If 2050 J of heat are added to a 150 g object its temperature increases by 15°C.

Physics

Darina [25.2K]3 years ago

When an object gets heated by a temperature ΔT energy needed, E = mcΔT

Here energy is given E = 2050 J

Mass of object = 150 g

Change in temperature ΔT  = 15 ^0C = 15 K

a) Heat capacity of an object equal to the ratio of the heat added to (or removed from) an object to the resulting temperature change.

  So heat capacity = E/ΔT = 2050/15 = 136.67 J/K

b) We have E = mcΔT

                    c = \frac{2050}{150*10^{-3}*15}  = 911.11 J/kgK

 So object's specific heat = 911.11 J/kgK

Answer:

C) Burmese pythons lack natural predators and can utilize a wide variety of food sources in the Everglades.

Explanation:

Due to it being an invasive specie (naturally found in South Asia), and also one of the five largest species of snakes in the world, the Burmese pythons lack natural predators in this new territories.

The Burmese viper is also an opportunistic hunter and would eat anything it can overpower, it easily made a wide range of food varieties in these swamps.

What is the relationship between temperature and altitude in the stratosphere? (2 points).
stealth61 [152]
As altitude increases, temperature increases. The stratosphere is the part of the atmosphere that starts in the tropopause and ends in the estratopause. In the troposphere, the air is close to the Earth surface. The air surface can absorb more sunlight energy than the air, so the Earth surface heats the air. As you go higher, the distance to the Earth surface is higher, so the temperature is lower. The troposphere ends in the tropopause, where this trend changes. In the estratopause, there is a lot of ozone, which absorbs the dangerous UV radiation and converts into heat. That heat warms the air. So the air which is close to the estratopause is warm because of the heat released by the ozone reactions. The tropopause is far from the Earth surface and far from the ozone layer, that’s why it is cold. So the tropopause is cold and the estratopause is warm, which means: the air becomes warmer <span>as you rise above the tropopause until you get to the estratopause.</span>

As SCUBA divers go deeper underwater, the pressure from the weight of all the water above them increases tremendously which comp
slavikrds [6]

Answer: A.

As a diver rises, the pressure on their body decreases which allows the volume of the gas to decrease.

Explanation:

The problem is that a diver, experiences an increased pressure of water compresses nitrogen and more of it dissolves into the body. Just as there is a natural nitrogen saturation point at the surface, there are saturation points under water. Those depend on the depth, the type of body tissue involved, and also how long a diver is exposed to the extra pressure. The deeper a diver go, the more nitrogen the body absorbs.

The problem is getting rid of the nitrogen once you ascend again. As the pressure diminishes, nitrogen starts dissolving out of the tissues of the diver's body, a process called "off-gassing." That results in tiny nitrogen bubbles that then get carried to the lungs and breathed out. However, if there is too much nitrogen and/or it is released too quickly, small bubbles can combine to form larger bubbles, and those can do damage to the body, anything from minor discomforts all the way to major problems and even death.

If a 3.5 gram ping pong ball were traveling to the right horizontally at 12 m/s, and a larger 12 g super ball were thrown direct
algol [13]

Answer:

v = 14.32 m/s

Explanation:

According to the principle of conservation of linear momentum, both the momentum and kinetic energy of the system are conserved. Since the two balls are in the same direction of motion before collision, then;

m_{1} u_{1} + m_{2} u_{2} = (m_{1} + m_{2}) v

0.035 × 12 + 0.120 × 15 = (0.035 + 0.120) v

0.420 + 1.800 = (0.155) v

2.22 = 0.155 v

⇒ v = \frac{2.22}{0.155}

      = 14.323

The velocity of the balls after collision is 14.32 m/s.
