Answer:

10 °C

Explanation:

Applying

q = cm(t₂-t₁)............... Equation 2

Where q = heat energy, c = specific heat of ethanol, m = mass of ethanol, t₁ = initial temperature, t₂ = Final temperature.

Given: c = 2.44 J/g.°C,  m = 300 g, q = 14640 J, t₂ = 30°C

Substitute into equation 2 and solve for t₁

14640 = 2.44×300(30-t₁)

14640 = 732(30-t₁)

732(30-t₁) = 14640

(30-t₁)  = 14640/732

(30-t₁)  = 20

t₁ = 30-20

t₁ = 10 °C

A parallel beam of light in air makes an angle of 43.5 ∘ with the surface of a glass plate having a refractive index of 1.68. Yo
aniked [119]

Answer:

a) 46.5º  b) 64.4º

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will use the laws of geometric optics

a) For this part we will use the law of reflection that states that the reflected and incident angle are equal

     θ = 43.5º

This angle measured from the surface is

     θ_r = 90 -43.5

     θ_s = 46.5º

b) In this part the law of refraction must be used

     n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂. Sin θ₂

     sin θ₂ = n₁ / n₂ sin θ₁

The index of air refraction is n₁ = 1

The angle is this equation is measured between the vertical line called normal, if the angles are measured with respect to the surface

     θ_s = 90 - θ

     θ_s = 90- 43.5

     θ_s = 46.5º

     sin θ₂ = 1 / 1.68  sin 46.5

     sin θ₂ = 0.4318

     θ₂ = 25.6º

The angle with respect to the surface is

     θ₂_s = 90 - 25.6

     θ₂_s = 64.4º

measured in the fourth quadrant

An object has 90000 J of kinetic energy and is moving at 12 m/s. what is the objects mass?
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

1250kg

Explanation:

we can solve this using the formula for the Kinetic Energy

Kinetic.Energy=\frac{1}{2}*mass*velocity^{2}\\mass=\frac{2*Kinetic.Energy}{velocity^{2}}\\mass=\frac{2*90000}{12^{2}}\\\\mass=1250kg
