Weight is a force so by F = ma, we have
weight = 10 x 1.6
= 16 N

An open container holds ice of mass 0.555 kg at a temperature of -16.6 ∘C . The mass of the container can be ignored. Heat is su
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: A. 23.59 minutes.

              B. 249.65 minutes

Explanation: This question involves the concept of Latent Heat and specific heat capacities of water in solid phase.

<em>Latent heat </em><em>of fusion </em>is the total amount of heat rejected from the unit mass of water at 0 degree Celsius to convert completely into ice of 0 degree Celsius (and the heat required for vice-versa process).

<em>Specific heat capacity</em> of a substance is the amount of heat required by the unit mass of a substance to raise its temperature by 1 kelvin.

Here, <u>given that</u>:

  • mass of ice, m= 0.555 kg
  • temperature of ice, T= -16.6°C
  • rate of heat transfer, q=820 J.min^{-1}
  • specific heat of ice, c_{i}= 2100 J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}
  • latent heat of fusion of ice, L_{i}=334\times10^{3}J.kg^{-1}

<u>Asked:</u>

1. Time require for the ice to start melting.

2. Time required to raise the temperature above freezing point.

Sol.: 1.

<u>We have the formula:</u>

Q=mc\Delta T

Using above equation we find the total heat required to bring the ice from -16.6°C to 0°C.

Q= 0.555\times2100\times16.6

Q= 19347.3 J

Now, we require 19347.3 joules of heat to bring the ice to 0°C  and then on further addition of heat it starts melting.

∴The time required before the ice starts to melt is the time required to bring the ice to 0°C.

t=\frac{Q}{q}

=\frac{19347.3}{820}

= 23.59 minutes.

Sol.: 2.

Next we need to find the time it takes before the temperature rises above freezing from the time when heating begins.

<em>Now comes the concept of Latent  heat into the play, the temperature does not starts rising for the ice as soon as it reaches at 0°C it takes significant amount of time to raise the temperature because the heat energy is being used to convert the phase of the water molecules from solid to liquid.</em>

From the above solution we have concluded that 23.59 minutes is required for the given ice to come to 0°C, now we need some extra amount of energy to convert this ice to liquid water of 0°C.

<u>We have the equation:</u> latent heat, Q_{L}= mL_{i}

Q_{L}= 0.555\times334\times10^{3}= 185370 J

<u>Now  the time required for supply of 185370 J:</u>

t=\frac{Q_{L}}{q}

t=\frac{185370}{820}

t= 226.06 minutes

∴ The time it takes before the temperature rises above freezing from the time when heating begins= 226.06 + 23.59

= 249.65 minutes

DEFINE REFRACTION? describe how a ray of light is refracted when it passes through a glass block​
jek_recluse [69]
When a ray passes from air into glass the direction in which the light ray is travelling changes. The light ray appears to bend as it as it passes through the surface of the glass. ... This 'bending of a ray of light' when it passes from one substance into another substance is called refraction.

How do galaxies vary?
givi [52]

The universe has trillions of galaxies and counting. Astronomers give names to each galaxy base on its shape (e.i, Sombrero galaxy, Milkyway Galazy, ect,.).

Also, the size of the galaxy is taken into account and their color.

What is the force that the gas exerts on each of the six sides of the box when the gas temperature is 20.0∘C?
Taya2010 [7]

Incomplete question as number of moles and length is missing.So I have assumed 3 moles and length of 0.300 m.So the complete question is here:

Three moles of an ideal gas are in a rigid cubical box with sides of length 0.300 m.What is the force that the gas exerts on each of the six sides of the box when the gas temperature is 20.0∘C?

Answer:

The Force act on each side is 2.43×10⁴N

Explanation:

Given data

n=3 mol

L=0.3 m

Temperature=20.0°C=293 K

To find

Force F

Solution

To get force act on each side it would employ by

F=P.A

Where P is pressure

A is Area

First we need to find pressure by applying ideal gas law

So

P.V=nRT\\P=\frac{nRT}{V}\\ P=\frac{(3mol)(8.315J/mol)(293K)}{(0.3m*0.3m*0.3m)}\\P=27.069*10^{4}Pa

So The Force is given as:

F=P.A\\F=(27.069*10^{4} )(0.3m*0.3m)\\F=2.43*10^{4}N

The Force act on each side is 2.43×10⁴N
