Answer:

The final temperature of both objects is 400 K

Explanation:

The quantity of heat transferred per unit mass is given by;

Q = cΔT

where;

c is the specific heat capacity

ΔT is the change in temperature

The heat transferred by the  object A per unit mass is given by;

Q(A) = caΔT

where;

ca is the specific heat capacity of object A

The heat transferred by the  object B per unit mass is given by;

Q(B) = cbΔT

where;

cb is the specific heat capacity of object B

The heat lost by object B is equal to heat gained by object A

Q(A) = -Q(B)

But heat capacity of object B is twice that of object A

The final temperature of the two objects is given by

T_2 = \frac{C_aT_a + C_bT_b}{C_a + C_b}

But heat capacity of object B is twice that of object A

T_2 = \frac{C_aT_a + C_bT_b}{C_a + C_b} \\\\T_2 = \frac{C_aT_a + 2C_aT_b}{C_a + 2C_a}\\\\T_2 = \frac{c_a(T_a + 2T_b)}{3C_a} \\\\T_2 = \frac{T_a + 2T_b}{3}\\\\T_2 = \frac{300 + (2*450)}{3}\\\\T_2 = 400 \ K

Therefore, the final temperature of both objects is 400 K.

Which feature of the sun appears in cycles of about 11 years?
goldfiish [28.3K]
The Sun's magnetic field goes through a cycle, called the solar cycle. Every 11 years or so, the Sun's magnetic field completely flips. This means that the Sun's north and south poles switch places. Then it takes about another 11 years for the Sun's north and south poles to flip back again.
