A 35.2-g sample of an alloy at 93.0°C is placed into 219 g of water at 22.0°C in an insulated coffee cup. Assume that no heat is

absorbed by the cup. If the final temperature of the system is 31.1°C, what is the specific heat capacity of the alloy in J/(g.K)? Don't include units. cH2O = 4.184 J/g.K

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of the alloy = 35.2 g

temperature t of the alloy = 93° C

heat loss by alloy = mc ( t₁ - t₂) where t₁ = 93 and t₂ = 31.1° C

heat loss by alloy = 2178.88 c where c is the specific heat capacity of the alloy

heat gained by water = m cw ( t₂ - t₁ ) where t₁ of water = 22° C and t₂ of water = 31.1° C

heat gained by water = 8338.294

heat gained = heat loss

2171.84 c =  8338.294

c specific heat capacity of the alloy = 8338.294 / 2178.88 = 3.83 J/g.K

Which of the following statements are true?
inessss [21]

Answer:

a. If an object's speed is constant, then its acceleration must be zero.

FALSE

As we know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity

a = \frac{d\vec v}{dt}

so we can not say anything about the acceleration when speed is given to as and no information is given about velocity

b. If an object's acceleration is zero, then its speed must be constant.

TRUE

As we know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity

a = \frac{d\vec v}{dt}

Since we know that if acceleration is 0 then velocity must be constant and hence speed is also constant

c. If an object's velocity is constant, then its speed must be constant.

TRUE

Since velocity is constant then it shows that its magnitude and direction both are constant so its speed is also constant.

d. If an object's acceleration is zero, its velocity must be constant.

TRUE

As we know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity

a = \frac{d\vec v}{dt}

Since we know that if acceleration is 0 then velocity must be constant

e. If an object's speed is constant, then its velocity must be constant.

FALSE

Speed is just the magnitude so we can not say about its direction and hence if speed is constant then velocity may or may not change

Express the kinetic energy K in terms of the potential energy U.<br><br><br> K=GMm/2R
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

K = -½U

Explanation:

From Newton's law of gravitation, the formula for gravitational potential energy is;

U = -GMm/R

Where,

G is gravitational constant

M and m are the two masses exerting the forces

R is the distance between the two objects

Now, in the question, we are given that kinetic energy is;

K = GMm/2R

Re-rranging, we have;

K = ½(GMm/R)

Comparing the equation of kinetic energy to that of potential energy, we can derive that gravitational kinetic energy can be expressed in terms of potential energy as;

K = -½U
