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

A baseball leaves a bat with a horizontal velocity of 20 m/s. In a time of 0.25 s, How far will it have traveled horizontally?
Maurinko [17]

Distance traveled by the ball is given by

distance = speed \times time

here we know that

speed = 20 m/s

times = 0.25 s

now we have

distance = 20 \times 0.25

distance = 5 m

so ball will travel 5 m distance in the given interval of time

12. An organ pipe that is 1.75 m long and open at both ends produces sound of
podryga [215]

Answer:

354 m/s

Explanation:

For the second overtune (Third harmonic) of an open pipe,

λ = 2L/3................................ Equation 1

Where L = Length of the open pipe, λ = Wave length.

Given: L = 1.75 m.

Substitute into equation 1

λ = 2(1.75)/3

λ = 1.17 m.

From the question,

V = λf.......................... Equation 2

V = speed of sound in the room, f = frequency

Given: f = 303 Hz.

Substitute into equation 2

V = 1.17(303)

V = 353.5

V ≈ 354 m/s

Hence the right answer is 354 m/s

Can you help me with my homework please ? Science
geniusboy [140]
The formula for average​ speed is S=D/T

1. S=72m/37s

Divide

S= 1.94

Kira's average speed is 1.94m/s.

2. S=7.5km / 1.5h

S=5

Your average speed is 5km/h

3. S=1260km/3.5h

S=360

The airplanes average speed is 360km/h
