Answer:

75.5g

Explanation:

From the ionic equation, we can write

CU^{2+}+SO^{2-}_{4}\\

next we find the number of charge

Note Q=it

for i=8.5A, t=3.75 to secs 3.75*60*60=13500secs

hence

Q=8.5*13500\\Q=114750C

Since one faraday represent one mole of electron which equal 96500C

Hence the number of mole produced by 114750C is

114750/96500=1.2mol

The mass of copper produced is

mol=\frac{mass}{molar mass} \\mass=mole*molar mass\\mass=1.2*63.5\\mass=75.5g

Hence the amount of copper produced is 75.5g

Answer:

75.5 g.

Explanation:

Dissociation equation:

Cu2+ + SO4^2- --> CuSO4

Q = I * t

Where,

I = current

= 8.5 A

t = time

= 3.75 hours

= 13500 s

Q = 8.5 * 13500

= 114750 C

1 faraday represent one mole of electron which equal 96500C

Number of mole of Cu2+

= 114750/96500

= 1.19 mol.

Mass = number of moles * molar mass

= 1.19 * 63.5

= 75.5 g.

A Carnot heat engine has an efficiency of 0.400. If it operates between a deep lake with a constant temperature of 298.0k and a
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

496.7 K

Explanation:

The efficiency of a Carnot engine is given by the equation:

\eta = 1 - \frac{T_H}{T_L}

where:

T_H is the temperature of the hot reservoir

T_C is the temperature of the cold reservoir

For the engine in the problem, we know that

\eta = 0.400 is the efficiency

T_C = 298.0 K is the temperature of the cold reservoir

Solving for T_H, we find:

\frac{T_C}{T_H}=1-\eta\\T_H = \frac{T_C}{1-\eta} =\frac{298.0}{1-0.400}=496.7 K

A permanent magnet has a magnetic dipole moment of 0.160 A · m^2. The magnet is in the presence of an external uniform magnetic
Elena L [17]

Answer:

the magnitude of the torque  on the permanent magnet = 7.34×10⁻³ Nm

the potential energy (in J) of the system consisting of the permanent magnet and the magnetic field provided by the coils =  -1.0485 ×10⁻² J

Explanation:

The torque is given by :

\bar {N} = \bar {m} * \bar {B}

where ;

m = 0.160 A.m²

B = 0.0800 T

θ = 35°

So the magnitude of the torque N = mBsinθ

N = (0.160)(0.0800)(sin 35°)

N = 0.007341

N = 7.34×10⁻³ Nm

Hence, the magnitude of the torque  on the permanent magnet = 7.34×10⁻³ Nm

b) The potential energy \bar{U} = \bar{-m} * \bar{B}

U = -mBcosθ

U = (- 0.160)(0.0800)(cos 45)

U = -0.010485

U = -1.0485 ×10⁻² J

Thus, the potential energy (in J) of the system consisting of the permanent magnet and the magnetic field provided by the coils =  -1.0485 ×10⁻² J
