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

<h3>What is Quadratic equation ?</h3>

A quadratic equation as an equation of degree 2, meaning that the highest exponent of this function is 2. The standard form of a quadratic equation is y = a $x^{2}$ + bx + c, where a, b, and c are numbers and a cannot be 0

P(A) = 0.006 $a^{2}$ - 0.02a + 120

123 = 0.006- 0.02a + 120

0=0.006 $a^{2}$ - 0.02a - 3

you can use the quadratic equation formula to solve for the man's age.

A = (-b ± ( $\sqrt{b^{2} - 4*a*c}$ ) ) / (2a)

A = (0.02 ± $\sqrt{(-0.02)^{2} - 4*0.006*(-3)}$ / (2*0.006)

A = (0.02 ± $\sqrt{0.0076}$ ) / 0.012

A = 9 , -5.67

Age of the man will be 9 years

A sailboat moves north for a distance of 15.00 km when blown by a wind from the exact southeast with a force of 3.00 x 10^-4 N.

Zolol [24]

These are actually 4 different exercises:

ex 1) The sailboat moves north, while the wind moves from southeast. This means the angle between the direction of the boat and the wind is $45^{\circ}$ .

Calling F the force of the wind, and $d=15~km=15000~m$ the distance covered by the boat, the work done by the wind is:
$W=Fdcos{\theta}=3\cdot10^{-4}~N \cdot 15000~m\cdot cos 45^{\circ}=3.18~J$

The total time of the motion is $t=1~h=3600~s$ and therefore the power of the wind is
$P= \frac{W}{t} = \frac{3.18~J}{3600~s}=8.8\cdot10^{-4}~W$

ex 2) First of all, let's calculate the length of the ramp. Given the two sizes 2.00 m and 6.00 m, we have
$d= \sqrt{(2~m)^2+(6~m)^2}= 6.32~m$

The mechanical advantage (MA) of the ramp is the ratio between the output load (W) and the input force (F). The output load is the weight of the load, mg, therefore:
$MA= \frac{W}{F}= \frac{mg}{F}= \frac{195~Kg\cdot 9.81~m/s^2}{750~N}=2.55$

Finally, the efficiency $\epsilon$ of the ramp is the ratio between the output energy and the work done. The output energy is simply the potential energy (Ep) of the load, which is mgh, where h is the height of the ramp. The work done W is the product between the input force, F, and the displacement of the load, which is the length of the ramp: Fd. Therefore:
$\epsilon = \frac{E_p}{W}= \frac{mgh}{Fd}= \frac{195~Kg \cdot 9.81~m/s^2\cdot 2~m}{750~N\cdot6.32~m}=0.81$

ex 3) the graph is missing

ex 4) We know that the power is the ratio between the work done W and the time t:
$P= \frac{W}{t}$
But we can rewrite the work as
$W=Fdcos\theta$
where F is the force applied, d the displacement of rock and $\theta=60^{\circ]$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement (3 m).
Therefore we can rewrite the power as
$P= \frac{W}{t} = \frac{F d cos\theta}{t}=F v cos\theta$
where $v=d/t=5~m/s$ is the velocity, Using the data of the exercise, we can then find the force, F:
$F= \frac{P}{v cos\theta} = \frac{250~W}{5~m/s \cdot cos 60^{\circ}}=100~N$

and now we can also calculate the work, which is
$W=Fdcos 60^{\circ}=100~N\cdot 3~m \cos60^{\circ}=150~J$

A man pushes down on a lever with 45 N and the lever moves 1.5 meters. The other end of the lever lifts a 87.6 N box .4 meters.

AysviL [449]

The input work = Force x distance
So I/P = 45 x 1.5 = 67.5 N.m

The output work = Force x distance
So, O/P = 87.6 x 0.4 = 35.04 N.m

Efficiency = (output work / Inputwork) x 100
= ( 35.04/67.5) x100

Efficiency = 51.91 %

Given a force of 100 N and an acceleration of 10 m/s^2, what is the mass?

frutty [35]

Given:

Force(F): 100 N

Acceleration: 10 m/s^2

Now we know that

F= mx a

Where F is the force acting on the object which is measured in Newton

m is the mass of the object measured in Kg

a is the acceleration measured in m/s^2

Substituting the given values in the above formula we get

100= 10m

m= 10 Kg
