Answer:

1,327,063Joules

Explanation:

Heat energy is the energy needed to convert the state of a body from one phase to another.

According to the question, we want to calculate the total heat required to convert water into vapour (steam).

Note that before water can vapourize, it has to reach the boiling point first which is at 100°C. Heat energy needed to convert the water to 100°C is expressed as H1 = mcΔθ

m is the mass of the object in kg =0.5kg

c is the spcific heat capacity of water = 4183J/kg°C

Δθ is the change in temperature = 100-28 = 72°C

H1 = 0.5*4183*72

H1 = 150,588Joules

Energy required to convert the water to team H2 =mLsteam

Lsteam is the latent heat of vaporization = 2.26×10⁶J/kg

H2 = 0.5*2.26×10⁶

H2 = 1130000Joules

Heat energy needed to convert the water to 150°C is expressed as H3 = mcΔθ

m is the mass of the object in kg =0.5kg

c is the spcific heat capacity of steam= 1859J/kg°C

Δθ is the change in temperature = 150-100 = 50°C

H3 = 0.5*1859*50

H1 = 46,475Joules

Total Heat requires = H1+H2+H3 = 150,588Joules+1130000Joules+ 46,475Joules = 1,327,063Joules

After 24.0 days 2.00 milligrams of an original 128.0. Milligram sample remain what is the half life of the sample
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

4 days

either multiply 128 by .5 until you get to 2 counting each time or use 2 formulas ln(n2/n1)=-k(t2-t1) to get k then input k into ln(2)=k*t1/2

n2 is final amount and n1 is beginning and t is either time elapsed as in the first formula or the actual half life that is t1/2

Describe a scenario when you could use energy but not do any work.
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

When you don't move, you still use energy. This energy is called potential energy, or, stored energy.

When you don't move or do work, you can use energy.

In a solution,a Is the substance being dissolved
Elena-2011 [213]
In a solution, a SOLUTE is the substance being dissolved.

In a solution, a SOLVENT is the substance in which something is dissolved.

For example in salt water, the salt is the solute. And the water is the solvent. Usually, which substance has a larger amount in the solution can be called a solvent. It doesn't matter if it's a gas, solid, or liquid. They can all be solute or solvents.

A speeder passes a parked police car at a constant speed of 23.3 m/s. At that instant, the police car starts from rest with a un
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

32s

Explanation:

We must establish that by the time the police car catches up to the speeder, both have travelled a certain distance during the same amount of time. However, the police car experiences accelerated motion whereas the speeder travels at a constant velocity. Therefore we will establish two formulas for distance starting with the speeder's distance:

x=vt=23.3\frac{m}{s}t

and the police car distance:

x=vt+\frac{at^{2}}{2}=0+\frac{2.75\frac{m}{s^{2}} t^{2}}{2}=0.73\frac{m}{s^{2}}

Since they both travel the same distance x, we can equal both formulas and solve for t:

0 = 0.73\frac{m}{s^{2}}t^{2}-23.3\frac{m}{s} t\\\\0=t(0.73\frac{m}{s^{2}}t-23.3\frac{m}{s} )\\\\

Two solutions exist to the equation; the first one being t=0

The second solution will be:

0.73\frac{m}{s^{2}}t=23.3\frac{m}{s}\\\\t=\frac{23.3\frac{m}{s}}{0.73\frac{m}{s^{2}}}=32s

This result allows us to confirm that the police car will take 32s to catch up to the speeder
