The mass of the water is 14.9 g

Explanation:

When a certain amount of a susbtance is heated, the temperature of the substance increases according to the equation

$Q=mC_s \Delta T$

where

Q is the amount of energy supplied to the substance

m is the mass of the substance

$C_s$ is its specific heat capacity

$\Delta T$ is the change in temperature

In this problem, we have:

Q = 2500 J of energy supplied to the water

$C_s = 4.186 J/gC$ is the specific heat capacity of water

$\Delta T=60 C - 20 C = 40^{\circ}C$ is the change in temperature of the water

Therefore we can solve for m to find the mass of the water:

$m=\frac{Q}{C_s \Delta T}=\frac{2500}{(4.186)(40)}=14.9 g$

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Δh_air=714m

Explanation:

Given data

$P_{1}=753mmHg\\P_{2}=690mmHg\\ p_{air}=1.2kg/m^{3}\\ g=9.8m/s^{2}$

Solution

ΔP=P₁-P₂

=(ΔhHg)×pHg×g

=(Δh_air)× p_air ×g

Then

Δh_air=(pHg+ΔhHg)÷p_air

$=\frac{13600*(753-690)*10^{-3} }{1.2}\\ =714m$

Δh_air=714m

12. A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates vertically. It accelerates uniformly until it

vodomira [7]

Answer:

We kindly invite you to read carefully the explanation and check the image attached below.

Explanation:

According to this problem, the rocket is accelerated uniformly due to thrust during 30 seconds and after that is decelerated due to gravity. The velocity as function of initial velocity, acceleration and time is:

$v_{f} = v_{o}+a\cdot (t-t_{o})$ (1)

Where:

$v_{o}$ - Initial velocity, measured in meters per second.

$v_{f}$ - Final velocity, measured in meters per second.

$a$ - Acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$t_{o}$ - Initial time, measured in seconds.

$t$ - Final time, measured in seconds.

Now we obtain the kinematic equations for thrust and free fall stages:

Thrust ( $v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $a = 30\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , $t_{o} = 0\,s$ , $0\,s\le t< 30\,s$ )

$v = 30\cdot t$ (2)

Free fall ( $v_{o} = 900\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $a = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $t_{o} = 30\,s$ , $30\,s \le t \le 120\,s$ )

$v = 900-9.81\cdot (t-30)$ (3)

Now we created the graph speed-time, which can be seen below.
