Answer:

35.578g or 36g if you round

Explanation:

Q=mc ∆∅ where ∅ is temperature difference

1160= m x 1.716 x (42-23)

m = 1160/ 1.716 x19

m=35.578g

m = 36g to nearest whole number

When body temperature rises during physical activity, which thermoregulatory response is stimulated?
navik [9.2K]

Answer: Heat dissipation mechanism

Explanation: Heat dissipation mechanism is a thermoregulatory response in humans whereby the hypothalamus of the brain initiates certain processes to reduce the high body temperature. Eg, sweating is initiated which helps cool down the body temperature, also superficial arteries are dilated, thereby leading to flushing and decreasing heatloss into the air. And metabolic heat production is also reduced.

An unknown metal has a mass of 86.8 g. When 5040 J of heat are added to the sample, the sample temperature changes by 64.7 ∘ C .
grandymaker [24]

Answer: The specific heat of the unknown metal is 0.897J/g^0C

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

Q = Heat absorbed=5040 Joules

m= mass of substance = 86.8 g

c = specific heat capacity = ?

Initial temperature of the water = T_i

Final temperature of the water = T_f

Change in temperature ,\Delta T=T_f-T_i=(64.7)^0C

Putting in the values, we get:

5040=86.8\times c\times 64.7^0C

c=0.897J/g^0C

The specific heat of the unknown metal is 0.897J/g^0C
