A coffee-cup calorimeter is used to determine the heat of reaction for the reaction of compound A with compound B. A(aq) + B(aq)
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

\rm 1.64\times 10^{3}\; J.

Explanation:

Assume that his calorimeter is sufficiently effective, such that no heat had escaped to the surroundings. Heat from this solution would be absorbed by either

  • the solution, or
  • the coffee cup.

Temperature change: 33.637 - 23.722 = \rm 9.915\; ^\circ C.

<h3>Heat absorbed by the solution:</h3>

Only the specific heat capacity (per unit mass) of the solution is given. Both the mass of the solution and the temperature change will be required for determining the energy change. Start by finding the mass of the solution.

m = \rho \cdot V = 2\times 16.10 \times 1.00 = \rm 32.10\; g.

Calculate the amount of heat absorbed from the specific heat:

Q = c\cdot m \cdot \Delta T = 4.814\times 32.10 \times 9.915 = \rm 1335.80\; J.

<h3>Heat absorbed by the coffee cup:</h3>

The heat capacity of the coffee cup is given. Only the temperature change will be required for finding the amount of heat absorbed.

Q = C\cdot \Delta T = \rm 30.7\times 9.915 = 304.391\; J.

<h3>Heat that this reaction produces</h3>

Find the sum of the two parts of heat. Round to three significant figures as in the heat capacity of the coffee cup and the density of the solution.

\rm 1335.80+ 304.391 = 1.64\times 10^{3}\; J.

In April 1974, Steve Prefontaine completed a 10 km race in a time of 27 min, 43.6 s. Suppose "Pre" was at the 8.13 km mark at a
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:0.084 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given

Total time=27 min 43.6 s=1663.6 s

total distance=10 km

Initial distance d_1=8.13 km

time taken=25 min =1500 s

initial speed v_1=\frac{8.13\times 1000}{25\times 60}=5.6 m/s

after 8.13 km mark steve started to accelerate

speed after 60 s

v_2=v_1+at

v_2=5.6+a\times 60

distance traveled in 60 sec

d_2=v_1\times 60+\frac{a60^2}{2}

d_2=336+1800 a

time taken in last part of journey

t_3=1663.6-1560=103.6 s

distance traveled in this time

d_3=v_2\times t_3

d_3=\left ( 5.6+a\times 60\right )103.6

and total distance=d_1+d_2+d_3

10000=8.13\times 1000+336+1800 a+\left ( 5.6+a\times 60\right )103.6

1870=336+1800 a+\left ( 5.6+a\times 60\right )103.6

a=0.084 m/s^2
