Answer:

T = 40.501\,^{\textdegree}C

Explanation:

The interaction of the piece of copper and water means that the first one need to transfer heat in order to reach a thermal equilibrium with water. Then:

-Q_{out,Cu} = Q_{in,H_{2}O}

After a quick substitution, the expanded expression is:

-(43.9\,g)\cdot (0.385\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-135^{\textdegree}C) = (254\,g)\cdot (4.187\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-39\,^{\textdegree}C)

-16.902\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C}\cdot (T-135^{\textdegree}C) = 1063.498\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C} \cdot  (T-39^{\textdegree}C)

43758,192\,J = 1080.4\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C}\cdot T

The final temperature of the system is:

T = 40.501\,^{\textdegree}C

Answer:

40.497 °C

Explanation:

Heat lost by copper = heat gained by water

CM(T₁-T₃) = cm(T₃-T₂)........................ Equation 1

Where C = specific heat capacity of copper, M = mass of copper, T₁ = Initial Temperature of copper, T₂ = Initial Temperature of water, T₃ = final temperature of the system,

Make T₃ the subject of the equation

T₃= (CMT₁+cmT₂)/(CM+cm)................. Equation 2

Given: C = 0.385 J/g°C, M = 43.9 g, c = 4.2 J/g°C, m = 254 g, T₁ = 135 °C, T₂ = 39 °C

Substitute into equation 2

T₃ = (0.385×43.9×135+4.2×254×39)/(0.385×43.9+4.2×254)

T₃ = (2281.70+41605.2)/(16.9015+1066.8)

T₃ = 43886.9/1083.7015

T₃ = 40.497 °C.

Hence the final temperature of the system = 40.497 °C

An experimental rocket designed to land upright falls freely from a height of 2.59 102 m, starting at rest. At a height of 86.9
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The acceleration required by the rocket in order to have a zero speed on touchdown is 19.96m/s²

The rocket's motion for analysis sake is divided into two phases.

Phase 1: the free fall motion of the rocket from the height 2.59*102m to a height 86.9m

Phase 2: the motion of the rocket due to the acceleration of the rocket also from the height 86.9m to the point of touchdown y = 0m.

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the rocket is 0m/s when it started falling from rest under free fall. g = 9.8m/s² t1 is the time taken for phase 1 and t2 is the time taken for phase2.

The final velocity under free fall becomes the initial velocity for the accelerated motion of the rocket in phase 2 and the final velocity or speed in phase 2 is equal to zero.

The detailed step by step solution to the problems can be found in the attachment below.

Thank you and I hope this solution is helpful to you. Good luck.

Which of the following has the lowest U value?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

c. expanded polyurethane

Explanation:

Thermal performance of a building fabric is measured in terms of heat loss and is expressed as U-value or R-value. U-value is the rate of heat transferred through a structure divided by the difference in temperature across the structure with a unit of measurement of W/m²K.You can calculate the U-value of a by getting the reciprocal of the sum of thermal resistances , R, making the building material.

If you have the value of R, then U=1/R

Material                         size            R                      U

plywood                          1"              1.25                0.8

Poured concrete            2"              0.99               1.010

Expanded polyurethane  1"            6.5                   0.1538

Asbestos shingles            1"             0.03                33.33

The material with lowest U-value is expanded polyurethane
