (H)

from energy conservation, the change in kinetic energy = change in potential energy

0.5m(V^{2} - [test]U^{2}[/tex]) = mg(H-h)

where h = initial height = 0 since she was on the ground

the equation becomes

0.5m(V^{2} - [test]U^{2}[/tex]) = mgH

0.5 x 48 x (1.6^{2} - [test]8.9^{2}[/tex]) = 48 x 9.8 x H

-1839.6 = 470.4 H  (the negative sign indicates a decrease in kinetic energy so we would not be making use of it further)

H = 3.9 m

A 87 arrow is fired from a bow whose string exerts an average force of 105 on the arrow over a distance of 75 .
timofeeve [1]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

 

V^2 = 2AS = 2FS/M

V = sqrt(2FS/M) = sqrt(2*105*.75/.087) = 44.52817783 = 42.5 mps

So the speed of the arrow as it leaves the bow is 42.5 mps.

I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.

After being struck by a bowling ball, a 1.3 kg bowling pin sliding to the right at 5.0 m/s collides head-on with another 1.3 kg
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

a) 4.2m/s

b) 5.0m/s

Explanation:

This problem is solved using the principle of conservation of linear momentum which states that in a closed system of colliding bodies, the sum of the total momenta before collision is equal to the sum of the total momenta after collision.

The problem is also an illustration of elastic collision where there is no loss in kinetic energy.

Equation (1) is a mathematical representation of the the principle of conservation of linear momentum for two colliding bodies of masses m_1 and m_2 whose respective velocities before collision are u_1 and u_2;

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2..............(1)

where v_1 and v_2 are their respective velocities after collision.

Given;

m_1=1.3kg\\u_1=5m/s\\m_2=1.3kg\\u_2=0m/s

Note that u_2=0 because the second mass m_2 was at rest before the collision.

Also, since the two masses are equal, we can say that m_1=m_2=m so that equation (1) is reduced as follows;

mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\\\m(u_1+u_2)=m(v_1+v_2)..............(2)

m cancels out of both sides of equation (2), and we obtain the following;

u_1+u_2=v_1+v_2.............(3)

a) When v_1=0.8m/s, we obtain the following by equation(3)

5+0=0.8+v_2\\hence\\v_2=5-0.8\\v_2=4.2m/s

b) As m_1 stops moving v_1=0, therefore,

5+0=0+v_2\\v_2=5m/s
