a 100g ice cube at 0 degrees celsius is placed in 650 grams of water at 25 degrees celsius. When the mixture reaches equillibriu

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The latent heat of fusion of water is 334.88 Joules per gram of water.

Explanation:

Let the latent heat of ice be 'x' J/g

1) Thus heat absorbed by 100 gram of ice to get converted into water equals

$Q_1=100\times x$

2) heat energy required to raise the temperature of water from 0 to 25 degree Celsius equals

$Q_2=100\times 4.186\times 11=4604.6Joules$

Thus total energy needed equals $Q_1+Q_2=100x+4604.6$

3) Heat energy released by the decrease in the temperature of water from 25 to 11 degree Celsius is

$Q_3=650\times 4.186\times (25-11)\\\\Q_{3}=38092.6Joules$

Now by conservation of energy we have

$Q_1+Q_2=Q_3\\\\100x+4604.6=38092.6\\\\\therefore x=\frac{38092.6-4604.6}{100}=334.88J/g$

A baseball is hit at ground level. The ball reaches its maximum height above ground level 3.0 s after being hit. Then 2.5 s afte

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Part a)

$H = 44.1 m$

Part b)

$y = 13.48 m$

Part c)

$d = 8.86 m$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that ball will reach at maximum height at

t = 3 s

now we will have

$t = \frac{v sin\theta}{g}$

now we have

$3 = \frac{vsin\theta}{9.8}$

$v sin\theta = 29.4 m/s$

Now maximum height above ground is given as

$H = \frac{v^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

$H = \frac{29.4^2}{2(9.8)}$

$H = 44.1 m$

Part b)

Height of the fence is given as

$y = (vsin\theta) t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$y = (29.4)(5.5) - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(5.5^2)$

$y = 13.48 m$

Part c)

As we know that its horizontal distance moved by the ball in 5.5 s is given as

$x = v_x t$

$97.5 = v_x (5.5)$

$v_x = 17.72 m/s$

now total time of flight is given as

$T = 3 + 3 = 6 s$

so range is given as

$R = v_x T$

$R = (17.72)(6)$

$R = 106.4 m$

so the distance from the fence is given as

$d = 106.4 - 97.5$

$d = 8.86 m$

A 21.7kg child descends a slide 3.5 m high and reaches the bottom with a speed of 2.2m/s. How much thermal energy due to frictio

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Subtract the kinetic energy at the bottom from the potential energy loss. The remainder becomes frictional heat.

Potential energy loss:

M g H = 21.7*9.81*3.5 = 745.1 J

Kinetic energy at bottom of slide:

= (1/2) M v^2 = 52.5 J

How to represent milligram in kilogram by standard formula?

Anettt [7]

Answer:

0.000001 kg

Explanation:

because 1 kg equal 1,000,000 milligrams

we take $\frac{1}{1,000,000}$ which equals 0.000001 kg

a ferry which runs at 12m/s in still water travels between towns a and b on a river which flows south at 9 m/s. the ferry leavs

Reil [10]

Answer:

= 15 m/s

Explanation:

Considering right side(west) as positive x-axis and south as negative y-axis.

velocity of boat in still water $v_b=12\hat{i}$

velocity of stream $v_s=-9\hat{j}$

now relative velocity of boat w.r.t. stream $v_{b/s}=12\hat{i}+9\hat{j}$

this velocity with which ac distance will be covered.

therefore magnitude of $v_{b/s} =\sqrt{12^2+9^2}$

= 15 m/s
