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.

EastWind [94]

Answer:

(B) the sum total of all matter and energy

Explanation:

Universe comprises of all the matter and energy that exists in space. It contains billions of stars, planets and interstellar matter that is clouds of dust and gas. There is large amount of the empty space in between.

Universe contains stars as many as grains of sand on all beaches on the Earth. These stars are grouped into galaxies. Milky Way is one of the galaxies.  Galaxies can be grouped into clusters and super-clusters.

Two strong magnets were brought close to each other. They were repelling each other. Explain what must have happened.​
r-ruslan [8.4K]

When two magnets are brought together, the opposite poles will attract one another, but the like poles will repel one another. This is similar to electric charges. Like charges repel, and unlike charges attract.

NemiM [27]

Answer:

I think the 1st statement is right.

Explanation:

Wind patterns doesn't stay the same.

Waves don't follow the same patterns.

Waves move further up the shore.

I didn't hear about "waves adding" before..so i guess 1st statement is right.

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

2) a_y= -g  3) vₓ=constant v_y = v_{oy} - g t, 4)  vₓ = v₀ₓ - ax t

5)  changes the horizontal speed, should change range

7) changes the vertical speed change the maximum height

Explanation:

1) After reading your long writing, we are going to solve the exercise, in the attachment you can see the different vectors.

2) The acceleration vectors are vertical and directed downwards due to the attraction of the Earth (gravity force) this force is constant, on the x axis there is no acceleration

3) the velocity vectors on the x-axis are constant because there are no relationships and the y-axis changes value according to the expression

           v_y = v_{oy} - gt

at the point of maximum height, vy = 0 is equal to the maximum height

4) For someone to change the horizontal acceleration we must assume a friction with the air, in this case they relate it would be in the opposite direction to the horizontal speed

In the graph it would be directed to the left, therefore the velocity would be

           vₓ = v₀ₓ - ax t

5 and 6) If someone changes the horizontal speed, they should change the range of the shot for greater horizontal speed, the rock goes further.

the equations of motion are

           x = v₀ₓ t

           y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

7) If someone changes the vertical speed change the maximum height, but not the scope of the shot, for higher speed higher maximum height,

the equations of motion are the same.
