Answer:

Latent heat (also called the hidden heat ) is the heat that is already present in the substance. It is energy in hidden form which is supplied or extracted to change the state of a substance without changing its temperature

<h3><u>L</u><u>e</u><u>t</u><u>s</u><u> </u><u>e</u><u>x</u><u>p</u><u>l</u><u>o</u><u>r</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>m</u><u>o</u><u>r</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u></h3>

  • Latent heat = energy released or absorbed / Mass

  • Latent heat of fusion is the amount of heat energy that convert 1 kg of solid into liquid without changing its temperature

  • Latent heat of vaporisation is the amount of heat energy that convert 1 kg of liquid into gas without changing its temperature

On a winter day with a temperature of -10°C, 500g of snow (water ice) is brought inside where the temperature is 18 °C. The snow
Serjik [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass of ice m = 500g = .5 kg

Heat required to raise the temperature of ice by 10 degree

= mass of ice x specific heat of ice x change in temperature

= .5 x 2093 x 10 J

10465 J

Heat required to melt the ice

= mass of ice x latent heat

0.5 x 334 x 10³ J

167000 J

Heat required to raise its temperature to 18 degree

= mass x specific heat of water x rise in temperature

= .5 x 4182 x 18

=37638 J

Total heat

=10465 +167000+ 37638

=215103 J

Veronica claims that she can throw a dart at a dartboard from a distance of 2 m and hit the 5 cm wide bullseye if she throws the
wariber [46]
First, find the amount of time for the dart to hit the board using this equation: t = d/v

t = 2 m/ 15 m/s = 0.133 s

Then, find the height the dart has fallen from its initial point using this equation: h = 0.5gt²

h = 0.5(9.81 m/s²)(0.133 s)² = 0.0872 m or 8.72 cm

Since the diameter of the bull's eye is only 5 cm, and you started at the same level of the top of the bull's eye, that means the maximum allowance would only be 5 cm. Since it exceeded to 8.72 cm, it means that <em>Veronica will not hit the bull's eye.</em>

A bike accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 7.10 m/s over a distance of 35.4m .determine the acceleration of the bike.
sergeinik [125]
Given: Change of x is 35.4m, Velocity Final=7.10 m/s, Velocity Initial=0m/s
Find: Acceleration
Analysis:
Vf²=Vi²+2aΔx (Velocity final squared equals Velocity initial squared plus 2 times acceleration times change of x)
(7.10 m²/s)²=(0 m/s)²+2a(35.4 m)
50.41 m/s²=(70.8 m)a
a=0.712 m/s²
