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

An electron and a proton are both released from rest, midway between the plates of a charged parallel-plate capacitor. The only
topjm [15]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the potential difference between the middle point and one of the plate be ΔV .

electric potential energy will be lost and it will be converted into kinetic energy .

Electrical potential energy lost = Vq , where q is charge on charge particle .

For proton

ΔV× q = 1/2 M V² ( kinetic energy of proton )

where M is mass and V be final velocity of proton .

For electron

ΔV× q = 1/2 m v² ( kinetic energy of electron  )

where m is mass and v be final velocity of electron . Charges on proton and electron are same in magnitude .

As LHS of both the equation are same , RHS will also be same . That means the kinetic energy of both proton and electron will be same

1/2 M V² =  1/2 m v²

(V / v )² = ( m / M )

(V / v ) = √ ( m / M )

In other words , their velocities  are  inversely proportional to square root of their masses .

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

a. 12.12°

b. 412.04 N

Explanation:

Along vertical axis, the equation can be written as

T_1 sin14 + T_2sinA = mg

T_2sinA = mg - T_1sin12.5           ....................... (a)

Along horizontal axis, the equation can be written as

T_2×cosA = T_1×cos12.5    ......................... (b)

(a)/(b) given us

Tan A = (mg - T_1sin12.5) / T_1 cos12.5

 = (176 - 413sin12.5) / 413×cos12.5

A = 12.12 °

(b) T2 cosA = T1 cos12.5

T2 = 413cos12.5/cos12.12

= 412.04 N
