Answer:

1000N is needed to be applied.

Explanation:

Machines make doing work easier. They allow us use small effort to carry out work on huge amount of load.

The mechanical advantage of a machine;

(M.A) =load/effort

M.A = 0.6

Load =600N

effort =?

0.6 = 600/effort

effort = 600/0.6

effort = 1000N

When using 100ml or 50ml graduated cylinder to what decimal place can your volume be estimated?<br>

Olegator [25]

Answer:

I know that the 100-mL graduated cylinders are always read to 1 decimal place.

I think for 50 mL graduated cylinders, it lets you measure volumes up to 50.0 mL to the nearest 0.1 or 0.2 mL, depending on your exact cylinder.

Consider an insulated container in which water (2.58 g) solidifies at 0 oC and 1 atm on the surface of a 55 g aluminum block. As

yarga [219]

Answer:

17.41°C is the change in temperature of the aluminum block.

Explanation:

Latent heat of fusion water = 334 J/g

Heat required to freeze 1 gram of water = -334 J

Heat required to freeze 2.58 grams of water = Q

$Q=2.58 g\times (-334 J/g)=-861.72 J$

Heat lost by water will be equal to heat gained by the aluminum block

$Q'=-Q$

$Q'= -(-861.72 J)=861.72 J$

Formula used to calculate heat absorbed by substance:

$Q=mc\Delta T$

Where:

Q = heat absorbed by substance

c = specific heat of substance

m = Mass of the substance

ΔT = change in temperature of the substance

We have :

Mass of aluminum block= m= 55 g

Heat capacity of aluminum = c = 0.9 J/g°C

Change in temperature of the aluminum block= ΔT = ?

Heat absorbed by the aluminum = Q'

$861.72 J=55 g\times 0.9 J/g^oC\times \Delta T$

$\Delta T=17.41 ^oC$

17.41°C is the change in temperature of the aluminum block.
