Answer:

The temperature change in Celsius is 46°C.

The temperature change in Fahrenheit is 82.8°F.

Explanation:

A degree of Celsius scale is equal to that of kelvin scale; therefore,

$\Delta C = \Delta K = 283K-237K\\\\ \boxed{\Delta C = 46^oC}$

A degree in Fahrenheit is 1.8 times the Celsius degree; therefore

$\Delta F = 1.8(46^o)$

$\boxed{\Delta F = 82.8^oF}$

Hence, the temperature change in Celsius is 46°C, and the temperature change in Fahrenheit is 82.8°F.

Eddi Din [679]

To increase the centripetal acceleration to $2.00 m/s^2$ , you can double the speed or decrease the radius by 1/4

Explanation:

An object is said to be in uniform circular motion when it is moving at a constant speed in a circular path.

The acceleration of an object in uniform circular motion is called centripetal acceleration, and it is given by

$a=\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

v is the speed of the object

r is the radius of the circular path

In the problem, the original centripetal acceleration is

$a=0.50 m/s^2$

We want to increase it by a factor of 4, i.e. to

$a'=2.00 m/s^2$

We notice that the centripetal acceleration is proportional to the square of the speed and inversely proportional to the radius, so we can do as follows:

- We can double the speed:

v' = 2v

This way, the new acceleration is

$a'=\frac{(2v)^2}{r}=4(\frac{v^2}{r})=4a$

so, 4 times the original acceleration

- We can decrease the radius to 1/4 of its original value:

$r'=\frac{1}{4}r$

So the new acceleration is

$a'=\frac{v^2}{(r/4)}=4(\frac{v^2}{r})=4a$

so, the acceleration has increased by a factor 4 again.

What are three ways to speed up a<br> reaction?

Ksju [112]

Explanation:

Increase the temperature in Endothermic reactions (Reactions that absorb energy, or become cold) Decrease the temperature in Exothermic reactions (Reactions that release energy, or become hot) Add a catalyst (A substance that reduces activation energy, speeding up the reaction) Increase the concentration of reactants.

A bicycle wheel has a diameter of 63.0 cm and a mass of 1.75 kg. Assume that the wheel is a hoop with all of the mass concentrat

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

F2 = 834 N

Explanation:

We are given the following for the bicycle;

Diameter; d1 = 63 cm = 0.63 m

Mass; m = 1.75 kg

Resistive force; F1 = 121 N

For the sprocket, we are given;

Diameter; d2 = 8.96 cm = 0.0896 m

Radius; r2 = 0.0896/2 = 0.0448 m

Radial acceleration; α = 4.4 rad/s²

Now moment of inertia of the wheel which is assumed to be a hoop is given by; I = m(r1)²

Where r1 = (d1)/2 = 0.63/2

r1 = 0.315 m

Thus, I = 1.75 × 0.315²

I = 0.1736 Kg.m²

The torque is given by the relation;

I•α = F1•r1 - F2•r2

Where F2 is the force that must be applied by the chain to give the wheel an acceleration of 4.40 rad/s².

Thus;

0.1736 × 4.4 = (121 × 0.315) - (0.0448F2)

>> 0.76384 = 38.115 - (0.0448F2)

>> 0.0448F2 = 38.115 - 0.76384

>> F2 = (38.115 - 0.76384)/0.0448

>> F2 = 833.73 N

Approximately; F2 = 834 N

Who has the greater velocity, an astronaut who has just completed an orbit of the Earth or you when you have just traveled from

Alik [6]

Answer:

the answer is

Explanation:

constant acceleration

because when the object's velocity is changing then the object is accelerating or decelerating

as acceleration describe changing of velocity so the answer is constant acceleration

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

Acceleration = (Change in velocity) / time taken

Acceleration = (Final velocity - initial velocity) / time

As the object velocity changes by the same amount in each second, it means the acceleration is constant.

The energy from 0.015 moles of octane was used to heat 250 grams of water. The temperature of the water rose from 293.0 K to 371

arsen [322]

Answer : The correct option is, (B) -5448 kJ/mol

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the heat required by water.

$q=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)$

where,

q = heat required by water = ?

m = mass of water = 250 g

c = specific heat capacity of water = $4.18J/g.K$

$T_1$ = initial temperature of water = 293.0 K

$T_2$ = final temperature of water = 371.2 K

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q=250g\times 4.18J/g.K\times (371.2-293.0)K$

$q=81719J$

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy of combustion of octane.

$\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}$

where,

$\Delta H$ = enthalpy of combustion of octane = ?

q = heat released = -81719 J

n = moles of octane = 0.015 moles

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$\Delta H=\frac{-81719J}{0.015mole}$

$\Delta H=-5447933.333J/mol=-5447.9kJ/mol\approx -5448kJ/mol$

Therefore, the enthalpy of combustion of octane is -5448 kJ/mol.
