Answer:
c. is more than that of the fluid.
Explanation:
This problem is based on the conservation of energy and the concept of thermal equilibrium

m= mass
s= specific heat
\DeltaT=change in temperature
let s1= specific heat of solid and s2= specific heat of liquid
then
Heat lost by solid= 
Heat gained by fluid=
Now heat gained = heat lost
therefore,
1000 S_2=800 S_1
S_1=1.25 S_2
so the specific heat of solid is more than that of the fluid.
Answer:
Density of iron is higher than the density of oxygen because iron is solid and the particles in it are very compact but oxygen is not dense as it is gas and particles in it are loosely packed.
Answer:
<h3>62.5N</h3>
Explanation:
The pressure at one end of the piston is equal to the pressure on the second piston.
Pressure = Force/Area
F1/A1 = F2/A2
Given
F1 = 250N
A1 = 2.0m²
A2 = 0.5m²
F2 = ?
Substituting the given values in the formula;
250/2 = F2/0.5
cross multiply
250*0.5 = 2F2
125 = 2F2
F2 = 125/2
F2 = 62.5N
Hence the force needed to lift this piston if the area of the second piston is 0.5 m^2 is 62.5N
The Answer is C. The outer shell electrons are the electrons which are involved with chemical reactions and bonding. All elements in the same group have different number of total electrons but ALL have the same number of outer shell electrons. This is why they exhibit similar chemical properties.
In fact, entropy of an isolated system never decreases (2nd law of thermodynamics), unless some external energy is provided in order to "restore" order in the system and decrease its entropy.
(note that when external energy is added to the system, it is no longer "isolated").
*This is only true if the question is referring to a certain system within the universe. If we are considering the universe itself as the system, then this option is no longer correct, because no external energy can be provided to the universe, and since the universe is an isolated system, its entropy can never decrease. If we are considering the universe itself as the system, none of the options is true.
