M = mass of aluminium = 1.11 kg
= specific heat of aluminium = 900
= initial temperature of aluminium = 78.3 c
m = mass of water = 0.210 kg
= specific heat of water = 4186
= initial temperature of water = 15 c
T = final equilibrium temperature = ?
using conservation of heat
Heat lost by aluminium = heat gained by water
M (
- T) = m
(T -
)
(1.11) (900) (78.3 - T) = (0.210) (4186) (T - 15)
T = 48.7 c
Given data:
* The mass of the ball is 2 kg.
* The gravitational field strength at the surface of planet X is 5 N/kg.
Solution:
The weight of the ball on the planet X is,
where m is the mass of ball, a is the gravitational field strength,
Substituting the known values,
Thus, the weight of the ball on the surface of planet X is 10 N.
Answer:
The final temperature of both objects is 400 K
Explanation:
The quantity of heat transferred per unit mass is given by;
Q = cΔT
where;
c is the specific heat capacity
ΔT is the change in temperature
The heat transferred by the object A per unit mass is given by;
Q(A) = caΔT
where;
ca is the specific heat capacity of object A
The heat transferred by the object B per unit mass is given by;
Q(B) = cbΔT
where;
cb is the specific heat capacity of object B
The heat lost by object B is equal to heat gained by object A
Q(A) = -Q(B)
But heat capacity of object B is twice that of object A
The final temperature of the two objects is given by
But heat capacity of object B is twice that of object A
Therefore, the final temperature of both objects is 400 K.
Answer: 2. Solution A attains a higher temperature.
Explanation: Specific heat simply means, that amount of heat which is when supplied to a unit mass of a substance will raise its temperature by 1°C.
In the given situation we have equal masses of two solutions A & B, out of which A has lower specific heat which means that a unit mass of solution A requires lesser energy to raise its temperature by 1°C than the solution B.
Since, the masses of both the solutions are same and equal heat is supplied to both, the proportional condition will follow.
<em>We have a formula for such condition,</em>
.....................................(1)
where:
<u>Proving mathematically:</u>
<em>According to the given conditions</em>
Now, putting the above values
Which proves that solution A attains a higher temperature than solution B.
