Answer : The correct option is, (c) 3.7\times 10^2J/^oC

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the energy or heat.

Formula used :

E=V\times I\times t

where,

E = energy (in joules)

V = voltage (in volt)

I = current (in ampere)

t = time (in seconds)

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

E=(3.6V)\times (2.6A)\times (350s)

E=3276J

Now we have to calculate the heat capacity of the calorimeter.

Formula used :

C=\frac{E}{\Delta T}=\frac{E}{T_{final}-T_{initial}}

where,

C = heat capacity of the calorimeter

T_{initial} = initial temperature = 20.3^oC

T_{final} = final temperature = 29.1^oC

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

C=\frac{3276J}{(29.1-20.3)^oC}

C=372.27J/^oC=3.7\times 10^2J/^oC

Therefore, the heat capacity of the calorimeter is, 3.7\times 10^2J/^oC

A box slides down a 30.0° ramp with an acceleration of 1.20 m/s^2. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box
Zielflug [23.3K]

m = mass of the box

N = normal force on the box

f = kinetic frictional force on the box

a = acceleration of the box

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction

perpendicular to incline , force equation is given as

N = mg Cos30                                         eq-1

kinetic frictional force is given as

f = μ N

using eq-1

f = μ mg Cos30    


parallel to incline , force equation is given as

mg Sin30 - f = ma

mg Sin30 - μ mg Cos30  = ma

"m" cancel out

a = g Sin30 - μ g Cos30

inserting the values

1.20 = (9.8) Sin30 - (9.8) Cos30 μ

μ = 0.44

How can a scientist ensure that his or her data are reliable?
laiz [17]
If the scientist repeats the experiment over and over and gets the same results. Also if the scientist peer reviews the experiment to make sure there is no bias in his or her results.

A capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 3 volt it delivers 30% store energy to lamp what is the final potential diff
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

3.98V

Explanation:

Given

Pontential difference V as 3v

Energy delivered is 30%,

Recall that Enery E=1/2cv^2 from this E=V^2(since Current C is not provided we can assume a value 2)

So E=V^2

E=3^2=9

At full charge E=9,30%of 9,0.3*9=2.7 energy in capacitor is 9-2.7=6.3

But E=V^2

✓E=V

✓6.3=3.98V
