According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy is neither created nor destroyed. They are just transferred from one system to another. To obey this law, the energy of the substances inside the container must be equal to the substance added to it. The energy is in the form of heat. There can be two types of heat energy: latent heat and sensible heat. Sensible heat is energy added or removed when a substance changes in temperature. Latent heat is the energy added or removed at a constant temperature during a phase change. Since there is no mention of phase change, we assume the heat involved here is sensible heat. The equation for sensible heat is:
H = mCpΔT
where
m is the mass of the substance
Cp is the specific heat of a certain type of material or substance
ΔT is the change in temperature.
So the law of conservation of heat tells that:
Sensible heat of Z + Sensible heat of container = Sensible heat of X
Since we have no idea what these substances are, there is no way of knowing the Cp. We can't proceed with the calculations. So, we can only assume that in the duration of 15 minutes, the whole system achieves equilibrium. Therefore, the equilibrium temperature of the system is equal to 32°C. The answer is C.
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The rent is an<span> example of a monthly fixed cost for a sandwich shop. It is a fixed cost since you are required to pay for it per month. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
It is most likely true that there was a lower concentration of salt in the water than in the cells because when blood cells are put in a hypotonic solution such as pure water, the little to no salt concentration in the water causes the cells to swell and burst. This would occur because the water would try to dilute the solution inside of the blood cell and which would, therefore, cause it to burst. Hope this helps!
Nuclear fusion reactions convert protons into helium; thus, becoming the source of all energy radiated by the sun.
Answer: Option D
<u>Explanation:</u>
Nuclear fusion reaction is one among the two nuclear reactions in which the atoms nucleus interact with each other to produce the products. In nuclear fusion, two smaller atoms react together to form a new atom with bigger size.
So large amount of energy is required to start the nuclear fusion reaction. The fusion reactions mostly occurs in stars. The illumination in Stars even the Sun is due to nuclear fusion reaction occurring with the atoms present in them.
Mostly the energy radiated by Sun is due to the protons-protons chain reaction. In this chain reaction, the protons get converted into helium due to nuclear fusion reaction, thus becoming the source of all energy radiated by the Sun.
