Answer: D) 0.031 cal / gram °C

Explanation:

Specific Heat can be defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 unit of mass by 1 degree.

Q = m c ΔT

where m is the mass, c is the specific heat and ΔT is the difference in temperatures. Q = 54.0 cal

m = 58.3 g

ΔT = 42° C- 12°C = 30°C

c = Q / (mΔT)

c = 54.0 cal / (58.3 g×30°C) = 0.031 cal /gram °C

A capacitor C is fully charged by connecting it to battery of V Volt. Then it is disconnected from battery. If the separation be
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

i )

When it is disconnected with the battery , the charge stored in it becomes fixed . When the plate distance becomes half , its capacitance becomes twice from C to 2C . Let charge stored in it at the time of disconnection from battery be Q . Let plate separation reduces from d to d / 2

So charged stored in it will remain unchanged .

ii )

Potential difference = charge / capacitance

in the first case potential difference = Q / C

in the second case potential difference = Q / 2C

So potential difference becomes half .

iii ) electric field = potential diff / plate separation

in the first case electric field = Q / (d x C )

in the second case electric field = 2 Q / (d x 2C)

= Q / (d  x C )

So electric field remains unchanged .

iv)

energy stored in first case = Q² / 2C

In the second case energy stored = Q² / 2x2C

so energy stored becomes half .

How does the force affect the rocks during collisions? *
Jet001 [13]

In a collision, there is a force on both objects that causes an acceleration of both objects; the forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. For collisions between equal-mass objects, each object experiences the same acceleration.

Compressions and rarefactions are characteristic of
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Of longitudinal waves

Explanation:

Depending on the direction of the oscillation, there are two types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the oscillations occur perpendicularly to the direction of propagation of the wave. Examples are electromagnetic waves.

- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the oscillations occur parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave. In such a wave, the oscillations are produced by alternating regions of higher density of particles, called compressions, and regions of lower density of particles, called rarefactions. Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

It is called surface tension it is the elastic personality of some liquids as they pull together to take up as little surface area as possible. the water molecules would rather stay together than be pulled apart<span />
