In a waterfall, water falls 60 m. Assume all the potential energy change increases its enthalpy (or internal energy, in this cas

e they change by the same amount because this is an incompressible liquid). The specific heat capacity for water is 4184 J/kg·°C. Calculate the temperature rise of the water in °C. (8 points)

Answer:

The  temperature rise of the water is = 0.14 °c

Explanation:

Height = 60 m

Potential energy change ΔP = m gh

ΔP =  m × 9.81 × 60

ΔP = (588.6 × m) Joule

Since the Potential energy change is equal to the internal energy change or Enthalpy change.

ΔP = ΔH

Since  ΔH = m × C × ΔT

⇒ ΔP = m × C × ΔT

Put all the values in above formula we get

⇒ 588.6 × m = m × 4184 × ΔT

⇒ ΔT= 0.14 °c

Therefore the  temperature rise of the water is = 0.14 °c

sweet-ann [11.9K]
To calculate the gravitational force acting on an object given the mass and the acceleration due to gravity, use the following formula.

Fg = m • g
Fg = 1.3 kg • 9.8 m/s^2
Fg = 12.74 N or about 12.7 N.

The solution is C. 12.7 N.

When an object is in circular motion it is constantly changing its velocity.
EleoNora [17]

Its tangential speed is constant although its velocity is changing. As the object changes direction, it results in a changing of positive and negative signs of the velocity. Although, the magnitude of the velocity (speed) is not changing.

wel

If an electron, a proton, and a deuteron move in a magnetic field with the same momentum perpendicularly, the ratio of the radii of their circular paths will be:

  • 1: √2 : 1

<h3>How is the ratio of the perpendicular parts obtained?</h3>

To obtain the ratio of the perpendicular parts, one begins bdy noting that the mass of the proton = 1m, the mass of deuteron = 2m, and the mass of the alpha particle  = 4m.

The ratio of the radii of the parts can be obtained by finding the root of the masses and dividing this by the charge. When the coefficients are substituted into the formula, we will have:

r = √m/e : √2m/e : √4m/2e

When resolved, the resulting ratios will be:

1: √2 : 1
