Answer:

about 30.714degC

Explanation:

Assuming

specific heat of water at  4200 J/kg * K

specific heat of aluminum 900 J/kg * K

(actual values to higher precision differ, and also change slightly with temperature).

To raise the aluminum's temp by 1K we need 900J * (210g / 1kg) = 189J

189J given by the water decreases its temp by 1K * (189J / 4200J) * (1kg / 550g) = 0.0(81)K.

So every K the temp of aluminum rises, 0.0(81)K falls the temp of the water.

At a difference of (32degC - 15degC) = 17K, we infer the temp will balance out after 17K / (1K + 0.0(81)K) "steps", so about 15.714.

The final temperature will be around 30.714degC

nikitadnepr [17]
By applying Newton's second law of motion;

ma = mg - T

Where,
m = mass; a = downward accelerations (+ve value) or upward acceleration (-ve value); g = gravitational acceleration; T = tension.

For the current case, the velocity is constant therefore,
a = 0

Then,
0 = mg - T
T = mg = 115*9.81 = 1128.15 N

Tension in the cable is 1128.15 N.

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

1. enhance learning and memory ability in nonhuman organisms.

Explanation:

Genetic engineering can be defined as the process by which scientists modify the genome of an organism using new molecular tools. The resulting organism after the modification is known as Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO).

To create this genetically modified organisms requires recombinant DNA.

Advances in genetic engineering show that it is possible to enhance learning and memory ability in nonhuman organisms through biotechnology.
