We often use a spoon to cool coffee by stirring. Some of the heat is conducted from the coffee to the air by this method, but th
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

heat lost by coffee = heat gain by aluminum spoon

heat lost by coffee = mc ( 85° C - T)

175 ml of water = 175 grams

175 grams = (175 / 1000) kg = 0.175 kg

heat loss by coffee = 0.175 × 4182 J/Kgk ( 85 - T) = 731.85 ( 85-T) = 62207.25 - 731.85 T

heat gain by aluminum spoon = 0.012kg × 897 J/kgK ( T - 22) = 10.764 T - 236.808

10.764 T - 236.808 = 62207.25 - 731.85 T

10.764 T + 731.85 T = 62207.25 + 236.808

T = 84.086 ° C approx 84°C

A body weighing 250 grams was dropped from a helicopter flying at an altitude of 100 meters. Determine the potential energy of t
kogti [31]

Answer:

the potential energy of this body is 245 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the body, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

height from which the body was dropped, h = 100 m

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The potential energy of this body is calculated as;

P.E = mgh

substitute the given values and solve for the potential energy of this body;

P.E = 0.25 x 9.8 x 100

P.E = 245 J.

Therefore, the potential energy of this body is 245 J.

A player kicks a football from ground level with an initial velocity of 27.0 m/s, 30.0° above the
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Option B. 2.8 s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (u) = 27 m/s

Angle of projection (θ) = 30

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time of flight (T) =?

The time of flight of the ball can be obtained as follow:

T = 2uSineθ / g

T = 2 × 27 × Sine 30 / 9.8

T = 2 × 27 × 0.5 / 9.8

T = 27 / 9.8

T = 2.8 s

Therefore, time of flight of the ball is 2.8 s

Why is oxygen more chemically reactive than nitrogen?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

O2 has two more electrons compared to N2, with extra 2 electrons in the higher energy anti-bonding orbitals known as Diradical. These electrons have higher energy and are unpaired; therefore, O2 is more reactive
