Answer:

Solids are easily recognized by their ability to retain a fixed shape and definite volume. Particles making

up a solid are held together in a rigid form. They are not free to move about or slide past one another and

the solid does not have the ability to flow. (Although the particles of a solid do not move position to position, they do have motion in that they are constantly vibrating.

To change the temperature of a solid, heat energy must be added. The amount of heat energy that changes

the temperature of 1.0 g of a solid by 1.0°C is called its specific heat (c). Each substance has its own

specific heat. The specific heat of ice is 2.1 Joules/g°C. In other words we must supply 1.0 gram of ice

with 2.1 Joules of heat energy to raise its temperature by 1.0 °C.

The general equation for calculating heat energy to change the temperature of a solid is:

Heat = Mass x Specific Heat (solid) x Temperature Change

Q = m c DT

10 g 10 g 10 g 10 g 10 g 10 g

Calculate the heat necessary to change 10 g of ice(s) at -20 °C to 10 g of ice(s) at 0°C. (A-B)

Q = mc∆T = (10 g) (2.1 J/g°C) (20°C) = 420 J

If you continue to add heat energy once the temperature of the ice reaches 0°C , the heat absorbed is called

the heat of fusion (Lf). This heat is used to cause a change of phase (from a solid to a liquid). This heat is

increasing the potential energy of the molecules of the solid. No temperature change takes place. Each

substance has its own heat of fusion. The heat of fusion for ice is 340 Joules/g. Exactly the same amount

of heat is given up when 1.0 g of water is changed to ice. This heat is called the heat of crystallization.

The general equation for calculating heat energy to change a solid to a liquid is:

Heat = Mass x Heat of Fusion

Q = m Lf

Calculate the heat necessary to change 10 g of ice(s) at 0°C to 10 g of water(l) at 0°C.(B-C)

Explanation:

Q = mLf = (10 g)( 340 J/g) = 3400 J

How much energy is required to raise the temperature of 50.0 grams of water 10.0 degree C? (Explain yourself answer in joules!)
maria [59]

The amount of energy needed is 2093 J

Explanation:

The amount of energy needed to increase the temperature of a substance by \Delta T is given by the equation

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

\Delta T is the increase in temperature

For the water in this problem, we have

m = 50.0 g = 0.050 kg

C=4186 J/g^{\circ}C (specific heat capacity of water)

\Delta T=10.0^{\circ}C

Therefore, the amount of energy needed is

Q=(0.050)(4186)(10)=2093 J

What is the amount of work done when a force of 10N moves a 20kg mass of 8 meters?
Nataly_w [17]

Yo sup??

we should know that

work done=force*displacement

W=F.s

F=10 N

s=8 m

therefore

W=10*8

=80 N

Hope this helps.

The suspension cable of a 1,000 kg elevator snaps, sending the elevator moving downward through its shaft. The emergency brakes
tester [92]

Answer:

option (E) 1,000,000 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the suspension cable, m = 1,000 kg

Distance, h = 100 m

Now,

from the work energy theorem

Work done by the gravity = Work done by brake

or

mgh = Work done by brake

where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 10 m/s²

or

Work done by brake  = 1000 × 10 × 100

or

Work done by brake = 1,000,000 J

this work done is the release of heat in the brakes

Hence, the correct answer is option (E) 1,000,000 J
