Answer: 1896.55J/kg°C

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) required to heat a material depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since,

Q = 1320 joules

Mass of material = 5.61kg

C = ? (let unknown value be Z)

Φ = 0.124°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

1320J = 5.61kg x Z x 0.124°C

1320J = 0.696kg°C x Z

Z = (1320J / 0.696kg°C)

Z = 1896.55 J/kg°C

Thus, the specific heat of the material is 1896.55J/kg°C

Answer:

1897.53J/Kg°C

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

M (mass of material) = 5.61 kg

ΔT ( change in temperature) = 0.124°C

Q ( heat) = 1320 J

C (specific heat capacity of the material) =?

Using the formula Q = MCΔT, the specific heat capacity of the material can be obtained as follow:

Q = MCΔT

C = Q / MΔT

C = 1320J/ (5.61 kg x 0.124°C)

C = 1897.53J/Kg°C

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of the material is 1897.53J/Kg°C

Two forces of magnitudes 4.0 Newtons and 3.0 Newtons pull on a box. The forces make an angle of 40° with each other. What is the

leonid [27]

Answer:

6.6 N

Explanation:

Let's take the direction of the force of 4.0 N as positive x-direction. This means that the force of 3.0 N is at 40 degrees above it. So the components of the two forces along the x- and y-directions are:

$F_{1x} = 4.0 N\\F_{1y} = 0$

$F_{2x} = 3.0 N cos 40^{\circ}=2.3 N\\F_{2y} = 3.0 N sin 40^{\circ} = 1.9 N$

So the resultant has components

$F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=4.0 N +2.3 N = 6.3 N\\F_y = F_{1y} + F_{2y} = 0 + 1.9 N = 1.9 N$

So the magnitude of the resultant is

$F=\sqrt{F_x^2 +F_y^2}=\sqrt{(6.3)^2+(1.9)^2}=6.6 N$

And in order for the body to be balanced, the third force must be equal and opposite (in direction) to this force: so, the magnitude of the third force must be 6.6 N.

Which statement about thin lenses is correct? In each case, we are considering only a single lens. A. A diverging lens always pr

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

E) true. The image is always virtual and erect

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked to find the correct statements,

for this we can use the constructor equation

1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length, p the distance to the object and q the distance to the image

In diverging lenses, the focal length is negative and the image is virtual and erect

In convergent lenses, the positive focal length, if the object is farther than the focal length, the image is real and inverted, and if the object is at a shorter distance than the focal length, the image is virtual and straight.

With this analysis let's review each statement

A) False. The image is right

B) False. The type of image depends on where the object is with respect to the focal length

C) False. The real image is always inverted

D) False. The image is always virtual

E) true. The image is always virtual and erect

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

A plate of uniform areal density $\rho = 2 \ kg/m^2$ is bounded by the four curves:

$y = -x^2+4x-5m$

$y = x^2+4x+6m$

$x=1 \ m$

$x=2 \ m$

where x and y are in meters. Point $P$ has coordinates $P_x=1 \ m$ and $P_y=-2 \ m$ . What is the moment of inertia $I_P$ of the plate about the point $P$ ?
