Answer:

129 J/Kg°C

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of gold, m = 1.2kg

Quantity of heat applied, Q = 3096 J

Temperature, t2 = 40°C

Temperature, t1 = 20°C

Change in temperature, dt = (40-20)°C = 20°C

Using the relation :

Q = mcdt

Where, C = specific heat capacity of gold

3096 = 1.2kg * C * 20°C

3096 J = 24kg°C * C

C = 3096 J / 24 kg°C

C = 129 J/Kg°C

The distance between two subway station is 3 miles if a train travels between the two stations at an average speed of 60 mph how
Andreyy89

Answer:

It takes 3 minutes.

Explanation:

The distance between the two subways is 3 miles.

The train travels at an average speed of 60mph (miles per hour).

\frac{60miles}{1 hour} * \frac{1hour}{60minutes} = \frac{1mile}{1minute}

We have to convert hours to minutes and we do that by cancelling out the hours and replacing it with minutes.

There are 60 minutes in an hour so we use that, 1 hour/60 minutes and multiply it to the existing speed we have.

The result is 1 mile per minute.

We then multiply the miles by 3 since that is how much we want and we get 3 minutes.

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Distance of the object from eye is approx 4.52 m

Explanation:

As we know that the object subtend a small angle on both the eyes which is given as

\theta = 0.995 degree

now we know that the distance between two eyes is given as

d = 7.50 cm

so we have

angle = \frac{arc}{Radius}

so here the radius is same as the distance from eye while arc is the distance between two eyes

so we have

0.95 \frac{\pi}{180} = \frac{7.50}{R}

R = 452 cm
