Why does matter increase in volume when it heats up?

1 answer:

8 0

Answer:All three states of matter (solid, liquid and gas) expand when heated. ... Heat causes the molecules to move faster, (heat energy is converted to kinetic energy ) which means that the volume of a gas increases more than the volume of a solid or liquid.

How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of an empty 2.0 x 101 kg vat made of

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Q = 7272 Kilojoules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 2.0*101kg = 202kg

Initial temperature, T1 = 10°C

Final temperature, T2 = 90°C

We know that the specific heat capacity of iron = 450J/kg°C

*To find the quantity of heat*

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

$Q = mcdt$

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity of water.

dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 90 - 10

dt = 80°C

Substituting the values into the equation, we have;

$Q = 202*450*80$

Q = 7272KJ or 7272000 Joules.

yarga [219]

Answer:

67.31 Hz, 201.92 Hz, 336.54 Hz

Explanation:

Resonance also known as standing wave occur when a uniform tube is closed at one end and open at the other end.

For a resonance wave in a tube with length b, wavelength λ of resonance wave is 4b because a quarter wave is formed in the tube, that is,

λ = 4b.

When the speed of sound is c, the frequency of sound, f, is

f = c /λ,

and therefore,

f = c / ( 4b ).

From the question,

When c = 350 m/s and b = 1.3 m,

using the formula

fn = c / ( 4b ) × n (n = 1, 3, 5, ...).

The first three resonant frequencies are;

First resonance frequency is

f = 350 / (4*1.3) * 1 = 67.31 Hz

Second resonance frequency is

f = 350 / (4*1.3) * 3 = 201.92 Hz

Third resonance frequency is

f = 350 / (4*1.3) * 5 = 336.54 Hz

Two charges, X and Y, are placed along the x-axis. Charge X is +18 nC and is placed at x = 0. Charge Y is placed at a location o

Helen [10]

Answer:

Charge Z can be placed at x = -2.7 m or at x = 0.27 m.

Explanation:

The Coulomb force between two charges, $Q_1$ and $Q_2$ , separated by a distance, $d$ , is given

$F = k\dfrac{Q_1Q_2}{r^2}$

k is a constant.

For the charge Z to be at equilibrium, the force exerted on it by charge X must be equal and opposite to the force exerted on it by charge Y.

It is to be placed along the x-axis. Hence, it is on the same line as charges X and Y.

Let the charge on Z be Q. It is positive.

Let the distance from charge X be x m. Then the distance from charge Y will be (0.60 - x) m.

Force due to charge X

$F_X = k\dfrac{18Q}{x^2}$

Force due to charge Y

$F_Y = k\dfrac{-27Q}{(0.60-x)^2}$

Since both forces are equal and opposite,

$F_X = -F_Y$

$k\dfrac{18Q}{x^2} = -k\dfrac{-27Q}{(0.60-x)^2}$

$\dfrac{2}{x^2} = \dfrac{3}{(0.60-x)^2}$

$2(0.60-x)^2 = 3x^2$

$2(0.36-1.20x+x^2) = 3x^2$

$0.72-2.40x+2x^2 = 3x^2$

$x^2+2.40x-0.72 = 0$

Applying the quadratic formula,

$x = \dfrac{-2.40\pm\sqrt{2.40^2 - (4)(1)(-0.72)}}{2} = \dfrac{-2.40\pm\sqrt{8.64}}{2}$

$x = -2.7$ or $x = 0.27$

Charge Z can be placed at x = -2.7 m or at x = 0.27 m
