You wish to boil 1.9 kg of water, which has a specific heat capacity of 4186 J/kg-K. The water is initially at room temperature

(293 K). Water boils at 373 K.
1) How much energy must be added to the water by heating it in order for it to start boiling?

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

Compare the force of air resistance and the force of gravity on an object falling at its terminal velocity.
Sholpan [36]
The viscous force on an object moving through air is proportional to its velocity.
The only forces acting on an object when falling are air resistance and its weight itself. The weight acts vertically downwards whereas air resistance acts vertically upward.
Let F be the viscous force due to air molecules, B be buoyant force due to air and W be the weight of falling object. Initially, the velocity of falling object and hence the viscous force F is zero and the object is accelerated due to force
(W-B). Because of the acceleration the velocity increases and accordingly the viscous force also increases. At a certain instant, the viscous force becomes equal to W-B. The net force then becomes zero and the object falls with constant velocity. This constant velocity is called terminal velocity.
Thus at terminal velocity, air resistance and force of gravity becomes equal.

A student is preparing to bake a cake at home and places several ingredients on the countertop to use. First he preheats the ove
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

baking the cake batter

Explanation:

Baking the cake batter will indicate that chemical change has occurred here. What is a chemical change?

  • A chemical change is one in which a new kind of matter is formed.
  • It is usually accompanied by energy either evolution or absorption of energy in form of heat or light or both.
  • The process is irreversible.
  • When the batter bakes, a new substance different from the cake mix is obtainable.
  • We cannot get back the ingredient from this baked cake. It is impossible.
  • This is good indicator of chemical change.

A student uses a spring loaded launcher to launch a marble vertically in the air. The mass of the marble is
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Part a)

When spring compressed by 2 cm

H = 1.47 m

Part b)

When spring is compressed by 4 cm

H = 5.94 m

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the spring is compressed and released

so here spring potential energy is converted into gravitational potential energy at its maximum height

So we will have

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = mg(H + x)

0.5(220)(0.02)^2 = 0.003(9.81)(H + 0.02)

so we have

H = 1.47 m

Part b)

Similarly when spring is compressed by 4 cm

then we have

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = mg(H + x)

0.5(220)(0.04)^2 = 0.003(9.81)(H + 0.04)

so we have

H = 5.94 m

A parallel-plate capacitor consists of plates of area 1.5 x 10^-4 m^2 separated by 2.0 mm The capacitor is connected to a 12-V b
Katen [24]

Answer:

4.78 x 10^-11 J

Explanation:

A = 1.5 x 10^-4 m^2

d = 2 mm = 2 x 10^-3 m

V = 12 V

Let C be the capacitance of the capacitor

C = ε0 A / d

C = (8.854 x 10^-12 x 1.5 x 10^-4) / (2 x 10^-3)

C = 6.64 x 10^-13 F

Energy stored, U = 1/2 CV^2

U = 0.5 x 6.64 x 10^-13 x 12 x 12

U = 4.78 x 10^-11 J
