7. A block of copper of unknown mass has an initial temperature of 65.4oC. The copper is immersed in a beaker containing 95.7g o

f water at 22.7oC. When the two substances reach thermal equilibrium, the final temperature is 24.2oC. What is the mass of the copper block?

Answer:

37.34372 kg

Explanation:

m = Mass

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature

1 denotes water

2 denotes copper

c = Heat capacity

Heat is given by

$Q=mc\Delta T$

In this case the heat transfer will be equal

$m_1c_1\Delta T_1=m_2c_2\Delta T_2\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{m_1c_1\Delta T_1}{c_2\Delta T_2}\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{95.7\times 4.18(24.2-22.7)}{0.39(65.4-24.2)}\\\Rightarrow m_2=37.34372\ kg$

Mass of copper block is 37.34372 kg

You are watching an archery tournament when you start wondering how fast an arrow is shot from the bow. Remembering your physics

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:112.82 m/s

Explanation:

Given

range of arrow=68 m

$Angle=3^{\circ}$

as the arrow travels it acquire a vertical velocity $v_y$

$v_y=u+at$

$v_y=0+9.81\times t$ -------1

Range is given by

R=ut

where u=initial velocity

$68=u\times t$

$t=\frac{68}{u}$

substitute the value of t in eqn 1

$v_y=9.81\times \frac{68}{u}$

$v_y\times u=9.81\times 68=667.08$ --------2

and $tan(3)=\frac{v_y}{u}$

$v_y=utan(3)=0.0524u$

substitute it in 2

$0.0524 u^2=667.08$

$u^2=12,728.644$

u=112.82 m/s

A mass-spring system has k = 56.8 N/m and m = 0.46 kg.

andriy [413]

Answer:

A. $\omega=11.1121\ rad.s^{-1}$

B. $f=1.7685\ Hz$

C. $T=0.5654\ s$

Explanation:

Given:

spring constant, $k=56.8\ N.m^{-1}$

mass attached, $m=0.46\ kg$

A)

for a spring-mass system the frequency is given as:

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }$

$\omega=\sqrt{\frac{56.8}{0.46}}$

$\omega=11.1121\ rad.s^{-1}$

B)

frequency is given as:

$f=\frac{\omega}{2\pi}$

$f=\frac{11.1121}{2\pi}$

$f=1.7685\ Hz$

C)

Time period of a simple harmonic motion is given as:

$T=\frac{1}{f}$

$T=0.5654\ s$

A car with a mass of 1100kg is moving in a circular curve at a uniform velocity of 15m/s

Dmitrij [34]

Centripetal force = (mv^2)/r
so r = (mv^2)/ force = 246500 / 1100 = 224 m
