A sample of an unknown substance has a mass of 0.465 kg. if 3,000.0 j of heat is required to heat the substance from 50.0°c to 1
hammer [34]

The specific heat of the substance will be 0.129 J/g°C.

<h3>What is specific heat capacity?</h3>

The amount of heat required to increase a substance's temperature by one degree Celsius is known as specific heat capacity.

Similarly, heat capacity is the relationship between the amount of energy delivered to a substance and the increase in temperature that results.

The given data in the problem is;

Q is the amount of energy necessary to raise the temperature = 3,000.0 j

M is the mass=  0.465 kg.

Δt is the time it takes to raise the temperature.=50°c

s stands for specific heat capacity=?

Mathematically specific heat capacity is given by;

\rm Q= MC \triangle t \\\\ C = \frac{Q}{M\triangle t} \\\\ C = \frac{3000}{0.465 \triangle 50} \\\\ C =129.0 J/Kg^0C \\\\ C= 0.129 J/g^0C

Hence the specific heat of the substance will be 0.129 J/g°C.

A scientist notices that an oil slick floating on water when viewed from above has many different colors reflecting off the surf
Sati [7]

Answer:

a) The minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot is 313 nm

b) the minimum thickness be now will be 125 nm

Explanation:  

Given the data in the question;

a) The index of refraction of the oil is 1.20. What is the minimum thickness of the oil slick at that spot?

t_{min = λ/2n

given that; wavelength λ = 750 nm and  index of refraction of the oil n = 1.20

we substitute

t_{min = 750 / 2(1.20)

t_{min = 750 / 2.4

t_{min = 312.5 ≈ 313 nm

Therefore, The minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot is 313 nm

b)

Suppose the oil had an index of refraction of 1.50. What would the minimum thickness be now?

minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot will be;

t_{min = λ/4n

given that; wavelength λ = 750 nm and  index of refraction of the oil n = 1.50

we substitute

t_{min = 750 / 4(1.50)

t_{min = 750 / 6

t_{min = 125 nm

Therefore, the minimum thickness be now will be 125 nm

A 13-kg sled is moving at a speed of 3.0 m/s. At which of the following speeds will the sled have twice as much kinetic energy?
AysviL [449]
K.E. = 1/2 mv²
K.E. is directly proportional to v^2
So, when K.E. increase by 2, K.E. increase by root. 2
v' = 1.41v
original v value was 3 so, final would be:
v' = 1.41*3 = 4.23
After round-off to it's tenth value, it will be:
v' = 4.2

So, option B is your answer!

Hope this helps!
