To calibrate the calorimeter electrically, a constant voltage of 3.6 V is applied and a current of 2.6 A flows for a period of 3

50 seconds. If the temperature rises from 20.3°C to 29.1°C, what is the heat capacity of the calorimeter? A) 1.1 x 102 J/°C B) 1.6 x 102 J/°C C) 3.7 x 102 J/°C D) 1.2 x 101 J/°C E) none of the above

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

dusya [7]

Answer:

i think ww

Explanation:

i think we need to calculate net force which is:

net force=m.a

..nf=1000kg×30m/s

therefore net force will be the answer you get whwn you multiply those two
