Answer:
Mass has total mechanical energy, which is the sum of kinetic and potential energy. as the mass is dropping, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy so mechanical energy is preserved If there is no friction. If there is friction, some of the mechanical energy is lost as heat energy so it changes.
Explanation:
Answer:

Explanation:
First of all, we need to calculate the total energy supplied to the calorimeter.
We know that:
V = 3.6 V is the voltage applied
I = 2.6 A is the current
So, the power delivered is

Then, this power is delivered for a time of
t = 350 s
Therefore, the energy supplied is

Finally, the change in temperature of an object is related to the energy supplied by

where in this problem:
E = 3276 J is the energy supplied
C is the heat capacity of the object
is the change in temperature
Solving for C, we find:

It makes no sense how you typed this problem out.
