Answer:
Specific heat capacity, c = 468.75 J/Kg°C
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Power = 1.5 kW to Watts = 1.5 * 1000 = 1500 Watts
Time = 5 seconds
Mass = 0.2 kg
Initial temperature = 20°C
Final temperature = 100°C
To find specific heat capacity;
First of all, we would have to determine the energy consumption of the kettle;
Energy = power * time
Energy = 1500 * 5
Energy = 7500 Joules
Next, we would calculate the specific heat capacity of water.
Heat capacity is given by the formula;
Where;
- Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
- m represents the mass of an object.
- c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
- dt represents the change in temperature.
dt = T2 - T1
dt = 100 - 20
dt = 80°C
Making c the subject of formula, we have;
Substituting into the equation, we have;
<em>Specific heat capacity, c = 468.75 J/Kg°C</em>
Answer: Because of the its assumption of earth being at the centre of the universe and also, its parallax argument.
Explanation: Geocentric model is the
theory of the structure of the solar system (or the universe) in which Earth is assumed to be at the centre of it all. It was generally accepted until the 16th century, after which it was superseded by heliocentric models
Among many, geocentric model was considered because of its stellar parallax argument.
What is parallax? Parallax is the apparent change in position of objects due to a change in observation location
The ancient Greeks claimed that if the Earth is moving around the Sun then the stars should shift their positions due to this orbital motion (called stellar parallax). The stars don't shift. They don't shift enough for you to notice, but they do indeed shift. This is essentially the same reason the moon appears to follow you around when you drive - it's too far away for any apparent shift due to your motion.
The Splitting of a nucleus
The correct answer to the question is - Deposition i.e the process by which a gas changes to a solid is called deposition.
EXPLANATION:
There are various thermal processes of state or phase change in which matter in one state is converted into matter in another state.
Deposition is the type of thermodynamic process of state or phase change in which a gaseous substance is directly converted into corresponding solid substance without entering into liquid phase.
During this process, the loss of thermal energy from gas is very fast. Hence, the gas directly enters solid phase without undergoing into liquid phase.
This process is just the opposite process of sublimation where a solid is converted into gas directly. That's why this process is also known as desublimation.
For instance, conversion of water vapor into ice.
