A 400 gram sample of alcohol at 10o C [Ca=2.64 J/goC] is mixed with 400 grams of warm water [Cw=4.186 J/gCo] at 88o C. Assume

no heat is lost to the surroundings, what is the final temperature of the mixture when thermal equilibrium is reached?
Alcohol = -[Warm Water]
mCaΔT = -[mCwΔT]
can u help pls?

The heat lost by the water will be equivalent to the energy gained by the alcohol. Thus:
maCaΔT = -mwCwΔT
400 x 2.64 x (T - 10) = 400 x 4.186 x (88 - T)
T = 57.8 °C

Answer:

V=15.3 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we have to use the energy conservation theorem:

$U_e+K_i+U_{gi}+W_{friction}=K_f+U_{gf}$

the elastic potencial energy is given by:

$U_e=\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2\\U_e=\frac{1}{2}*1100N/m*(4m)^2\\U_e=8800J$

The work is defined as:

$W_{friction}=F_f*d*cos(\theta)\\W_{friction}=40N*2.5m*cos(180)\\W_{friction}=-100J$

this work is negative because is opposite to the movement.

The gravitational potencial energy at 2.5 m aboves is given by:

$U_{gf}=m*g*h\\U_{gf}=60kg*9.8*2.5\\U_{gf}=1470J$

the gravitational potential energy at the ground and the kinetic energy at the begining are 0.

$8800J+0+0+-100J=\frac{1}{2}*62kg*v^2+1470J\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(8800J-100J-1470J)}{62kg}}\\v=15.3m/s$

Problem set 3 » (8) river swimming a swimmer heads directly across a river, swimming at her maximum speed of 1.30 m/s relative t

jasenka [17]

Velocity of swimmer across river = 1.30 m/s

Distance arrived downstream = 48 m

Width of river = 64 m

Time taken to cross river = $\frac{Width of river}{Velocity across river}$

= $\frac{64}{1.30} =49.23 s$

Speed of river current = $\frac{Distance arrived downstream}{Time taken to cross river}$

= $\frac{48}{49.23} = 0.975 m/s$

So, the river is flowing at a speed 0.975 m/s.

2 kg and 3 kg objects slide together, and then they break apart. If the final velocity of 2 kg is 10 m/s,

lara [203]

Answer:

P = (2 + 3) * V where V is their initial speed (total momentum)

P = 2 * 10 + 3 * Vx where Vx here would be V3

If the initial momentum is not known how can one determine the final velocity of the 3 kg obj.

Also work depends on the sum of the velocities

W (initial) = 1/2 (2 + 3) V^2 the initial kinetic energy

W (final) = 1/2 * 2 * V2^2 + 1/2 * 3 * V3^2

It appears that more information is required for this problem

A cart of mass 6.0 kg moves with a speed of 3.0 m/s towards a second stationary cart with a mass of 3.0 kg. The carts move on a

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:1.5

Explanation:

Given

mass of first cart $m_1=6 kg$

initial Velocity $u_1=3 m/s$

mass of second cart $m_2=3 kg$

$u_2=0 m/s$

In the absence of External Force we can conserve momentum

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)v$

$v=\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}$

$v=\frac{6\times 3+3\times 0}{6+3}$

$v=2 m/s$

Final kinetic Energy of two masses

$K.E._2=\frac{1}{2}(m_1+m_2)v^2$

$K.E._2=\frac{1}{2}\cdot (3+6)\cdot (2)^2$

$K.E._2=18 J$

Initial Kinetic Energy

$K.E._1=\frac{1}{2}m_1u_1^2+\frac{1}{2}m_2u_2^2$

$K.E._1=\frac{1}{2}6\times 3^2+0$

$K.E._1=27 J$

$ratio =\frac{K.E._1}{K.E._2}=\frac{27}{18}=1.5$
