A 21.6−g sample of an alloy at 93.00°C is placed into 50.0 g of water at 22.00°C in an insulated coffee-cup calorimeter with a h

eat capacity of 9.20 J/K. If the final temperature of the system is 31.10°C, what is the specific heat capacity of the alloy?

Answer : The specific heat capacity of the alloy 1.422J/g^oC

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

C_1 = specific heat of alloy = ?

C_2 = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of alloy = 21.6 g

m_2 = mass of water = 50.0 g

T_f = final temperature of system = 31.10^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of alloy = 93.00^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 22.00^oC

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

21.6g\times c_1\times (31.10-93.00)^oC=-50.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (31.10-22.00)^oC

c_1=1.422J/g^oC

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of the alloy 1.422J/g^oC

The Big Bang theory suggests that the universe is constantly expanding and that stars, galaxies and other entities are moving away from each other. If there were a galaxy moving closer to earth then that would contradict the Big Bang theory since the entities should be moving away from earth and from each other.

How do you do this problem?
kvasek [131]

Explanation:

First, find the velocity of the projectile needed to reach a height h when fired straight up.

Given:

Δy = h

v = 0

a = -g

Find: v₀

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0)² = v₀² + 2(-g)(h)

v₀ = √(2gh)

Now find the height reached if the projectile is launched at a 45° angle.

Given:

v₀ = √(2gh) sin 45° = √(2gh) / √2 = √(gh)

v = 0

a = -g

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0)² = √(gh)² + 2(-g)Δy

2gΔy = gh

Δy = h/2
