Answer:

  3.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The straight line distance from the school to the mall is found using the Pythagorean theorem. That distance is the hypotenuse of a triangle that is 27 blocks in the east-west direction and 22 blocks in the north-south direction.

  d = √(27^2 +22^2) = √1213 ≈ 34.83 . . . blocks

Since each block is 0.1 miles, the distance in miles is ...

  distance to mall = (0.1 miles/block)(34.83 blocks) = 3.483 miles

Rounded to tenths, the distance from school to mall is 3.5 miles.

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The change in temperature per minute for the sample, dT/dt is 71.\overline {6} °C/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters of the question are;

The specific heat capacity for glass, dQ/dT = 0.18 (kcal/°C)

The heat transfer rate for 1 kg of glass at 20.0 °C, dQ/dt = 12.9 kcal/min

Given that both dQ/dT and dQ/dt are known, we have;

\dfrac{dQ}{dT} = 0.18 \, (kcal/ ^{\circ} C)

\dfrac{dQ}{dt} = 12.9 \, (kcal/ min)

Therefore, we get;

\dfrac{\dfrac{dQ}{dt} }{\dfrac{dQ}{dT} } = {\dfrac{dQ}{dt} } \times \dfrac{dT}{dQ} = \dfrac{dT}{dt}

\dfrac{dT}{dt} = \dfrac{\dfrac{dQ}{dt} }{\dfrac{dQ}{dT} } = \dfrac{12.9 \, kcal / min }{0.18 \, kcal/ ^{\circ} C }   = 71.\overline 6 \, ^{\circ } C/min

For the sample, we have the change in temperature per minute, dT/dt, presented as follows;

\dfrac{dT}{dt}  = 71.\overline 6 \, ^{\circ } C/min
