If 190 grams of water is cooled from 42.7°C to 21.2° C how much energy was lost by the water?

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Energy lost by the water is 17.1 x 10³ J .

Explanation:

Specific heat is defined as the amount of energy per unit mass needed to raise the temperature of the substance by a one degree Celsius.

Heat energy gain or loss by any substance is given by :

Q = m x C x ( T₁ - T₂ ) .....(1)

Here m is the mass of the substance, C is specific heat of the substance and T₁ and T₂ are the initial and final temperature of the substance.

According to the problem,

Mass of water, m = 190 gm

Specific heat of water, C = 4.186 J gm⁻¹ ⁰C⁻¹

Initial temperature, T₁ = 42.7⁰ C

Final temperature, T₂ = 21.2⁰ C

Substitute these values in equation (1).

Heat energy loss by water = 190 x 4.186 x ( 21.2 - 42.7 )

= -17.1 x 10³ J

In the above value, negative sign denotes the loss in energy.

Bob wanted to investigate the effects of plant fertilizer. He bought three identical plants and gave plant 1 fertilizer every mo

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

TIME he applied the fertilizer to each plant

Explanation:

Independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is subject to change or manipulation by the experimenter. In this experiment, Bob wanted to investigate the effects of plant fertilizer. Bob sets up the experiment by applying the fertilizer to each plant at DIFFERENT TIMES i.e. plant 1-every morning, plant 2-once a week, plant 3-never.

Based on this, it is obvious that the independent or manipulated variable is the TIME at which he applied the fertilizer. On the other hand, the dependent or measured variable is the height of the plants.

A mass M is attached to an ideal massless spring. When this system is set in motion with amplitude A, it has a period T. What is

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

<em>The period of the motion will still be equal to T.</em>

Explanation:

for a system with mass = M

attached to a massless spring.

If the system is set in motion with an amplitude (distance from equilibrium position) A

and has period T

The equation for the period T is given as

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{k} }$

where k is the spring constant

If the amplitude is doubled, the distance from equilibrium position to the displacement is doubled.

Increasing the amplitude also increases the restoring force. An increase in the restoring force means the mass is now accelerated to cover more distance in the same period, so the restoring force cancels the effect of the increase in amplitude. Hence, <em>increasing the amplitude has no effect on the period of the mass and spring system.</em>
