Calculate the amount of heat needed to raise 1.0 kg of ice at -20 degrees Celsius to steam at 120 degree Celsius
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

801.1 kJ

Explanation:

The ice increases in temperature from -20 °C to 0 °C and then melts at 0 °C.

The heat required to raise the ice to 0 °C is Q₁ = mc₁Δθ₁ where m =  mass of ice = 1 kg, c₁ = specific heat capacity of ice = 2108 J/kg°C and Δθ₁ = temperature change. Q₁ = 1 kg × 2108 J/kg°C × (0 - (-20))°C = 2108 J/kg°C × 20  °C = 4216 J

The latent heat required to melt the ice is Q₂ = mL₁ where L₁ = specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336000 J/kg. Q₁ = 1 kg × 336000 J/kg = 336000 J

The heat required to raise the water to 100 °C is Q₃ = mc₂Δθ₂ where m =  mass of ice = 1 kg, c₂ = specific heat capacity of water = 4187 J/kg°C and Δθ₂ = temperature change. Q₃ = 1 kg × 4187 J/kg°C × (100 - 0)°C = 4187 J/kg°C × 100  °C = 418700 J

The latent heat required to convert the water to steam is Q₄ = mL₂ where L = specific latent heat of vapourisation of water = 2260 J/kg. Q₄ = 1 kg × 2260 J/kg = 2260 J

The heat required to raise the steam to 120 °C is Q₅ = mc₃Δθ₃ where m =  mass of ice = 1 kg, c₃ = specific heat capacity of steam = 1996 J/kg°C and Δθ₃ = temperature change. Q₃ = 1 kg × 1996 J/kg°C × (120 - 100)°C = 1996 J/kg°C × 20  °C = 39920 J

The total amount of heat Q = Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃ + Q₄ + Q₅ = 4216 J + 336000 J

+ 418700 J + 2260 J + 39920 J = 801096 J ≅ 801.1 kJ

When an object is dropped from the top of a tall cliff, your teacher tells you to use -10 m/s2 for the approximate acceleration
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

1. Answer: Option C

Displacement is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude as well as direction. Hence, it can be positive,  zero or negative. In the given question, downward direction is taken as negative. This we have come to know from the downward acceleration -10m/s^2. The negative sign indicates that downward direction is considered negative.

Now, since the object is dropped from the top. The displacement should be negative, because the negative represent a downward direction.

2. Answer: velocity

The truck is travelling at 30 mph to the west. From the unit mph (miles per hour), we know its a magnitude of velocity. West indicates the direction. Hence, the given quantity is a vector -velocity.

It is not speed because speed only indicates the magnitude and not the direction. speed is a scalar quantity.

Which two points on the wave shown in the diagram below are in phase with each other?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

4. B and D

Explanation:

Two points along a transverse wave (such as the one in the figure) are said to be in phase when:

- the vertical position of the two points is the same

- The oscillation of the wave is going in the same way for both points

Basically, we say that two points are in phase when they are separated by a complete cycle (one complete oscillation) of the wave.

For this wave, we see that point B and C have same displacement, but they are not in phase since in B the oscillation is going down while in C is going up.

Instead, B and D are in phase, because they are separated by one complete cycle: both points have same displacement and the oscillation is going in the same way for both of them.
