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

e spoon itself will cool the coffee a little. If a 12 gram aluminum teaspoon at 22 o C is placed in 175 ml of water (coffee's specific heat is close to water's) at 85 o C, what will the final temperature be? (Other factors, such as heat transfer to the air, may be ignored.)

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 floating ice block is pushed through a displacement d = (13.5 m)i + (-14.3 m)j along a straight embankment by rushing water, w
fredd [130]

To solve this problem, we are going to use the formula for work which is Fd where x and y are measured separately.

 

X direction: W = 13.5 x 230 = 3105 Joules

Y direction: W = -14.3 x -165 = 2360 Joules

So the total work is getting the sum of the two: 3105 + 2360 = 5465 Joules

A diffraction grating with 1000 lines per mm is used in a spectrometer to measure the wavelengths of light emitted from a gas di
frez [133]

Answer:

= 9.8°

Explanation:

Width of one slit (a₁ ) = 1 / 1000 mm=0.001 mm = 10⁻⁶ m.

width of one slit in case 2 (a₂ ) = 1/500 =2 x 10⁻⁶ m

angular position of fringe, Sinθ  = n λ /a

n is order of fringe , λ is wave length of light and a  is slit aperture

So Sinθ  ∝ 1 / a

Sin θ₁ /Sin θ₂ = a₂/a₁ ;

Sin20°/sinθ₂ = 2 / 1

sinθ₂ = Sin 20° / 2 = .342/2 = .171

θ₂ = 9.8 °

A red train traveling at 72 km/hr and a green train traveling at 144 km/hr are headed toward one another along a straight level
Temka [501]
First, convert all the km/hr into m/s

You will get that
initial speed = 20 m/s
Initial speed of Green train = 40 m/s
Initial separation = 950 m
Velocity of approach =  20 - -40 = 60 m/s
relative acceleration = -4 m/s^2

v = u + at
0 = 60 - 4t

t = 15s

s = ut + 1/2  *at * t

s = 60 * 15  - 1/2 *4 * 225
s = 900 - 450

Separation when they stop  = 450 m

hope this helps

dexar [7]

Answer:

t = 25 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance, d = 115 m

Initial speed, u = 4.2 m/s

Final speed, v = 5 m/s

We need to find the time taken in increasing the speed.

We know that,

Acceleration, a=\dfrac{v-u}{t} ....(1)

The third equation of kinematics is as follows :

v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\\text{Put the value of a in above equation}\\\\v^2-u^2=2\times \dfrac{v-u}{t}\times d\\\\\because (a^2-b^2)=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\(v-u)(v+u)=\dfrac{2\times (v-u)d}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{2d}{v+u}\\\\\text{Putting all the values}\\\\t=\dfrac{2\times 115}{4.2+5}\\\\t=25\ s

Hence, it will take 25 seconds to increase the speed.
