Water has a very high specific heat capacity when compared to most other common materials. In fact, ethyl alcohol has a specific

heat that is only about that of water, whereas the specific heat of lead is about that of water. Suppose that you have equal‑mass samples of each material and that each sample is at the same initial temperature. You then carefully transfer the same amount of heat into each sample and measure the resulting final temperature of each. Rank the final temperature of each sample from highest to lowest.

Answer:

Lead, Ethyl alcohol and water.

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of a substance can be define as the quantity of heat that is absorbed by a substance needed to change the temperature of a unit mass of one kilogram of the substance by one kelvin

In a particular beam of radiation, which is traveling in a vacuum, the amounts of energy per second at an ultraviolet wavelength
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: d)

Explanation: In order to justify the answer we have to consider that the energy of photons directely depent on the frequency so the energy is inverselly dependent of the wavelegth.

If both beams have the same power, this means Energy/time so the number of photons per second must be different. As consequence a) is wrong as  b) since it is not posible since UV photon  have more energy that IR photons. c) It is no necessary know the frequency since the wavelength is related in the form:

c=λν  c is the speed of light, λ the wavelegth and ν the frequency.

d) Certainly will be more more IR photons than UV photons to get the same beam power.

Substance A has a heat capacity that is much greater than that of substance B. If 10.0 g of substance A initially at 30.0 ∘C is
astra-53 [7]

Explanation:

In a heat exchange, the temperature change is inversely proportional to the specific heat capacity. Since substance A has a heat capacity that is much greater than that of substance B, the temperature change of substance A will be less than the temperature change of substance B. Therefore, the final temperature is closer to that of 30^\circ C than 80^\circ C.

Answer:

n_cladding = 1.4764

Explanation:

We are told that θ_max = 5 °

Thus;

θ_max + θ_c = 90°

θ_c = 90° - θ_max

θ_c = 90° - 5°

θ_c = 85°

Now, critical angle is given by;

θ_c = sin^(-1) (n_cladding/n_core)

sin θ_c = (n_cladding/n_core)

n_cladding = (n_core) × sin θ_c

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

n_cladding = 1.482 × sin 85

n_cladding = 1.4764

Two sinusoidal waves are moving through a medium in the positive x-direction, both having amplitudes of 7.00 cm, a wave number o
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

0.99 m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Amplitude, A = 7.00cm

Wave number, k = 3.00m^-1

Angular Frequency, ω = 2.50Hz

Period = 6.00 s

Phase, ϕ = π/12 rad

Note: All parameters are the same for both waves except the phase.

Wave 1 has a wave function:

y1(x, t) = Asin(kx - ωt)

y1(x, t) = 7sin(3x - 2.5t)

Wave 2 has a wave function:

y2(x, t) = Asin(kx - ωt + ϕ)

y2(x, t) = 7sin(3x - 2.5t + π/12)

π is in radians.

When Superposition occurs, the new wave is represented by:

y(x, t) = 7sin(3x - 2.5t) + 7sin(3x - 2.5t + π/12)

y(x, t) = 7[sin(3x - 2.5t) + sin(3x - 2.5t + π/12)]

Using trigonometric function:

sin(a) + sin(b) = 2cos[(a - b)/2]sin[(a + b)/2]

Where a = 3x - 2.5t, b = 3x - 2.5t + π/12

We have that:

y(x, t) = (2*7)[cos(π/24)sin(3x - 2.5t + π/24)]

Therefore, when x = 0.53cm and t = 2s,

y(x, t) = (2*7)[cos(π/24)sin{(3*0.53) - (2.5*2)+ π/24}]

y(x, t) = 14 * 0.9914 * 0.0713

y(x, t) = 0.99 m

The height of the resultant wave is 0.99cm
