Materials A, B, and C are solids that are at their melting temperatures. Material A requires 200 J to melt 4 kg, material B requ

ires 300 J to melt 5 kg, and material C requires 300 J to melt 6 kg. Rank the materials according to their heats of fusion. If multiple materials rank equally, use the same rank for each, then exclude the intermediate ranking (i.e. if objects A, B, and C must be ranked, and A and B must both be ranked first, the ranking would be A:Greatest, B:Greatest, C:Third greatest). If all materials rank equally, rank each as 'Greatest'.

Answer:

B: Greatest, A: Second greatest, C: Second geratest.

Explanation:

We can calculate the heat of fusion of a material (ΔHfus), which is the heat required to melt 1 kg of material, using the following expression.

ΔHfus = Q/m

where,

  • Q: heat provided
  • m: mass

Material A

ΔHfus = 200 J/4 kg = 50 J/kg

Material B

ΔHfus = 300 J/5 kg = 60 J/kg

Material C

ΔHfus = 300 J/6 kg = 50 J/kg

Then, considering the heats of fusion,

B: Greatest, A: Second greatest, C: Second greatest.

( 8c5p79) A certain force gives mass m1 an acceleration of 13.5 m/s2 and mass m2 an acceleration of 3.5 m/s2. What acceleration
Talja [164]

Answer:

4.725 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

We know that from Newton's second law of motion, F=ma hence making acceleration the subject then a=\frac {F}{m}  where a is acceleration, F is force and m is mass

Also making mass the subject of the formula m=\frac {F}{a}

For m1= \frac {F}{13.5} and m2=\frac {F}{3.5} hence F=(m2-m1)a= (\frac {F}{3.5}-\frac {F}{13.5})a=0.2116402116\\\frac {1}{a}=0.2116402116\\a=4.725 m/s^{2}

The density of gasoline is 730 kg/m3 at 0°C. Its average coefficient of volume expansion is 9.60 10-4(°C)−1. Assume 1.00 gal of
kipiarov [429]

Answer: 0.4911 kg

Explanation:

We have the following data:

\rho_{0\°C}= 730 kg/m^{3} is the density of gasoline at 0\°C

\beta=9.60(10)^{-4} \°C^{-1} is the average coefficient of volume expansion

We need to find the extra kilograms of gasoline.

So, firstly we need to transform the volume of gasoline from gallons to m^{3}:

V=8.50 gal \frac{0.00380 m^{3}}{1 gal}=0.0323 m^{3} (1)

Knowing density is given by: \rho=\frac{m}{V}, we can find the mass m_{1} of 8.50 gallons:

m_{1}=\rho_{0\°C}V

m_{1}=(730 kg/m^{3})(0.0323 m^{3})=23.579 kg (2)

Now, we have to calculate the factor f by which the volume of gasoline is increased with the temperature, which is given by:

f=(1+\beta(T_{f}-T_{o})) (3)

Where T_{o}=0\°C is the initial temperature and T_{f}=21.7\°C is the final temperature.

f=(1+9.60(10)^{-4} \°C^{-1}(21.7\°C-0\°C)) (4)

f=1.020832 (5)

With this, we can calculate the density of gasoline at 21.7\°C:

\rho_{21.7\°C}=730 kg/m^{3} f=(730 kg/m^{3})(1.020832)

\rho_{21.7\°C}=745.207 kg/m^{3} (6)

Now we can calculate the mass of gasoline at this temperature:

m_{2}=\rho_{21.7\°C}V (7)

m_{2}=(745.207 kg/m^{3})(0.0323 m^{3}) (8)

m_{2}=24.070 kg (9)

And finally calculate the mass difference \Delta m:

\Delta m=m_{2}-m_{1}=24.070 kg-23.579 kg (10)

\Delta m=0.4911 kg (11) This is the extra mass of gasoline

If my weight on Earth is 140lbs, what is my mass?
SashulF [63]

Answer:

63.57 kg

Explanation:

weight = 140 lbs

Let the mass  is m.

1 lbs = 4.45 N

The weight of an object is defined as the force with which our earth attracts the body towards its centre.

Weight is the product of mass of the body and the acceleration due to gravity of that planet.

W = m x g

On earth surface g = 9.8 m/s^2

Now convert lbs in newton

So, 140 lbs = 140 x 4.45 = 623 N

So, m x 9.8 = 623

m = 63.57 kg

Thus, the mass is 63.57 kg.
