It moves backwards do to the impact. this is because force can not be created nor destroyed so it is transferred.<span />

What are found in nucleus and atoms?

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The nucleus of an atom contains the majority of the atom’s mass, and is composed of protons and neutrons, which are collectively referred to as nucleons. The much-lighter electrons orbit their atom’s nucleus. The Protons. Protons are positively charged particles found in an atom’s nucleus.

Wavelengths of incoming solar radiation are __________________ the wavelengths of reradiated heat. question 2 options: faster th

MArishka [77]

I think that the wavelengths of an incoming solar radiation are shorter than the wavelengths of reradiated heat. This is because the incoming solar radiation to the surface of the earth is in the utraviolet (short) to near infrared (long) wavelength bands. After absorption has taken place, surfaces reradiate heat energy back to the atmosphere at long wavelength infrared.

How much heat is required to convert 2.55g of water at 28 degrees c to steam?

pantera1 [17]

There are two different processes here:
1) we must add heat in order to bring the temperature of the water from $28^{\circ}C$ to $100^{\circ}C$ (the temperature at which the water evaporates)
2) other heat must be added to make the water evaporates

1) The heat needed for process 1) is
$Q_1=m C_s \Delta T$
where
$m=2.55 g$ is the water mass
$C_s = 4.18 g/J^{\circ}C$ is the water specific heat
$\Delta T=100^{\circ}C-28^{\circ}C=72^{\circ}C$ is the variation of temperature of the water
If we plug the numbers into the equation, we find
$Q_1 = (2.55 g)(4.18 J/g^{\circ}C)(72^{\circ}C)=767.4 J$

2) The heat needed for process 2) is
$Q=m L_e$
where
$m=2.55 g$ is the water mass
$L_e = 2264.7 J/g$ is the latent heat of evaporation of water
If we plug the numbers into the equation, we find
$Q_2=(2.55 g)(2264.7 J/g)=5775.0 J$

So, the total heat needed for the whole process is
$Q=Q_1+Q_2=767.4 J+5775.0 J=6542.4 J$
