Two substances, A and B, initially at different temperatures, come into contact and reach thermal equilibrium. The mass of subst

ance A is 6.01 g and its initial temperature is 20.0 degrees Celsius. The mass of substance B is 25.6 g and its initial temperature is 52.2 degrees Celsius. The final temperature of both substances at thermal equilibrium is 46.1 degrees Celsius. If the specific heat capacity of substance B is 1.17 J/g degrees Celsius, what is the specific heat capacity of substance A

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of substance A is 1.16 J/g

Explanation:

The substances A and B come to a thermal equilibrium, therefore, the heat given by the hotter substance B is absorbed by the colder substance A.

The equation becomes:

Heat release by Substance B = Heat Gained by Substance A

The heat can be calculated by the formula:

Heat = mCΔT

where,

m = mass of substance

C = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = difference in temperature of substance

Therefore, the equation becomes:

(mCΔT) of A = (mCΔT) of B

<u>FOR SUBSTANCE A:</u>

m = 6.01 g

ΔT = Final Temperature - Initial Temperature

ΔT = 46.1°C - 20°C = 26.1°C

C = ?

<u>FOR SUBSTANCE B:</u>

m = 25.6 g

ΔT = Initial Temperature - Final Temperature

ΔT = 52.2°C - 46.1°C = 6.1°C

C = 1.17 J/g

Therefore, eqn becomes:

(6.01 g)(C)(26.1°C) = (25.6 g)(1.17 J/g)(6.1°C)

C = (182.7072 J °C)/(156.861 g °C)

<u>C = 1.16 J/g</u>

Calculate the electroosmotic velocity of an aqueous solution through a glass capillary 5 cm long with a 0.5 mm internal diameter
natita [175]

Answer:

Electroosmotic velocity will be equal to 1.6\times 10^{-4}m/sec

Explanation:

We have given applied voltage v = 100 volt

Length of capillary L = 5 mm = 0.005 m

Zeta potential of the capillary surface \xi =80mV=0.08volt

Dielectric constant of glass is between 5 to 10 here we are taking dielectric constant as \epsilon =10

Viscosity of glass is \eta =10^8

Electroosmotic velocity is given as v_{eo}=\frac{\epsilon \xi }{\eta }\times \frac{v}{L}

v_{eo}=\frac{10\times 0.08 }{10^8 }\times \frac{100}{0.005}=1.6\times 10^{-4}m/sec

So Electroosmotic velocity will be equal to 1.6\times 10^{-4}m/sec

Answer:

The correct option is;

c. Leaving the chuck key in the drill chuck

Explanation:

A Common safety issues with a drill press leaving the chuck key in the drill chuck

It is required that, before turning the drill press power on, ensure that chuck key is removed from the chuck. A self ejecting chuck key reduces the likelihood of the chuck key being accidentally left in the chuck.

It is also required to ensure that the switch is in the OFF position before turning plugging in the power cable

Be sure that the chuck key is removed from the chuck before turning on the power. Using a self-ejecting chuck key is a good way of insuring that the key is not left in the chuck accidentally. Also to avoid accidental starting, make sure the switch is in the OFF position before plugging in the cord. Always disconnect the drill from the power source when making repairs.

What is clearance? What is backlash? What is interference? Explain briefly.
Anton [14]

Explanation:

Clearance:

For easy matching  and dis matching  of  hole and  shaft we use size of hole little bit more than the size of shaft and this difference in size is called clearance.

Backlash:

  It is the clearance between the two mating gear to avoids failure of gears.Actually when temperature of gears increases then at the same time the size of gear also increases ,due this there is a possibility foe jamming of gears so to avoids this backlash is provides.

Interference:

  When two gears are matting then addendum of one gear inters into the deddendum of another gear and due to this gears get jam .This phenomenon is called interference.
