The specific heat of substance A is greater than that of substance B. Both A and B are at the same initial temperature when equa
Sonja [21]

Answer:

m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T)

For this case, if we try to find the final temperature of A and B, we see that we will obtain an expression in terms of specific heats and masses, from the information given we know the relationship between specific heats, but we don't know the relationship that exists among the masses, then the best option for this case is:

d) More information is needed

(The relation between the masses is not given)

Explanation:

For this case we know the following info:

c_{pA} > c_{pB}

Where c means specific heat for the substance A and B.

We also know that the initial temperatures for both sustances are equal:

T_{iA}= T_{iB}

We assume that we don't have melting or vaporization in the 2 substances. So we just have presence of sensible heat given by this formula:

Q = m c_p \Delta T

And for this case we know that Both A and B are at the same initial temperature when equal amounts of energy are added to them, so then we have this:

Q_A = Q_B

And if we replace the formula for sensible heat we got:

m_A c_{pA} \Delta T_A = m_B c_{pB} \Delta T_B

And if we replace for the change of the temperature we got:

m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T_{iA}) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T_{iB})

And since T_{iA}= T_{iB}= T we have this:

m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T)

For this case, if we try to find the final temperature of A and B, we see that we will obtain an expression in terms of specific heats and masses, from the information given we know the relationship between specific heats, but we don't know the relationship that exists among the masses, then the best option for this case is:

d) More information is needed

(The relation between the masses is not given)

Which object has the most gravitational potential energy?
Kipish [7]

Answer: An 8 kg book at a height of 3 m has the most gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the product of mass of object, height of object and gravitational field.

So, formula to calculate gravitational potential energy is as follows.

U = mgh

where,

m = mass of object

g = gravitational field = 9.81 m/s^{2}

h = height of object

(A) m = 5 kg and h = 2m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

U = mgh\\= 5 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 2 m\\= 98.1 J    (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})

(B) m = 8 kg and h = 2 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

U = mgh\\= 8 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 2 m\\= 156.96 J    (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})

(C) m = 8 kg and h = 3 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

U = mgh\\= 8 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 3 m\\= 235.44 J    (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})

(D) m = 5 kg and h = 3 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

U = mgh\\= 5 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 3 m\\= 147.15 J    (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})

Thus, we can conclude that an 8 kg book at a height of 3 m has the most gravitational potential energy.

Natasha2012 [34]

Explanation:

answer 689910

M x G x H

mass = 77

G= 9.8

Meter = 915 this is the height

77 x 9.8= 754.6

754.6 X 915 = 689910 J
