15 g of lead (specific heat = 0.128 J/g Celsius) at 120 Degrees Celsius is placed on a glacier of ice at 0 degrees Celsius. How

much ice melts? (Lf of ice = 333 J/g)

This can be solve using heat balance. The amount of heat the lead released is equal to the amount of heat the ice absorb.

The heat release by the leas = m1*Cp*deltaT

Where m1 is the mass of lead

Cp is the specific heat of lead

Delta is the change of temperature

Heat absorbed by the ice = m2Lf

Where m2 is the mass of ice

Lf is the latent heat of fusion of ice

M1*Cp*deltaT = m2Lf

(15g) ( 0.128 j/g C) ( 120 -0 C) = m2(333/g)

Solving for m2

A substance with a definite shape and volume is a<br> phase of matter

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

solid

This type of matter is know as solid. Also, it is known that solid substances have definite shape and volume. Thus, we can conclude that a substance with a definite shape and volume is a solid phase of matter.

An electron is released from rest at a distance of 0.470 m from a large insulating sheet of charge that has uniform surface char

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Part a)

$W = 1.58 \times 10^{-20} J$

Part b)

$v = 1.86 \times 10^5 m/s$

Explanation:

Part a)

Electric field due to large sheet is given as

$E = \frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}$

$\sigma = 4.00 \times 10^{-12} C/m^2$

now the electric field is given as

$E = \frac{4.00 \times 10^{-12}}{2(8.85 \times 10^{-12})}$

$E = 0.225 N/C$

Now acceleration of an electron due to this electric field is given as

$a = \frac{eE}{m}$

$a = \frac{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.225)}{9.1 \times 10^{-31}}$

$a = 3.97 \times 10^{10}$

Now work done on the electron due to this electric field

$W = F.d$

$d = 0.470 - 0.03$

$d = 0.44 m$

So work done is given as

$W = (ma)(0.44)$

$W = (9.11 \times 10^{-31})(3.97 \times 10^{10})(0.44)$

$W = 1.58 \times 10^{-20} J$

Part b)

Now we know that work done by all forces = change in kinetic energy of the electron

so we will have

$W = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - 0$

$1.58 \times 10^{-20} = \frac{1}{2}(9.1\times 10^{-31})v^2$

$v = 1.86 \times 10^5 m/s$

A wire of length 6cm makes an angle of 20° with a 3 mT

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Approximately $7.3 \times 10^{-3}\; \rm A$ (approximately $7.3\; \rm mA$ ) assuming that the magnetic field and the wire are both horizontal.

Explanation:

Let $\theta$ denote the angle between the wire and the magnetic field.

Let $B$ denote the magnitude of the magnetic field.

Let $l$ denote the length of the wire.

Let $I$ denote the current in this wire.

The magnetic force on the wire would be:

$F = B \cdot l \cdot I \cdot \sin(\theta)$ .

Because of the $\sin(\theta)$ term, the magnetic force on the wire is maximized when the wire is perpendicular to the magnetic field (such that the angle between them is $90^\circ$ .)

In this question:

$\theta = 20^\circ$ (or, equivalently, $(\pi / 9)$ radians, if the calculator is in radian mode.)
$B = 3\; \rm mT = 3 \times 10^{-3}\; \rm T$ .
$l = 6\; \rm cm = 6 \times 10^{-2}\;\rm m$ .
$F = 1.5\times 10^{-4}\; \rm N$ .

Rearrange the equation $F = l \cdot I \cdot \sin(\theta)$ to find an expression for $I$ , the current in this wire.

$\begin{aligned} I &= \frac{F}{l \cdot \sin(\theta)} \\ &= \frac{3\times 10^{-3}\; \rm T}{6 \times 10^{-2}\; \rm m \times \sin \left(20^{\circ}\right)} \\ &\approx 7.3 \times 10^{-3}\; \rm A = 7.3 \; \rm mA\end{aligned}$ .
