Substance A would have a delta T (change in temp) rise 1/2 the rise in substance B.
Q=mc x delta T
Q= heat energy in Joules
m= mass of substance heated or cooled
c= specific heat
ΔT is change in temp.
Solve for change in temp=. Q/mc
Specific heat and mass are not inversely proportional to heat energy input.
Putting into real world scenario of using water to heat a building.
Specific heat of water is 1.
It takes 1 btu to raise one pound of water 1 degF. at a base of 60 degF
Acetone specific heat is .51
So it takes half the amount of heat input to get a 100 degree ΔT, as compared to water.
Answer:
1.17 m
Explanation:
From the question,
s₁ = vt₁/2................ Equation 1
Where s₁ = distance of the reflecting object for the first echo, v = speed of the sound in air, t₁ = time to dectect the first echo.
Given: v = 343 m/s, t = 0.0115 s
Substitute into equation 1
s₁ = (343×0.0115)/2
s₁ = 1.97 m.
Similarly,
s₂ = vt₂/2.................. Equation 2
Where s₂ = distance of the reflecting object for the second echo, t₂ = Time taken to detect the second echo
Given: v = 343 m/s, t₂ = 0.0183 s
Substitute into equation 2
s₂ = (343×0.0183)/2
s₂ = 3.14 m
The distance moved by the reflecting object from s₁ to s₂ = s₂-s₁
s₂-s₁ = (3.14-1.97) m = 1.17 m
Solar cells are used to trap sunlight energy (light energy) and convert it to electric energy for domestic and other purposes.
Answer is:
Photosynthesis transforms light energy into chemical energy. Cellular respration releasses the carbon dioxide from food into the air.
hope this helps :)
