An immersion heater of power J= 500 W is used to heat water in a bowl. After 2 minutes, the temperature increases from T1= 85°C

to T2 = 90°C. The heater is then switched off for an additional minute, and the temperature drops by Estimate the mass of the water in the bowl. The thermal capacity of water c = 4.2 x 103 J K-1 Kg-1

Answer: 0.051kg

Explanation:

Using the law of calorimetry which states that the amount of heat lost by a hot substance is equal to the amount of heat gained by the cold substance.

Applying the law to this question,

Amount of heat lost by the heater = heat gained by the water

Heat lost by Immersion heater Q1 = Power×time

Given power = 500W time = 2minutes = 120seconds

Heat loss by immersion heater = 500×120 = 60,000Joules

Heat gained by water = mc∆t where;

m is the mass of the water in the bowl = ?

c is the specific heat capacity = 4.2x10³JK-1 Kg-1

∆t = change in temperature = 90°C -85°C = 5°C

= 273+5 = 278K

Substituting in the formula we have;

Q2= 4.2×10³×278×m = 1,167,600m

According to the law if calorimetry,

Q2=Q1

1,167,600m = 60000

m = 60000/1,167,600

m = 0.051kg

Therefore the mass of water in the bowl is 0.051kg

How does the law of conservation apply to Earth's Energy Budget?
Molodets [167]

Answer:

The balance between incoming energy from the sun and outgoing energy from Earth ultimately drives our climate. This energy balance is governed by the first law of thermodynamics, also known as the law of conservation of energy.

An electric dipole is formed from ±1.00nC charges spaced 3.00 mm apart. The dipole is at the origin, oriented along the x-axis.
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Value of electric field along the axis and equitorial axis  E=31.25\ N/c and E = 15.625\ N/c respectively.

Explanation:

Given :

Distance between charges , d = 3 \ mm =\dfrac{3}{1000}\ m=3\times 10^{-3}\ m.

Magnitude of charges , q=1\ nC = 10^{-9}\ C.

Dipole moment , p=qL=10^{-9}\times 3\times 10^{-3}=3\times 10^{-12} \ C\ m.

Case A) (x,y) = (12.0 cm, 0 cm) :

Electric field of dipole in its axis ,

E=\dfrac{2kp}{r^3}

Putting all values and r=12\times 10^{-2}\ m.

We get , E=31.25\ N/c.

Case B) (x,y) = (0 cm, 12.0 cm) :

Electric field of dipole on equitorial axis ,

E = \dfrac{kp}{r^3}

Putting all values and r=12\times 10^{-2}\ m.

We get , E = 15.625\ N/c.

Hence , this is the required solution.

if two point charges are separated by 1.5 cm and have charge values of 2.0 and -4.0, respectively, what is the value of the mutu
RUDIKE [14]

Complete question:

if two point charges are separated by 1.5 cm and have charge values of +2.0 and -4.0 μC, respectively, what is the value of the mutual force between them.

Answer:

The mutual force between the two point charges is 319.64 N

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the two point charges, r = 1.5 cm = 1.5 x 10⁻² m

value of the charges, q₁ and q₂ = 2 μC and - μ4 C

Apply Coulomb's law;

F = \frac{k|q_1||q_2|}{r^2}

where;

F is the force of attraction between the two charges

|q₁| and |q₂| are the magnitude of the two charges

r is the distance between the two charges

k is Coulomb's constant = 8.99 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

F = \frac{k|q_1||q_2|}{r^2} \\\\F = \frac{8.99*10^9 *4*10^{-6}*2*10^{-6}}{(1.5*10^{-2})^2} \\\\F = 319.64 \ N

Therefore, the mutual force between the two point charges is 319.64 N

Identify two fields where physical quantities are used in motion calculations​
larisa86 [58]

The two fields were physical quantities are used in motion calculations are length and mass with time.

The physical quantity in a field is referred as every point in a particular space time.

<h3>How physical quantities are used in motion calculations?</h3>

 If we consider an object, the physical property of the object is considered as physical quantity and to measure that object is known as units. The Physical quantity can be classified as elemental physical quantity and derived physical quantity. Length, mass, time, etc.. are elemental physical quantity, momentum, density, acceleration, etc... are derived physical quantity. Only for charge and temperature the physical quantity will be less than zero.

Length, mass and time  are the physical quantities used in motion calculations.
