A copper block with a mass of 300 grams is cooled to 77 K by being immersed in liquid nitrogen. The block is then placed in a St

yrofoam cup containing some water that is initially at +50.0°C. Assume no heat is transferred to the cup or the surroundings. The specific heat of liquid water is 4186 J/(kg °C), of solid water is 2060 J/(kg °C), and of copper is 385 J/(kg °C). The latent heat of fusion of water is 3.35 105 J/kg. What is the mass of water in the cup, if the final temperature is −20.0°C?

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of copper m = 0.3 kg

Initial temperature t₁ 77K = 77 - 273 = -196°C

Final temperature t₂ = - 20°C

Mass of water M = ?

Initial temperature of water = 50°C

Final temperature = - 20°C

Heat lost by copper

0.3 x 385 x ( -20+ 196 )

= 20328 J

Heat lost by water to cool to 0°C

= M x4186 x (50-0)

= 209300 M

Heat lost by water to cool to freeze at 0°C

= M x 335 x 10³ J

Heat lost by ice  to cool to - 20°C

= Mx 2060 x 20

= 41200 M

Total heat gained

= 585500 M

Heat lost by water = heat gained by copper block

585500 M  =  20328

M = .03472 Kg

= 34.72 g

It is dangerous to stand near the railway leak when train passing by,why?​
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Because a person may be pulled in the direction of the moving train. Thereby causing accident

Explanation:

According to Daniel Bernoulli's theorem, he was widely known as a Mathematician. He stated that due to the higher velocity of a moving train, there is higher kinetic energy in terms of volume around it, while the air pressure between the person and the train becomes lower.

As a result, a person near a moving train may be pulled in the direction of the moving train. Thereby causing accidents that may lead to death.

The latent heat of fusion of alcohol is 50 kcal/kg and its melting point is -54oC. It has a specific heat of 0.60 in its liquid
sashaice [31]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

To melt the alcohol

Heat needed = M . L  = 2 . 25  = 50 kcal

To warm up the alcohol

Heat needed = M . sp. ht. . ∆t   = 2 . 0.6 . 100  = 120 kcal

Total heat needed = 170 kcal

Assuming that 0.6 kcal/ kg / ˚C  is the specific heat and that the answer is wanted in kcal ( a rather odd unit to be in use here.)

You'd get an extra 40/60 of the energy, or 2/3. Multiply 5/3 by the required energy to get the actual consumption.

The chart shows masses and velocities of four objects. Which lists the objects in order, from least to greatest momentum?
damaskus [11]
Momentum is the product of mass x velocity.

p = mv

Where: p = momentum
             m = mass
             v = velocity

Now you can answer your question by finding the momentum of each:

p = mv
p(w) = 12 x 5 = 60
p(x) = 15 x 8 = 120
p(y) = 18 x 2 = 36
p(z) = 28 x 10 = 280

With that you can now arrange them in ascending order (least to greatest):
 Y < W < X < Z

Your answer is D.

kotegsom [21]
Hydrostatic equilibrium is the energy balance between two forces at the stars: the inward force of gravity (<span>due to the </span>mass<span> of the star) </span>and the outward gas pressure (due to the energy release from nuclear reactions in the core of the star). Hydrostatic equilibrium is important because it holds the star together.
