A calorimeter contained 350.0 g of water [cp=4.18 J/(g °C)] at 24.0 °C. An electric current was passed through a heater placed i

n the water. The heater transferred 16,700 J of energy to the water. What is the final temperature of the water?

Cp shows the amount of energy needed to raise temperature by one degree for one gram of water. 

Formula for calculating cp is:
cp= \frac{energy}{(mass)*( temperature_{change} ))}  \\ temperature_{change}= \frac{energy}{(mass)*( cp))}   \\  \\ temperature_{change}= \frac{16700}{(350)*( 4.18))}  \\  \\ temperature_{change}=2.73 \\  \\ temperature_{final} =temperature_{initial}+temperature_{change} \\ temperature_{final}=24 + 2.73 \\ temperature_{final}=26.73

Final temperature is 26.73°C.

10. Hamilton How long does it take Lewis travelling at 156 m.p.h to cover 16 miles?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer: Hello!

Lewis is travelling at 165 mph, which means miles per hour, this says that he does 165 miles in one hour.

We want to know how much time takes to cover 16 miles.

this can be calculated as the quotient of the distance and the velocity; this is:

t = \frac{16 mi}{165 mi/h} = 0.096 h

if we want to write this in minutes, then:

we know that one hour has 60 minutes, then 0.096 hours has:

0.096h*60mins/1h = 5.8 minutes.

then Lewis needs 5.8 minutes in order to cover 16 miles if his speed is 156 miles per hour.

A charged object is suspended motionless in the air by the gravitational force pulling it down and an electric force pushing it
Savatey [412]

The charge of the object must be 1.11 \times e^{-5} \text { coulomb }

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Suppose an electric charge can be represented by the symbol Q. This electric charge generates an electric field; Because Q is the source of the electric field, we call this as source charge. The electric field strength of the source charge can be measured with any other charge anywhere in the area. The test charges used to test the field strength.

Its quantity indicated by the symbol q. In the electric field, q exerts an electric, either attractive or repulsive force. As usual, this force is indicated by the symbol F. The electric field’s magnitude is simply defined as the force per charge (q) on Q.

         Electric field, E=\frac{\text { Force }(F)}{q}

Here, given E = 4500 N/C and F = 0.05 N.

We need to find charge of the object (q)

By substituting the given values, we get

      q=\frac{F}{E}=\frac{0.05 N}{4500 \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{c}}=1.11 \times e^{-5} \text { coulomb }

In this example we see how thermal expansion can actually throw off the accuracy of a length-measuring device—namely, a tape mea
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The new length is 50.00885m

Explanation:

linear thermal expansion coefficient Fe 11.8e-6 /K

The new length can be determined using the following equation:

∆L/L = α∆T, where α is linear thermal expansion coefficient

∆L = Lα∆T = 50(11.8e-6)(35-20) = 0.00885 m

New length = ( 50.000 + 0.00885)m =

New length = 50.00885 m
