Given data:

Volume of calcite (V) = 15 cm³,

mass of calcite (m) = 40.5 g,

find the

density of calcite (ρ) = ?

density is defined as " it is the amount of matter of an object in a given volume". Simply it is the ratio of matter in an object to its volume. The unit of density is kg/m³ in SI system or g/cm³ in CGS system.

Mathematically,

density ( ρ) = mass/volume

= m/V g/cm³

= 40.5 g/15 cm³

= 2.7 g/cm³

Hence, the density of calcite is <em>2.7 g/cm³ </em>

What minimum heat is needed to bring 250 g of water at 20 ∘C to the boiling point and completely boil it away? The specific heat

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:633.8 KJ

Explanation:

Given

mass of water $\left ( m\right )=250gm$

Initial temperature $\left ( T_i\right )=20^{\circ}C$

Final temperature $\left ( T_f\right )=100^{\circ}C$

Specific heat of water $\left ( c \right )$ =4190 J/kg-k

heat of vaporization $\left ( L\right )=22.6\times 10^5 J/kg$

Heat required for process $\left ( Q\right )$ =heat to raise water temperature from 20 to 100 +Heat to vapourize water completely

Q=mc $\left ( T_f-T_i\right )+mL$

Q= $0.25\times 4190\times \left ( 100-20\right )+0.25\times 22\times 10^5$

Q= $\left ( 0.838+5.5\right )\times 10^5$

Q= $6.338\times 10^5J=633.8 KJ$

A proton is projected perpendicularly into a magnetic field that has a magnitude of 0.50 T. The field is then adjusted so that a

bixtya [17]

Answer:

$B_e = 2.72 \times 10^{-4} T$

Explanation:

As we know that when charge particle is projected in perpendicular magnetic field then the radius of the charge particle is given as

$F = qvB$

$\frac{mv^2}{r} = qvB$

now we have

$r = \frac{mv}{qB}$

since here radius of proton and electron will be same

so we will have

$r_e = r_p$

$\frac{m_e v}{q_e B_e} = \frac{m_p v}{q_p B_p}$

so we have

$B_e = \frac{B_p m_e}{m_p}$

given that

$B_p = 0.50 T$

$m_e = 9.11 \times 10^{-31} kg$

$m_p = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg$

so we have

$B_e = \frac{0.50(9.11\times 10^{-31})}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}$

$B_e = 2.72 \times 10^{-4} T$

A helicopter flying west begins experiencing an acceleration of 3m/s2 east. Will the magnitude of its velocity increase or decre

Rama09 [41]

The acceleration measures the change in velocity.

Since the acceleration is in the direction opposite to the speed, the velocity eastwards will decrease : its magnitude will first decrease, then it reach 0 m/s, then finally it will increase again.
