Answer:

10 degree C

Explanation:

Q = 500 kcal = 500 x 1000 x 4.186 J = 2.1 x 10^6 J

V = 50 liter

m = Volume x density = 50 x 10^3 x 1000 = 50 kg

Let ΔT be the rise in temperature.

Specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg C

Q = m x c x ΔT

2.1 x 10^6 = 50 x 4186 x ΔT

ΔT = 10 degree C

Which of the following mixture can be separate using decantation method?​
vivado [14]

Answer:

Hi sorry for answering here but you didnt put the options there

Explanation:

I'll still try to answer though so maybe the mixture from one of the questions might be something like oil and water which don't mix and can be separated by decantation so something similar would work. Hope this helps

What is one advantage of using electromagnets instead of permanent magnets
zimovet [89]
The main advantage of an electromagnet over a permanent magnet is that the magnetic field can be quickly changed by controlling the amount of electric current in the winding. However, unlike a permanent magnet that needs no power, an electromagnet requires a continuous supply of current to maintain the magnetic field.

A student drops an object out the window of the top floor of a high-rise dormitory.
seropon [69]

-- The acceleration due to gravity is 32.2 ft/sec² .  That  means that the
speed of a falling object increases by an additional 32.2 ft/sec every second.

-- If dropped from "rest" (zero initial speed), then after falling for 4 seconds,
the object's speed is (4.0) x (32.2) = <em>128.8 ft/sec</em>.

-- 128.8 ft/sec = <em>87.8 miles per hour</em>

Now we can switch over to the metric system, where the acceleration
due to gravity is typically rounded to 9.8 meters/sec² .

-- Distance = (1/2) x (acceleration) x (time)²

       D = (1/2) (9.8) x (4)² =<em>  78.4 meters</em>

-- At 32 floors per 100 meters,  78.4 meters = dropped from the <em>25th floor</em>.


The 5 points are certainly appreciated, but I do wish they were Celsius points.

Answer:

\frac{F}{W} = 9.37 \times 10^{-4}

Explanation:

Radius of the pollen is given as

r = 12.0 \mu m

Volume of the pollen is given as

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi (12\mu m)^3

V = 7.24 \times 10^{-15} m^3

mass of the pollen is given as

m = \rho V

m = 7.24 \times 10^{-12}

so weight of the pollen is given as

W = mg

W = (7.24 \times 10^{-12})(9.81)

W = 7.1 \times 10^{-11}

Now electric force on the pollen is given

F = qE

F = (-0.700\times 10^{-15})(95)

F = 6.65 \times 10^{-14} N

now ratio of electric force and weight is given as

\frac{F}{W} = \frac{6.65 \times 10^{-14}}{7.1 \times 10^{-11}}

\frac{F}{W} = 9.37 \times 10^{-4}
