A 26.4 g silver ring (cp = 234 J/kg·°C) is heated to a temperature of 66.2°C and then placed in a calorimeter containing 4.94 ✕

10-2 kg of water at 24.0°C. The calorimeter is not perfectly insulated, however, and 0.136 J of energy is transferred to the surroundings before a final temperature is reached. What is the final temperature?

Answer:

The final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.

Explanation:

Heat lost by the silver ring = heat gained by the water + heat transferred to the surrounding.

c₁m₁(t₁-t₃) = c₂m₂(t₃-t₂) + Q..............Equation 1

Where c₁ = specific heat capacity of the silver copper, m₁ = mass of the silver copper, t₁ = initial temperature of the silver copper, t₃ = final temperature of the mixture. c₂ = specific heat capacity of water, t₂ = initial temperature of water, m₂ = mass of water, Q = energy transferred to the surrounding.

making t₃ the subject of the equation,

t₃ = [c₁m₁t₁+c₂m₂t₂-Q]/(c₁m₁+c₂m₂)........................ Equation 2

Given: c₁ = 234 J/kg.°C, m₁ = 26.4 g, t₁ = 66.2 °C, c₂ = 4200 J/K.°C, m₂ = 4.92×10⁻² kg, t₂ = 24.0 °C, Q = 0.136 J.

Substituting into equation 2

t₃ = [(234×26.4×66.2)+(4200×0.0492×24)-0.136]/[(234×26.4)+(4200×0.0492)]

t₃ = (408957.12+4959.36-0.136)/(6177.6+206.64)

t₃ = (413916.48-0.136)/6384.24

t₃ = 413916.34/6384.24

Thus the final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.

Do houses use parallels or series circuits
Vilka [71]

Every electrical outlet in your house, and every device or appliance that's
plugged into an outlet, are all in parallel.  It's also most likely that all of yours
are in parallel with all the outlets, devices, and appliances in the homes or
apartments of a few of your neighbors.

The only things in your home that are connected in series are the switches
that turn things on and off.

What are the characteristics of Earth’s lithosphere and how does the lithosphere play a role in plate tectonics?
pashok25 [27]
The lithosphere includes the brittle upper portion of the mantle and the crust, the outermost layers of Earth's structure. It is bounded by the atmosphere above and the asthenosphere (another part of the upper mantle) below. Although the rocks of the lithosphere are still considered elastic, they are not viscous
