To solve this exercise we will use the concept related to heat loss which is mathematically given as

Q = mC_p \Delta T

Where,

m = mass

C_p= Specific Heat

\Delta T = Change in temperature

Replacing with our values we have that

m = 0.1g

C_p = 139J/Kg\cdot K \rightarrow Specific heat of mercury

\Delta T = 8.5\°C-15\°C = -6.5\°C \Rightarrow -6.5K

Replacing

Q = (0.1*10^3)(138)(-6.5)\\Q = -0.09J

Therefore the heat lost by mercury is 0.09J

Calculate the average travel time for each distance, and then use the results to calculate.
Eddi Din [679]

The average time that it takes for the car to travel the first 0.25m is 2.23 s

The average time that it takes for the car to travel the first 0.25 m is given by:

t=\frac{2.24 s+2.21 s+2.23 s}{3}=2.227 s \sim 2.23 s

The average time to travel just between 0.25 m and 0.50 m is 0.90 s

First of all, we need to calculate the time the car takes in each trial to travel between 0.25 m and 0.50 m:

t_1 = 3.16 s - 2.24 s=0.92 s\\t_2 = 3.08 s- 2.21 s=0.87 s\\t_3 =3.15 s- 2.23 s=0.92 s

Then, the average time can be calculated as

t=\frac{0.92 s+0.87 s+0.92 s}{3}=0.90 s

Given the time taken to travel the second 0.25 m section, the velocity would be 0.28 m/s

The velocity of the car while travelling the second 0.25 m section is equal to the distance covered (0.25 m) divided by the average time (0.90 s):

v=\frac{d}{t}=\frac{0.25 m}{0.90 s}=0.28 m/s

During the new moon phase, why is the Moon not visible in the sky?
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The moon gets the light from the sun. When the moon lies between the sun and the earth, only the back portion of the moon gets the light from the sun. So the side facing the sun does not get any light and appears to be dark or does not appear at all.

Hope this helps

Which one of the following statements indicates the result of Kepler's astronomical calculations?
garri49 [273]
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "<span>c. Planets orbit in elliptical patterns; a planet's orbit covers equal areas in equal amounts of time; planets' orbits are shorter or longer depending on their distance from the Sun."</span>

Here are the following choices:
a. Planets orbit in elliptical patterns; the bigger the planet, the more gravitational pull; a planet's gravitational pull is stronger or weaker depending on its distance from the Sun.

b. A planet's orbit covers equal distances in equal amounts of time; the speed of a planet's orbit depends on its distance from the Sun; the bigger the planet, the slower it moves.

c. Planets orbit in elliptical patterns; a planet's orbit covers equal areas in equal amounts of time; planets' orbits are shorter or longer depending on their distance from the Sun.
