The resistance of the sample is $682.5\Omega$

Explanation:

The relationship between resistance of a material and temperature is given by the equation

$R(T)=R_0(1+\alpha (T-T_0))$

where

$R_0$ is the resistance at the temperature $T_0$

$\alpha$ is the temperature coefficient of resistance

For the sample of nickel in this problem, we have:

$R_0 = 525 \Omega$ when the temperature is $T_0 = 20^{\circ}C$

While the temperature coefficient of resistance of nickel is

$\alpha = 0.006/^{\circ}C$

Therefore, the resistance of the sample when its temperature is

$T=70^{\circ}C$

is

$R=(525)(1+0.006(70-20))=682.5 \Omega$

If a plane has an airspeed of 40 m/s and is experiencing a crosswind of 30 m/s, what is its ground speed in m/s?

Anon25 [30]

<h2>Answer:50 $ms^{-1}$ </h2>

Explanation:

Let $v_{a}$ be the airspeed.

Let $v_{w}$ be the cross wind speed.

We know that,ground speed is the vector sum of airspeed and cross wind speed and airspeed is perpendicular to cross wind speed.

If $v_{1}$ and $v_{2}$ are two perpendicular vectors,the resultant vector has the magnitude $\sqrt{|v|_{1}^{2}+|v|_{2}^{2}}$

Given,

$v_{a}=40ms^{-1}\\v_{c}=30ms^{-1}$

So,the ground speed is $\sqrt{40^{2}+30^{2}}=\sqrt{2500}=50ms^{-1}$

Which of the following correctly describes the importance of demonstrations to scientific investigation?

sergey [27]

Answer:

A- A demonstration shows how something works, often including models

Explanation:

A demonstration allows, through experimentation, to show how nature works and in that way can include the explanation of scientific theories that explain the set of observed facts, that is, it serves as a demonstration of the underlying scientific principles.

39 g aluminum spoon (specific heat 0.904 J/g·°C) at 24°C is placed in 166 mL (166 g) of coffee at 83°C and the temperature of th

tatuchka [14]

<u>Answer:</u> The final temperature of the solution is $80.14^oC$

<u>Explanation:</u>

The amount of heat released by coffee will be absorbed by aluminium spoon.

Thus, $\text{heat}_{absorbed}=\text{heat}_{released}$

To calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed, we use the equation:

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

Also,

$m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c_2\times (T_{final}-T_2)]$ ..........(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

$m_1$ = mass of aluminium = 39 g

$m_2$ = mass of coffee = 166 g

$T_{final}$ = final temperature = ?

$T_1$ = temperature of aluminium = $24^oC$

$T_2$ = temperature of coffee = $83^oC$

$c_1$ = specific heat of aluminium = $0.904J/g^oC$

$c_2$ = specific heat of coffee= $4.1801J/g^oC$

Putting all the values in equation 1, we get:

$39\times 0.904\times (T_{final}-24)=-[166\times 4.1801\times (T_{final}-83)]$

$T_{final}=80.14^oC$

Hence, the final temperature of the solution is $80.14^oC$
