Answer:

Specific heat of brass is 0.40 J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹ .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of brass, m₁ = 440 g

Temperature of brass, T₁ = 97° C

Mass of water, m₂ = 350 g

Temperature of water, T₂ = 23° C

Specific heat of water, C₂ = 4.18 J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹

Equilibrium temperature, T = 31° C

Let C₁ be the specific heat of brass.

Heat loss by brass = Heat gain by water

m₁ x C₁ x ( T₁ -T ) = m₂ x C₂ x ( T - T₁ )

Substitute the suitable values in above equation.

440 x C₁ x (97 - 31) = 350 x 4.18 x (31 - 23)

C₁ = $\frac{11704}{29040}$

C₁ = 0.40 J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹

An object is placed 10 cm in front of a diverging mirror. What is the focal length of the mirror if the image appears 2 cm behin

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

the focal length of the mirror is : $f=-2.5\,\,cm$

Explanation:

Use the formula for the formation of image using a divergent mirror and recalling that the image (s') that this mirror formed is virtual, so it is entered as a negative number in the formula. Use the object position (s) as 10, the image position (s') as -2, and derive the value of the focal length:

$\frac{1}{s} +\frac{1}{s'}=\frac{1}{f}\\\frac{1}{10} +\frac{1}{-2}=\frac{1}{f}\\\frac{1}{10} -\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{f}\\\frac{10\,f}{10} -\frac{10\,f}{2}=\frac{10\,f}{f}\\f-5\,f=10\\-4\,f=10\\f=-2.5\,\,cm$

You are driving down the highway late one night at 20 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 35m in front of you. Your reaction tim

8090 [49]

Answer:

- Distance between car and the deer when the car stopped = 20 m

- The time required for you to stop once you press the brakes = less than 5 s in order not to hit the deer.

Explanation:

Using the equations of motion,

In the 0.5 s reaction time, we need to first calculate how far he has travelled in that time.

a = 0 m/s² (Since the car is travelling at constant velocity)

x = ?

Initial velocity = u = 20 m/s

x = ut + at²/2

x = 20×0.5 + 0 = 10 m

From that moment,

a = - 10 m/s²

u = initial velocity at the start of the deceleration = 10 m/s

v = final velocity = 0 m/s

x = ?

v² = u² + 2ax

0² = 10² + 2(-10)(x)

20x = 100

x = 5 m

Total distance travelled from when the deer stepped onto the road = 10 + 5 = 15 m

Distance between car and the deer when the car stopped = 35 - 15 = 20 m

b) To determine the time required to stop once you step on the brakes

u = 10 m/s

t = ?

v = 0 m/s²

x = distance from when the brake was stepped on to the deer = 35 - 10 = 25 m

x = (u + v)t/2

25 = (10 + 0)t/2

10t = 50

t = 5 s

Meaning the time required to stop once you step on the brakes is less than 5s.

What acceleration will you give to a 24.5 kg

Ludmilka [50]

Heya!!

For calculate aceleration, lets applicate second law of Newton:

$\boxed{F=ma}$

<u>Δ Being Δ</u>

F = Force = 78,3 N

m = Mass = 24,5 kg

a = Aceleration = ?

⇒ Let's replace according the formula and clear "a":

$\boxed{a=78,3\ N / 24,5\ kg}$

⇒ Resolving

$\boxed{a=3.19\ m/s^{2}}$

Result:

The aceleration is <u>3,19 meters per second squared (m/s²)</u>

Good Luck!!
