How much total heat transfer is necessary to lower the temperature of 0.175 kg of steam from 125.5 °C to −19.5 °C, including the
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

The heat required to change the temperature of  steam from 125.5  °C to 100 °C is:

Q_1 = ms_{steam} (125.5^0C - 100^0C) \\ \\ Q_1 = 0.175 \ kg ( 1520 \ J/kg.K ) (25.5^0 \ C) \\ \\ Q_1 = 6783 \ J

The heat required to change the steam at 100°C to water at 100°C is;

Q_2 = mL_v \\ \\ Q_2 = (0.175 \ kg) (2.25*10^6 \ J/kg ) \\ \\ Q_2 = 393750 \ J

The heat required to change the temperature from 100°C to 0°C is

Q_3 = ms_{water} (100^) \ C) \\ \\ Q_3 = (0.175\ kg)(4186 \ J/kg.K) (100 ^0c ) \\ \\ Q_3 = 73255 \ J

The heat required to change the water at 0°C to ice at 0°C  is:

Q_4 = mL_f \\ \\ Q_4 = (0.175 \ kg)(3.34*10^5 \ J/kg) \\\\ Q_4 = 58450 \ J

The heat required to change the temperature of ice from 0°Cto -19.5°C is:

Q_5 = ms _{ice} (100^0 C) \\ \\ Q_5 = (0.175 \ kg)(2090 \ J/kg.K)(19.5^0C)  \\ \\ Q_5 = 7132.125 \ J

The total heat required to change the steam into ice is:

Q = Q_1 + Q_2 + Q_3 + Q_4 +Q_5 \\ \\Q = (6788+393750+73255+58450+7132.125)J \\ \\ Q = 539325.125 \ J \\ \\ Q = 5.39*10^5 \ J

b)

The time taken to convert steam from 125 °C to 100°C is:

t_1 = \frac{Q_1}{P} = \frac{6738 \ J}{835 \ W}  = 8.12 \ s

The time taken to convert steam at  100°C to water at  100°C is:

t_2 = \frac{Q_2}{P} =\frac{393750}{834} =471.56 \ s

The time taken to convert water to 100° C to 0° C is:

t_3 = \frac{Q_3}{P} =\frac{73255}{834} = 87.73 \ s

The time taken to convert water at 0° to ice at 0° C is :

t_4 = \frac{Q_4}{P} =\frac{58450}{834} = 70.08  \ s

The time taken to convert ice from 0° C to -19.5° C is:

t_5 = \frac{Q_5}{P} =\frac{7132.125}{834} = 8.55  \ s

The human eye can readily detect wavelengths from about 400 nm to 700 nm. part a if white light illuminates a diffraction gratin
Lera25 [3.4K]

We are given that the wavelength ʎ is from 400 nm to 700 nm. The formula for this is:

d sin a =m * ʎ

where,

d = slit separation = 1 mm / 750 lines = 1/750

a = angle

m = 1

ʎ = 400 nm to 700 nm = 0.0004 mm to 0.0007 mm

 

Rewriting the formula in terms of angle a:

a = sin^-1 (m ʎ / d)

 

when ʎ = 0.0004 mm

a = sin^-1 (0.0004 / (1/750))

a = 17.46°

 

when ʎ = 0.0007 mm

a = sin^-1 (0.0007 / (1/750))

a = 31.67°

 

Hence the range of angles is from 17.46° to 31.67<span>°.</span>

A man with a mass of 65.0 kg skis down a frictionless hill that is 5.00 m high. At the bottom of the hill the terrain levels out
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The horizontal distance is 4.823 m

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of man, m = 65.0 kg

Height of the hill, H = 5.00 m

Mass of the backpack, m' = 20.0 kg

Height of ledge, h = 2 m

Now,

To calculate the horizontal distance from the edge of the ledge:

Making use of the principle of conservation of energy both at the top and bottom of the hill (frictionless), the total mechanical energy will remain conserved.

Now,

KE_{initial} + PE_{initial} = KE_{final} + PE_{final}

where

KE = Kinetic energy

PE = Potential energy

Initially, the man starts, form rest thus the velocity at start will be zero and hence the initial Kinetic energy will also be zero.

Also, the initial potential energy will be converted into the kinetic energy thus the final potential energy will be zero.

Therefore,

0 + mgH = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} + 0

2gH = v^{2}

v = \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5} = 9.89\ m/s

where

v = velocity at the hill's bottom

Now,

Making use of the principle of conservation of momentum in order to calculate the velocity after the inclusion, v' of the backpack:

mv = (m + m')v'

65.0\times 9.89 = (65.0 + 20.0)v'

v' = 7.56\ m/s

Now, time taken for the fall:

h = \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 2}{9.8} = 0.638\ s

Now, the horizontal distance is given by:

x = v't = 7.56\times 0.638 = 4.823\ m

Consider three identical metal spheres, A, B, and C. Sphere A carries a charge of +6q. Sphere B caries a charge of-2q. Sphere C
miskamm [114]
<h2>20. How much charge is on sphere B after A and B touch and are separated?</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

\boxed{q_{B}=+2q}

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We'll solve this problem by using the concept of electric potential or simply called potential V, which is <em>the energy per unit charge, </em>so the potential V at any point in an electric field with a test charge q_{0} at that point is:

V=\frac{U}{q_{0}}

The potential V due to a single point charge q is:

V=k\frac{q}{r}

Where k is an electric constant, q is value of point charge and r is  the distance from point charge to  where potential is measured. Since, the three spheres A, B and C are identical, they have the same radius r. Before the sphere A and B touches we have:

V_{A}=k\frac{q_{A}}{r_{A}} \\ \\ V_{B}=k\frac{q_{B}}{r_{A}} \\ \\ But: \\ \\ \ r_{A}=r_{B}=r

When they touches each other the potential is the same, so:

V_{A}= V_{B} \\ \\ k\frac{q_{A}}{r}=k\frac{q_{B}}{r} \\ \\ \boxed{q_{A}=q_{B}}

From the principle of conservation of charge <em>the algebraic sum of all the electric charges in any closed system is constant. </em>So:

q_{A}+q_{B}=q \\ \\ q_{A}=+6q \ and \ q_{B}=-2q \\ \\ So: \\ \\ \boxed{q_{A}+q_{B}=+4q}

Therefore:

(1) \ q_{A}=q_{B} \\ \\ (2) \ q_{A}+q_{B}=+4q \\ \\ (1) \ into \ (2): \\ \\ q_{A}+q_{A}=+4q \therefore 2q_{A}=+4q \therefore \boxed{q_{A}=q_{B}=+2q}

So after A and B touch and are separated the charge on sphere B is:

\boxed{q_{B}=+2q}

<h2>21. How much charge ends up on sphere C?</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

\boxed{q_{C}=+1.5q}

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

First: A and B touches and are separated, so the charges are:

q_{A}=q_{B}=+2q

Second:  C is then touched to sphere A and separated from it.

Third: C is to sphere B and separated from it

So we need to calculate the charge that ends up on sphere C at the third step, so we also need to calculate step second. Therefore, from the second step:

Here q_{A}=+2q and C carries no net charge or q_{C}=0. Also, r_{A}=r_{C}=r

V_{A}=k\frac{q_{A}}{r} \\ \\ V_{C}=k\frac{q_{C}}{r}

Applying the same concept as the previous problem when sphere touches we have:

k\frac{q_{A}}{r} =k\frac{q_{C}}{r} \\ \\ q_{A}=q_{C}

For the principle of conservation of charge:

q_{A}+q_{C}=+2q \\ \\ q_{A}=q_{C}=+q

Finally, from the third step:

Here q_{B}=+2q \ and \ q_{C}=+q. Also, r_{B}=r_{C}=r

V_{B}=k\frac{q_{B}}{r} \\ \\ V_{C}=k\frac{q_{C}}{r}

When sphere touches we have:

k\frac{q_{B}}{r} =k\frac{q_{C}}{r} \\ \\ q_{B}=q_{C}

For the principle of conservation of charge:

q_{B}+q_{C}=+3q \\ \\ q_{A}=q_{C}=+1.5q

So the charge that ends up on sphere C is:

q_{C}=+1.5q

<h2>22. What is the total charge on the three spheres before they are allowed to touch each other.</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

+4q

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Before they are allowed to touch each other we have that:

q_{A}=+6q \\ \\ q_{B}=-2q \\ \\ q_{C}=0

Therefore, for the principle of conservation of charge <em>the algebraic sum of all the electric charges in any closed system is constant, </em>then this can be expressed as:

q_{A}+q_{B}+q_{C}=+6q -2q +0 \\ \\ \therefore q_{A}+q_{B}+q_{C}=+4q

Lastly, the total charge on the three spheres before they are allowed to touch each other is:

+4q

Why is freshly distilled or deionized water used in this standardization?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The amount of carbon dioxide is little in deionized water.

Explanation:

Deionized water is a water with little or no impurities. Impurities are in waters are not able to boil below or above the boiling point of water,and in this case are been retained in the original container.
