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

47. A car travels 85 km in the first half hour of a trip. The car continues to travel for 2 more hours and travels 200 km. What
Otrada [13]

Answer: 114 km/h

Explanation:

The formula for determining average speed is expressed as

Average speed = total distance/total time

The car travels 85 km in the first half hour of a trip. The car continues to travel for 2 more hours and travels 200 km. It means that the total distance that the car travels is

85 + 200 = 285 km

The total time spent by the car is

0.5 + 2 = 2.5 hours

Therefore,

Average speed = 285/2.5 = 114 km/h

1) 29.4 N

The force of gravity between two objects is given by:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M and m are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the centres of mass of the two objects

In this problem, we have

M=5.97\cdot 10^{24} kg (mass of the Earth)

m=3.0 kg (mass of the box)

r=R=6.37\cdot 10^6 m (Earth's radius, which is also the distance between the centres of mass of the two objects, since the box is located at Earth's surface)

Substituting into the equation, we find F:

F=\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.97\cdot 10^{24})(3.0)}{(6.37\cdot 10^6)^2}=29.4 N

2) g=9.8 m/s^2

Let's now calculate the ratio F/m. We have:

F = 29.4 N

m = 3.0 kg

Subsituting, we find

\frac{F}{m}=\frac{29.4}{3.0}=9.8 N/kg = 9.8 m/s^2

This is called acceleration of gravity, and it is the acceleration at which every object falls near the Earth's surface. It is indicated with the symbol g.

We can prove that this is the acceleration of the object: in fact, according to Newton's second law,

F=ma

where a is the acceleration of the object. Re-arranging,

a=\frac{F}{m}

which is exactly equal to the quantity we have calculated above.
