A person pours 330 g of water at 55°C into an 855-g aluminum container with an initial temperature of 10°C. The specific heat of

aluminum is 900 J/(kg・ΕK) and that of water is 4190 J/(kg・ΕK). What is the final temperature of the system, assuming no heat is exchanged with the surroundings?

Answer:

The final temperature of the system is 39⁰C

Explanation:

Applying principle of conservation of heat energy;

Heat loss by a hot body = heat gained by a cold body

m_hc(T_i_h -T) = m_c(T-T_i_c)

where;

Mh is the mass of the hot fluid = 330 g = 0.33 kg

Mc  is the mass of the cold fluid = 855-g = 0.855 kg

Tih is the initial temperature of the hot fluid = 55°C

Tic is the initial temperature of the cold fluid = 10°C

T is the final temperature of the mixture

Substitute the given values and solve for T

m_hc(T_i_h -T) = m_c(T-T_i_c)\\\\0.33*4190(55 -T) = 0.855*900(T-10)\\\\1382.7(55 -T) = 769.5(T-10)\\\\(T-10) = 1.797(55 -T)\\\\T-10 = 98.835 -  1.797T\\\\T+  1.797T = 98.835 + 10\\\\2.797T= 108.835\\\\T = \frac{108.835}{2.797}  = 39^o C

Therefore, the final temperature of the system is 39⁰C

A force of 4 kg weight acts on a body of mass 9.8 kg calculate the acceleration
White raven [17]

Answer:

here given is a weight

then force becomes mg

that is F=Mg

=4*9.8

then by using the formula

F=Ma

a=F/M

=4*9.8/9.8

=4

The discharge of a stream is Choose one: likely to decrease downstream in arid regions and increase downstream in temperate regi
Sauron [17]

Answer:

<em>likely to decrease downstream in arid regions and increase downstream in temperate regions</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Arid regions are is a region with a severe lack of water, usually to the extent that affect the organisms living in the region. Arid regions are characterized by a very low depth of rainfall per year. Temperate region on the other hand experience more distinct seasonal change and wider temperature change. Temperate regions get a fairly large amount of rainfall per year.

In arid regions, the soil is very dry, and the rate of infiltration and percolation is high relative to the amount of rainfall available. The effect is that more water is infiltrated into the soil as you move downstream, leading to a decrease in the discharge of a stream as you move downstream. Most temperate region have soils that are usually saturated in the peak of the rainfall season, leading to a greater stream discharge as you move downstream.

The radius of a sphere is increasing at a rate of 4 mm/s. how fast is the volume increasing when the diameter is 40 mm?
marin [14]

Using <span>r </span> to represent the radius and <span>t </span> for time, you can write the first rate as:

<span><span><span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span>=4<span>mms</span></span> </span>

or

<span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span>=4t</span> </span>

The formula for a solid sphere's volume is:

<span><span>V=V<span>(r)</span>=<span>43</span>π<span>r3</span></span> </span>

When you take the derivative of both sides with respect to time...

<span><span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span>=<span>43</span>π<span>(3<span>r2</span>)</span><span>(<span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span>)</span></span> </span>

...remember the Chain Rule for implicit differentiation. The general format for this is:

<span><span><span><span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>=<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span></span>⋅<span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span><span>dt</span></span></span> </span>with <span><span>V=V<span>(r)</span></span> </span> and <span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span></span> </span>.</span>

So, when you take the derivative of the volume, it is with respect to its variable <span>r </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span></span>)</span> </span>, but we want to do it with respect to <span>t </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dV<span>(r)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>)</span> </span>. Since <span><span>r=r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> and <span><span>r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> is implicitly a function of <span>t </span>, to make the equality work, you have to multiply by the derivative of the function <span><span>r<span>(t)</span></span> </span> with respect to <span>t </span> <span><span>(<span><span>dr<span>(t)</span></span><span>dt</span></span>)</span> </span>as well. That way, you're taking a derivative along a chain of functions, so to speak (<span><span>V→r→t</span> </span>).

Now what you can do is simply plug in what <span>r </span> is (note you were given diameter) and what <span><span><span>dr</span><span>dt</span></span> </span> is, because <span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span> </span> describes the rate of change of the volume over time, of a sphere.

<span><span><span><span><span>dV</span><span>dt</span></span>=<span>43</span>π<span>(3<span><span>(20mm)</span>2</span>)</span><span>(4<span>mms</span>)</span></span> </span><span><span>=6400π<span><span>mm3</span>s</span></span> </span></span>

Since time just increases, and the radius increases as a function of time, and the volume increases as a function of a constant times the radius cubed, the volume increases faster than the radius increases, so we can't just say the two rates are the same.

What is the magnitude of the kinetic frictional force
Effectus [21]

The magnitude of the kinetic friction force, ƒk, on an object is. Where μk is called the kinetic friction coefficient and |FN| is the magnitude of the normal force of the surface on the sliding object. The kinetic friction coefficient is entirely determined by the materials of the sliding surfaces. hope it helps
