How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of 50.0 g of water by 25.0°C
love history [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to be able to solve this problem, you will need to know the value of water's specific heat, which is listed as

c

=

4.18

J

g

∘

C

Now, let's assume that you don't know the equation that allows you to plug in your values and find how much heat would be needed to heat that much water by that many degrees Celsius.

Take a look at the specific heat of water. As you know, a substance's specific heat tells you how much heat is needed in order to increase the temperature of

1 g

of that substance by

1

∘

C

.

In water's case, you need to provide

4.18 J

of heat per gram of water to increase its temperature by

1

∘

C

.

What if you wanted to increase the temperature of

1 g

of water by

2

∘

C

? You'd need to provide it with

This means that in order to increase the temperature of

This will account for increasing the temperature of the first gram of the sample by

, of the the second gram by

n

, of the third gram by

n

C

, and so on until you reach

m

And there you have it. The equation that describes all this will thus be

, where

q

- heat absorbed

m

c

- the specific heat of the substance

Δ

In your case, you will have

An object dropped from rest from the top of a tall building on planet x falls a distance d(t)18 left parenthesis t right parenth
melamori03 [73]

displacement is given by equation

d = 18t^2

now at t = 5 s the position is

d_1 = 18 *5^2 = 450 m

similarly position at t = 9 s

d_2 = 18*9^2 = 1458 m

so the displacement of object in given interval of time will be

d = 1458 - 450 = 1008 m

time interval

\delta t = 9 - 5 = 4 s

now the average velocity will be given as

v = \frac{\delta x}{\delta t}

v = \frac{1008}{4} = 252 m/s

so its average speed is 252 m/s
