Read the intro to lab 10. We are going to assume that the experiment was done in a styrofoam cup, so we are not going to include

the heat gained by the cup or the stirrer, A piece of hot metal is put into cool water. Conservation of energy requires that heat lost = heat gained. So, m c delta T for water = m c delta T for the metal. c for water is 4,19 j/gC Data: mass of water = 100 g starting temp of water = 20 C mass of metal = 60 g starting temp of metal = 100 C Final temp of water and metal = 24 C Calculate the specific heat of the metal, determine what metal it might be from the list in the lab manual and calculate a percent error. Enter the result of your calculations in the quiz named specific heat. It will count as a lab.

Answer:

e% = 3.4%

Explanation:

This is a calorimetry problem where the heat released equals the heat absorbed

         m c_{e1} (T₀ - T_f) = M c_{e2} (T₁ - T_f)

Index 1 refers to water and index 2 to metal, in this case it asks for the specific heat of the metal (c_{e2})

        c_{e2} = m / M c_{e1} (T_f -T₀) / (T₁ - T_f)

Let's calculate

      c_{e} = 60/100 4.19 (24-20) / (100-24)

      c_{e2} = 0.1323 j / gC

This metal is possibly lead, which is its specific heat is 0.128 J / gC

The percentage error is

        e% = (c_{e2} - 0.128) /0.128   100

         e% = 3.4%

A hamster eats a carrot before using its hamster wheel. The hamster wheel is connected to a generator which powers a light bulb.
Andrei [34K]

Answer: Chemical → Mechanical → Electrical → Radiant

Explanation:

First, the Hamster eats the carrot, then the hamster is getting chemical energy.

Now the hamster starts using his wheel, then he "transforms" the chemical energy into mechanical energy.

Now the mechanical energy is connected to a generator, this means that the mechanical energy (the rotation of the wheel) is being converted into electrical energy.

And we know that there is a light bulb powered by this electrical energy, then we have electrical energy being transformed into radiant energy.

Then the correct option is:

Chemical → Mechanical → Electrical → Radiant

Chris threw a basketball a distance of 27.5 m to score and win his
salantis [7]

Answer:

v₀ = 16.55 m/s

Explanation:

This motion of the ball can be modeled as a projectile motion with following data:

R = Range of Projectile = 27.5 m

θ = Launch Angle = 50°

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v₀ = Initial Speed of Ball = ?

Therefore, using formula for range of projectile, we have:

R = \frac{v_{0}^2\ Sin2\theta}{g}\\\\v_{0}^2 = \frac{Rg}{Sin2\theta}\\\\v_{0}^2 = \frac{(27.5\ m)(9.81\ m/s^2)}{Sin100^o}\\\\v_{0} = \sqrt{273.93\ m^2/s^2}

<u>v₀ = 16.55 m/s</u>

A projectile is shot directly away from Earth's surface. Neglect the rotation of the Earth. What multiple of Earth's radius RE g
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

(a) r = 1.062·R_E = \frac{531}{500} R_E

(b) r = \frac{33}{25} R_E

(c) Zero

Explanation:

Here we have escape velocity v_e given by

v_e =\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R_E} } and the maximum height given by

\frac{1}{2} v^2-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r}

Therefore, when the initial speed is 0.241v_e we have

v = 0.241\times \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R_E} } so that;

v² = 0.058081\times {\frac{2GM}{R_E} }

v² = {\frac{0.116162\times GM}{R_E} }

\frac{1}{2} v^2-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r} is then

\frac{1}{2} {\frac{0.116162\times GM}{R_E} }-\frac{GM}{R_E} = -\frac{GM}{r}

Which gives

-\frac{0.941919}{R_E} = -\frac{1}{r} or

r = 1.062·R_E

(b) Here we have

K_i = 0.241\times \frac{1}{2} \times m \times v_e^2 = 0.241\times \frac{1}{2} \times m  \times \frac{2GM}{R_E} = \frac{0.241mGM}{R_E}

Therefore we put  \frac{0.241GM}{R_E} in the maximum height equation to get

\frac{0.241}{R_E} -\frac{1}{R_E} =-\frac{1}{r}

From which we get

r = 1.32·R_E

(c) The we have the least initial mechanical energy, ME given by

ME = KE - PE

Where the KE = PE required to leave the earth we have

ME = KE - KE = 0

The least initial mechanical energy to leave the earth is zero.

Predict which molecule will show a similar relationship between its heat of fusion and its heat vaporization that water does
BaLLatris [955]

Question:

A) C6H6

B) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2COH6

C) NaCl

D) NH3

Answer:

The correct option is;

A) C₆H₆

Explanation:

Heat of fusion = 6.02 kJ/mol

Heat of vaporization =40.8 kJ/mol

Here, we analyze each of the options as follows

A) C₆H₆

Benzene has a melting point of 5.5° C and a boiling point of

80.1 ° C similar to water

Heat of fusion = 9.92 kJ/mol

Heat of vaporization =30.8kJ/mol

B) CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₂COH₆

The above compound is more likely solid

C) NaCl solid

D) NH₃ melting point = -77.73 °C boiling point =  -33.34 °C

Of the above, the compounds the one  that closely resembles water is C₆H₆

There are a variety of waves from light waves to mechanical waves. Waves can exhibit different effects like the Doppler Effect.

All light waves behave in a similar manner. They either get  transmitted, reflected, absorbed, refracted, polarized, diffracted, or scattered based off of the composition of the object and the wavelength of the light.

According to Wikipedia, “One important property of mechanical waves is that their amplitudes are measured in an unusual way, displacement divided by (reduced) wavelength. When this gets comparable to unity, significant nonlinear effects such as harmonic generation may occur, and, if large enough, may result in chaotic effects.” Mechanical waves are chaotic and its “amplitudes” are measured unusually.

Diffraction is when light bends around objects and spread after passing out through small openings. “Diffraction occurs with all waves, including sound waves, water waves, and electromagnetic waves such as light that the eye can see.”-Wikipedia. Here is the formula to Diffraction: <em>d </em>sin <em>θ </em>= <em>nλ</em>

Doppler effect can occur for any type of wave like sound or water waves. An example of this is when we hear a police car with its sirens on, coming towards us. The closer you are to the police car, the higher the wavelength, but the farther away you are, the lower the wavelength.
