A platinum ball weighing 100 g is removed from a furnace and dropped into 400 g of water at 0 degree C. If the equilibrium tempe

rature is 10 degrees C, and the specific heat of platinum is 0.04 cal/g degree C, what must have been the temperature of the furnace? Neglect the effect of the mass of the calorimeter.

Answer:

T = 1010 degree Celsius

Explanation:

mass of ball (Mb) = 100 g

mass of water (Mw) = 400 g

temp of water = 0 degree

specific heat of platinum (C) = 0.04 cal/g degree celsius

we can calculate the temperature of the furnace from the equation before

Mb x C x (temp of furnace (T) - equilibrium temp) = Mw x (equilibrium temp - temp of furnace)

100 x 0.04 x ( T - 10) = 400 x (10 - 0)

4 (T - 10) = 4000

T - 10 = 1000

T = 1010 degree Celsius

A brick is resting on a smooth wooden board that is at a 30° angle. What is one way to overcome the static friction that is hold
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

We apply force to move the brick.

Explanation:

Let me first of define a force .

A force is something applied to an object or thing to change it's internal or external state.

Now if a brick is resting on smooth wood inclined at 30° to the horizontal for us to overcome the friction which is also a force we have to apply a force greater than the gravity force acting on the body and then depending on the direction of the applied force the angle to apply it also.

You measure a 15.0-V potential difference across a resistor that has 0.30 A of current flowing through it. What is the value of
Mariana [72]
V=IR however in this case we will rearrange it into R= V/I. Which leads to R=15.0/0.30. And your answer becomes 50.

Wave travelling along right with speed of 0. 5 m/s time 4 second point p
Soloha48 [4]

The wavelength of the wave which is travelling along right with speed of 0. 5 m/s time 4 second point is 2.

<h3>What is the speed of wave?</h3>

Speed of wave is the rate by which the wave travels. It can be described as the distance cover by the crest or thrust of it per unit of time. It can be calculated with the following formula,

v=f\times\lambda

Here, (f) is the frequency and (λ) is the wavelength.

The frequency is inverse of time. Thus, the value of frequency in time t is,

f=\dfrac{1}{t}\\f=\dfrac{1}{4}\\f=0.25

The speed of the wave is 0.5 m/s. Put the values in the formula,

v=f\times\lambda\\0.5=0.25\times\lambda\\\lambda=\dfrac{0.5}{0.25}\\\lambda=2

Thus, the wavelength of the wave which is travelling along right with speed of 0. 5 m/s time 4 second point is 2.

A boy and a girl are balanced on a massless seesaw. The boy has a mass of 60 kg and the girl's mass is 50 kg. If the boy sits 1.
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer: 1.8m

Explanation:

Using the principle of moment to solve the question which states that the sum of clockwise moment is equal to the sum of anticlockwise moments.

The boy moves in the clockwise direction towards the pivot while the girl moves in the anticlockwise direction towards the pivot.

Since moment = force × perpendicular distance

CW moments = 60×1.5 = 90Nm

ACW moments = 50×x = 50x

Equating both moments to get 'x'

90 = 50x

x =9/5

x = 1.8m

This shows that the girl must sit 1.8m from the other side for equilibrium.:
