Answer: The most likely identity of the substance is iron.

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

Q = Heat absorbed=1.071\times 10^2 Joules

m= mass of substance = 11.9 g

c = specific heat capacity = ?

Initial temperature of the water = T_i = 25.0°C

Final temperature of the water = T_f  = 45.0°CChange in temperature ,\Delta T=T_f-T_i=(45-25)^0C=20^0C

Putting in the values, we get:

1.071\times 10^2=11.9\times c\times 20^0C

c=0.45J/g^0C

The specific heat of 0.45 is for iron and thus the substance is iron.

Compare and contrast static, sliding, and rolling friction.
Mama L [17]
Static friction - the friction that occurs when a force is being applied on a still object. 

Sliding friction - the friction that occurs upon a moving object; it is always lower than the static friction of the same object.

Rolling friction - the friction on a rolling object; it is actually a form of static friction with the contact point of the wheel with the surface.

A small cork is charged to +4.50 mC. Find the number of excess elementary charges (protons or electrons)
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

The third choice: 2.81*10^{16} \: \text{protons}

Explanation:

The cork is positively charged, therefore we know tat there must be excess of positively charged protons present.

The charge p^+ of a proton is

p^+ = +1.6*10^{-19}C;

therefore, the number n that makes up a charge of +4.5mC is

n = \dfrac{+4.5mC}{+1.6*10^{-19}C}  = \dfrac{+4.5*10^{-3}C}{+1.6*10^{-19}C}

\boxed{n =2.81*10^{16} \: \text{protons}}

which is the 3rd choice.
