4.00 kg glass coffee cup is 30.0°C at room temperature. It is then plunged into hot dishwater at a temperature of 90.0°C, as sho
1 answer:
Answer:
Q = 200800 Joules.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 4kg
Initial temperature = 30.0°C
Final temperature = 90.0°C
Specific heat capacity of glass = 837 J/kg°C
To find the quantity of heat absorbed;
Heat capacity is given by the formula;
Where;
Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
m represents the mass of an object.
c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
dt represents the change in temperature.
dt = T2 - T1
dt = 90 - 30
dt = 60°C
Substituting the values into the equation, we have;
Q = 200800 Joules.
Therefore, the amount of heat absorbed is 200800 Joules.

Since Astronaut and wrench system is isolated in the space and there is no external force on it
So here momentum of the system will remain conserved
so here we can say
initially both are at rest
so here plug in all values
so here the astronaut will move in opposite direction and its speed will be equal to 0.20 m/s
Answer:
θ = 13.7º
Explanation:
- According to the work-energy theorem, the change in the kinetic energy of the combined mass of the child and the sled, is equal to the total work done on the object by external forces.
- The external forces capable to do work on the combination of child +sled, are the friction force (opposing to the displacement), and the component of the weight parallel to the slide.
- As this last work is just equal to the change in the gravitational potential energy (with opposite sign) , we can write the following equation:
- ΔK, is the change in kinetic energy, as follows:
- ΔU, is the change in the gravitational potential energy.
- If we choose as our zero reference level, the bottom of the slope, the change in gravitational potential energy will be as follows:
- Finally, the work done for non-conservative forces, is the work done by the friction force, along the slope, as follows:
- Replacing (2), (3), and (4) in (1), simplifying common terms, and rearranging, we have:
- Replacing by the givens and the knowns, we can solve for sin θ, as follows:
⇒ θ = sin⁻¹ (0.236) = 13.7º
