A 0.95-kg sample of water at 11°C is in a calorimeter. You drop a piece of steel with a mass of 0.39 kg at 212°C into it. After

the sizzling subsides, what is the final equilibrium temperature? Make the reasonable assumptions that any steam produced condenses into liquid water during the process of equilibration and that the evaporation and condensation taken together don't affect the outcome, as we'll see later.

Answer:

20 °C

Explanation:

The calorimeter is an isolated system, so no heat is lost to the surroundings:

Qnet = 0

We will designate the steel (assumed to be carbon steel) as system 1 and the water as system 2, so the equation becomes:

Q₁ + Q₂ = 0

m₁c₁(Teq - Ti₁) + m₂c₂(Teq - Ti₂) = 0

As indicated in the problem, we will assume the steel only heats the water to raise its temperature and does not vaporize the water.

We substitute in the values and solve for Teq, the final equilibrium temperature. The specific heat capacity of water is 4184 Jkg⁻¹°C⁻¹ and of carbon steel, 502.416 Jkg⁻¹°C⁻¹:

(0.39 kg)(502.416 Jkg⁻¹°C⁻¹)(Teq - 212 °C) + (0.95 kg)(4184 Jkg⁻¹°C⁻¹)(Teq - 11 °C) = 0

(195.94224 J°C⁻¹)(Teq - 212 °C) + (3974.8 J°C⁻¹)(Teq - 11 °C) = 0

(195.94224 J°C⁻¹)Teq - 41539.75 J + (3974.8 J°C⁻¹)Teq - 43722.8 J = 0

(4170.74224 J°C⁻¹)Teq = 85262.55 J

Teq = 20 °C

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

55 kg

Explanation:

spring constant (k) = 600 N/m

mass of chair (Mc) = 12 kg

period of oscillation of chair and man (T) = 2.1 s

what is the mass of the astronaut (Ma) ?

mass of the astronaut (Ma) = total mass (Mt) - mass of chair (Mc)

where

  • total mass (Mt) = \frac{T^{2}}{4π^{2}}k

       taking π as 3.142

       total mass (Mt) = \frac{2.1^{2}}{4 x 3.142^{2}}600

       total mass (Mt) = 67 kg

therefore

mass of astronaut = 67 - 12 = 55 kg

MICROWAVE
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Microwave is used to heat the food and uses a different form of electromagnetic radiation. The form of electromagnetic radiation used in microwaves are radio waves and infrared radiation.

The frequency of such electromagnetic waves is 2,450 megahertz (2.45 gigahertz) and the wavelength range is approximately of 30 cm (frequency = 1 GHz) to 1 mm (300 GHz).

<u>Microwaves or electromagnetic radiation produced by a magnetron, an electron tube in the microwave. The cavity of the magnetron cavity magnetron produces electromagnetic waves defined wavelength. Electromagnetic radiation strikes within the metals in the microwave and is absorbed by food. Electromagnetic radiation allows the vibration of water molecules in the food and makes the food hot.</u>

How do we think the "hot Jupiters" around other stars were formed? How do we think the "hot Jupiters" around other stars were fo
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

One of the leading theories of hot-Jupiter formation holds that gas giants in distant orbits become hot Jupiters when the gravitational influences from nearby stars or planets drive them into closer orbits. They formed as gas giants beyond the frost line and then migrated inwards.

Explanation:

In the migration hypothesis, a hot Jupiter forms beyond the frost line, from rock, ice, and gases via the core accretion method of planetary formation. The planet then migrates inwards to the star where it eventually forms a stable orbit. The planet may have migrated inward smoothly via type II orbital migration.  

Hot-Jupiters are heated gas giant planets that are very close to their stars, just a few million miles distant and orbiting their stellar hosts in just a few days. The reason why there isn't one in our Solar System is down to its formation. All gas giants form far from their star but then some migrate inwards.

Hot-Jupiters  will just happen to transit about 10% (that is, since orbital planes) this is consistent with the rate expected from geometry of . The actual frequencies of hot Jupiters around normal stars is surprisingly hard to figure out.
