Given :

Mass of water, m = 2 grams.

The temperature of water drops from 31 °C to 29 °C .

The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/(g • °C).

To Find :

Amount of heat lost in this process.

Solution :

We know, heat lost is given by :

Heat\ lost,H = ms( T_f - T_i)\\\\H = 2\times 4.184 \times ( 31 - 29 )\ J\\\\H = 16.736\ J

Therefore, amount of heat lost in this process is 16.736 J.

An electric toy with a resistance of 2.50 Ω is operated by a 3.00-V battery. (a) What current does the toy draw? (b) Assuming th
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

a) The current is i = 1.2 A

b) The charge is Q = 17280 C

c) The energy is E = 43200 J

Explanation:

a) The current is given by the ohm's law wich is:

i = V/R = 3/2.5 = 1.2 A

b) Since the charge is steady we can use the following equation to find the charge amount in that time:

i = Q/t

Q = t*i

Where t is in seconds, so we have 4h * 3600 = 14400 s

Q = 1.2*14400 = 17280 C

c)  The energy is the power delivered to the toy multiplied by the time:

P = 1.2*2.5 = 3 W

E = P*t = 3*14400 = 43200 J

Describe the water cycle process starting from an afternoon thunderstorm. There are many different variations that could happen.
spin [16.1K]

Explanation:

The water cycle basically involves five steps:

  • evaporation and transpiration ⇄
  • condensation, ⇄
  • precipitation, ⇄
  • runoff, ⇄
  • infiltration ⇄

So when a <u>thunderstorm </u>occurs it <em>helps in completing the precipitation process </em>by enabling the release of water vapor stored up in the atmosphere to fall on the ground as rain.

After this, the water <em>runoffs </em><em>to the surface of the ground, on plants, into rocks, rivers, and lakes.</em>

Next, the <em>Infiltration process</em> enables the water on the ground surface to enter the soil some of which becomes groundwater.

The cycle begins again as the<em> </em><em>evaporation and transpiration</em> <em>process </em>begins, where the groundwater as a result of heat from the sun is taken back into the atmosphere, while water in plants by means of transpiration goes back <em>into the atmosphere</em>.

It then <em>condenses </em>and falls back as precipitation again.

Imagine two billiard balls on a pool table. Ball A has a mass of 2 kilograms and ball B has a mass of 3 kilograms. The initial v
ratelena [41]
1. The balls move to the opposite direction but the same speed. This represents Newton's third law of motion.
2. The total momentum before and after the collision stays constant or is conserved.
3. If the masses were the same, the velocities of both balls after the collision would exchange.
4 and 5. Use momentum balance to solve for the final velocities.
