The complete sentence is:
A calorimeter directly measures changes in temperature in order to calculate specific heat.
In fact, the amount of energy acquired/released by a substance is directly proportional to its change in temperature due to the equation
where Q is the amount of energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cs is the specific heat of the substance and 
is the change in temperature. Therefore, by knowing Q, m and by measuring the change in temperature, it is possible to calculate Cs, the specific heat capacity of the substance.
Answer:
(a) 37.5 kg
(b) 4
Explanation:
Force, F = 150 N
kinetic friction coefficient = 0.15
(a) acceleration, a = 2.53 m/s^2
According to the newton's second law
Net force = mass x acceleration
F - friction force = m a
150 - 0.15 x m g = m a
150 = m (2.53 + 0.15 x 9.8)
m = 37.5 kg
(b) As the block moves with the constant speed so the applied force becomes the friction force.
Magma from the mantle rises and flows out through a vent onto Earth's surface as lava. This molten material, sometimes along with ash, cinders, and rock, builds up a mountain around the vent. The vent and its mountain together are called a sediment.

Solving for vf gives you PiVi/Pf. Now plug in 101kPa*10L/43kPa = 23.48L. Using significant figures i would round to 23.5L
Answer:
51 Ω.
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the equivalent resistance of R₁ and R₃. This can be obtained as follow:
Resistor 1 (R₁) = 40 Ω
Resistor 3 (R₃) = 70.8 Ω
Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) =?
Since the two resistors are in parallel connection, their equivalent can be obtained as follow:
R₁ₙ₃ = R₁ × R₃ / R₁ + R₃
R₁ₙ₃ = 40 × 70.8 / 40 + 70.8
R₁ₙ₃ = 2832 / 110.8
R₁ₙ₃ = 25.6 Ω
Finally, we shall determine the equivalent resistance of the group. This can be obtained as follow:
Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) = 25.6 Ω
Resistor 2 (R₂) = 25.4 Ω
Equivalent Resistance (Rₑq) =?
Rₑq = R₁ₙ₃ + R₂ (series connection)
Rₑq = 25.6 + 25.4
Rₑq = 51 Ω
Therefore, the equivalent resistance of the group is 51 Ω.
