Answer:
Option 10. 169.118 J/KgºC
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Change in temperature (ΔT) = 20 °C
Heat (Q) absorbed = 1.61 KJ
Mass of metal bar = 476 g
Specific heat capacity (C) of metal bar =?
Next, we shall convert 1.61 KJ to joule (J). This can be obtained as follow:
1 kJ = 1000 J
Therefore,
1.61 KJ = 1.61 KJ × 1000 J / 1 kJ
1.61 KJ = 1610 J
Next, we shall convert 476 g to Kg. This can be obtained as follow:
1000 g = 1 Kg
Therefore,
476 g = 476 g × 1 Kg / 1000 g
476 g = 0.476 Kg
Finally, we shall determine the specific heat capacity of the metal bar. This can be obtained as follow:
Change in temperature (ΔT) = 20 °C
Heat (Q) absorbed = 1610 J
Mass of metal bar = 0.476 Kg
Specific heat capacity (C) of metal bar =?
Q = MCΔT
1610 = 0.476 × C × 20
1610 = 9.52 × C
Divide both side by 9.52
C = 1610 / 9.52
C = 169.118 J/KgºC
Thus, the specific heat capacity of the metal bar is 169.118 J/KgºC
Not that simple but there are ways. Just make sure your hands can handle it
Answer:
- increasing use of hybrid crops
- altering genes in DNA to create new plants
- developing disease or pest resistant crops
Explanation:
The use of genetic factors to influence the growth of a plant encompasses manipulating the genetic constituent (gene) of such plant.
For example,
- Increasing use of hybrid crops entails mating two pure bred plants based on a gene of interest responsible for a particular trait, to form a hybrid.
- Altering genes in DNA to create new plants is also a genetic factor as it has to with gene modification.
- developing disease or pest resistant crops means that the genetic make up of such plant has been modified to be resistant to pest/disease.
Answer:
Increases
Explanation:
The expression for the capacitance is as follows as;
Here, C is the capacitance, 
is the permittivity of free space, A is the area and d is the distance between the parallel plate capacitor.
It can be concluded from the above expression, the capacitance is inversely proportional to the distance. According to the given problem, the capacitor is disconnected from the battery and the distance between the plates is increased. Then, the capacitance of the given capacitor will decrease in this case.
The expression for the energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor is as follows;
Here, E is the energy stored in the capacitor, C is the capacitance and Q is the charge.
Energy stored in the given capacitor is inversely proportional to the capacitor. The charge on the capacitor is constant. In the given problem, as the distance between the parallel plates is being separated, the energy stored in this capacitor increases.
Therefore, the option (c) is correct.
