Answer:

6.36 105 J

Explanation:

In calorimetry all the energy given to a system is converted to heat and the equation for heat is

     Q = m  c_{e} ΔT

The temperature can be in degrees Celsius or Kelvin since the interval between them is the same, substitute and calculate

Q = 1.9 4186 (373-293)  

Q = 6.36 105 J  

This heat equals the energy supplied

A ball traveling with an initial momentum of 5.1 kgm/s bounces off a wall and comes back in the opposite direction with a moment
Elina [12.6K]

Answer: Change in momentum=9.4kgm/s

Impulse=9.4kgm/s

Explanation:

Change in momentum=5.1-(-4.3)=5.1+4.3=9.4kgm/s

Impulse=Change in momentum

There impulse=9.4kgm/s

The concentration of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) in a river just downstream of a wastewater treatment plant’s effluent pipe
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The BOD concentration 50 km downstream when the velocity of the river is 15 km/day is 63.5 mg/L

Explanation:

Let the initial concentration of the BOD = C₀

Concentration of BOD at any time or point = C

dC/dt = - KC

∫ dC/C = -k ∫ dt

Integrating the left hand side from C₀ to C and the right hand side from 0 to t

In (C/C₀) = -kt + b (b = constant of integration)

At t = 0, C = C₀

In 1 = 0 + b

b = 0

In (C/C₀) = - kt

(C/C₀) = e⁻ᵏᵗ

C = C₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

C₀ = 75 mg/L

k = 0.05 /day

C = 75 e⁻⁰•⁰⁵ᵗ

So, we need the BOD concentration 50 km downstream when the velocity of the river is 15 km/day

We calculate how many days it takes the river to reach 50 km downstream

Velocity = (displacement/time)

15 = 50/t

t = 50/15 = 3.3333 days

So, we need the C that corresponds to t = 3.3333 days

C = 75 e⁻⁰•⁰⁵ᵗ

0.05 t = 0.05 × 3.333 = 0.167

C = 75 e⁻⁰•¹⁶⁷

C = 63.5 mg/L

A 0.22-caliber handgun fires a 28-g bullet at a velocity of 765 m/s. Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of the bullet.
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

de Broglie wavelength of the bullet is 3.093 x 10⁻³⁵ m

Explanation:

Given;

mass of bullet, m = 28 g = 0.028 kg

velocity of the bullet, v = 765 m/s

de Broglie wavelength of the bullet is given by;

λ = h / mv

where;

λ is de Broglie wavelength of the bullet

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J/s

λ = h / mv

λ = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ ) / (0.028 x 765)

λ = 3.093 x 10⁻³⁵ m

Therefore, de Broglie wavelength of the bullet is 3.093 x 10⁻³⁵ m
