Calculate the amount of heat transferred when 710 grams of water warms from an initial temperature of 4.0 ºC to a final temperat

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Q = 62383.44 Joules

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of water, m = 710 gm

Initial temperature of water, $T_i=4^{\circ} C$

Final temperature of water, $T_f=25^{\circ} C$

The specific heat capacity of liquid water is, $c=4.184\ J/g\ ^oC$

Heat transferred is given by :

$Q=mc(T_f-T_i)$

$Q=710\times 4.184\times (25-4)$

Q = 62383.44 Joules

So, the amount of heat transferred is 62383.44 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

Consider a roller coaster begins 15m above the ground. If the cart has a mass of 75kg, what is the velocity of the cart halfway

SashulF [63]

Answer:

v = 12.12 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the cart, m = 75 kg

The roller coaster begins 15 m above the ground.

We need to find the velocity of the cart halfway to the ground. Let the velocity be v. Using the conservation of energy at this position, h = 15/2 = 7.5 m

$mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 7.5} \\\\v=12.12\ m/s$

So, the velocity of the cart is 12.12 m/s.

A football wide receiver rushes 16 m straight down the playing field in 2.9 s (in the positive direction). He is then hit and pu

Bumek [7]

Answer:

a) v1 = 5.52m/s

b) v2 = -1.52m/s

c) v3 = 4.62m/s

d) vt = 3.85m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of the football wide receiver is his displacement per unit time.

Velocity v = (displacement d)/time t

v = d/t .....1

For each of the cases, equation 1 would be used to calculate the velocity.

a) v1 = d1/t1

d1= 16m

t1 = 2.9s

v1 = 16m/2.9s

v1 = 5.52m/s

b) v2 = d2/t2

d2 = -2.5m

t2 = 1.65s

v2 = -2.5/1.65

v2 = -1.52m/s

c) v3 = d3/t3

d3 = 24m

t3 = 5.2s

v3 = 24/5.2

v3 = 4.62m/s

d) vt = dt/tt

dt = 16m - 2.5m + 24m = 37.5m

tt = 2.9 + 1.65 + 5.2 = 9.75s

vt = 37.5/9.75

vt = 3.85m/s
