A calorimeter is used to determine the specific heat capacity of a test metal. If the specific heat capacity of water is known,

denis23 [38]

Answer:

initial and final temperatures of both the water and metal, mass of the metal, and mass of the water

Explanation:

Heat lost by the metal, $Q = mc(t_{2} - t_{1})$

Heat gained by the water in the calorimeter, $Q_{w} = m_{w}c_{w}(t_{2w} - t_{1w})$

For energy to be conserved in the system, the heat lost by the metal will equal the heat gain by the water in the calorimeter.

$mc(t_{2} - t_{1}) = m_{w}c_{w}(t_{2w} - t_{1w})$

Where,

m is the mass of the metal

c is specific heat capacity of the metal

t₂ is the final temperature of the metal

t₁ is the initial temperature of the metal

$m_{w}$ is the mass of the water

$c_{w}$ is specific heat capacity of water

$t_{2w}$ is the final temperature of water

$t_{1w}$ is the initial temperature of water

From the question given, specific heat capacity of the water is known, the quantities to be measured are;

Initial and final temperatures of both the water and metal,

Mass of the metal, and mass of the water

– A man walks 50 meters due west, then 50 meters 60 north of west. Determine the magnitude and direction of the resultant disp

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

86.6, 45°

Explanation:

The diagram explains better.

Using vector component method:

We find the x and y components of the vectors :

For the first:

A = -50cos(0)i + 50sin(0)j

A = -50i

For the second:

B = -50cos(60)i + 50sin(60)j

B = -25i + 43.3j

The resultant vector is :

R = A + B

R = -50i - 25i + 43.3j

R = -75i + 43.3j

The magnitude is:

R = [(-75)² + (43.3)²]^½

R = 86.6m

The angle is

tanθ = (50/50) = 1

θ = 45°

Which of the foolwing best define net force?

DochEvi [55]

Net force can be defined as the sum of force acting on an object in all the directions

.i.e Net force= F acting on a body at upward direction+ F at downward direction+ F at leftward direction+ F at rightward direction.

e.g if a body is at rest the sum of forces acting on body in all direction is zero

but if a body is moving its mean body is facing an unbalanced net force.

A nonconducting sphere of radius 10 cm is charged uniformly with a density of 100 nC/m3. What is the magnitude of the potential

Flura [38]

Answer:

The answer is 3.0 V

Explanation:

the formula of the potential due to a non-conductive sphere with a uniform charge at a point at a distance x from the center of the sphere is equal to:

V1 = (2*π*k*ρ*(3*r^2 - x^2))/3

where

ρ = volume charge density = 100 nC/m^3

x = distance from center = 0

r = radius = 10 cm = 0.1 m

Thus:

V1 = (2*π*k*ρ*3*r^2)/3

for x = 4 cm = 0.04 m, we have:

V4 = (2*π*k*ρ*(3*r^2 - (0.04^2))/3 = (2*π*k*ρ*(3*r^2 - 0.0016))/3

The difference between both equations:

V1 - V4 = (2*π*k*ρ*3*r^2)/3 - (2*π*k*ρ*(3*r^2 - 0.0016))/3

V1 - V4 = (2*π*k*ρ*0.0016)/3 = (2*π*9x10^9*100x10^-9*0.0016)/3 = 3.02 V = 3 V
