Find the specific heat of a substance that requires 8000 J of energy to heat up 400g by 20 C?

Physics
1 answer:
monitta3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

c=1\ J/g^\circ C

Explanation:

Given that,

Heat required, Q = 8000 J

Mass, m = 400 g

The change in temperature, \Delta T = 20^{\circ}

The heat required due to change in temperature is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T\\\\c=\dfrac{Q}{m\Delta T}\\\\c=\dfrac{8000 }{400\times 20}\\\\c=1\ J/g^\circ C

So, the specific heat of the substance is 1\ J/g^\circ C

A major league baseball has a mass of 0.145 kg.
galben [10]

The momentum of the ball when it hits the ground is 4.89 kg.m/s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>mass of the baseball, m = 0.145 kg</em>
  • <em>height of fall of the ball, h = 58 m</em>

The final velocity of the ball when it hits the ground is calculated as follows;

v_f ^2 = v_0^2 + 2gh\\\\v_f^2 = 0 + 2gh\\\\v_f^2 = 2gh\\\\v_f = \sqrt{2gh} \\\\v_f = \sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 58}\\\\v_f = 33.72 \ m/s

The momentum of the ball when it hits the ground is calculated as follows;

P = mv

P = 0.145 x 33.72

P = 4.89 kg.m/s

Thus, the momentum of the ball when it hits the ground is 4.89 kg.m/s.

Reto: Aníbal desea construir una carpa de base hexagonal de 1,40 m de altura. El vértice de la base es de 0,80m y la longitud de
Rudiy27

Answer:

1.- para cubrir la superficie lateral 4.32 metros²

2.- Area de la base  2.15 metros²

3.- Volumen 1 m³

4.- Area total 6.47 metros²

Explanation:

El área lateral sera calcular el area de seis triangulos iguales cuya base es

0.80 de base x 6 lados = 4.80 metros perimetro de la base

4.80 perimetro de base x 1.80 arista lateral / 2 = 4.32m2

Area de la base:

Perímetro x Apotema / 2

Siendo la Apotema la altura de los triangulos que componen un hexagono calculada utilizando el teorema de pitágoras:

\sqrt{0.8^2 + (0.8/2)^2} = Apotema

Apotema = 0.894427191

Area: 4.80 x 0.894427191 / 2 = 2.146625258

sumando el area de la base mas el area lateral se obtiene el area total

2.15 + 4.32 = 6.47 metros

Volumen de la pirámide:

Area de la Base x Altura / 3

2.15 x 1.40 / 3 = 1.00333 m3

What is the idea behind the law of multiple proportions?
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The law of multiple proportions states that when two elements can combine in different ratios to form different compounds, the masses of the element combining with the fixed mass of another element result in whole number ratios. This shows that the law of multiple proportions is followed

what occurs when a swimmer pushes through the water to swim answers are (A) the water exerts a reaction force on the swimmer (B)
miv72 [106K]
When a swimmer pushes through water to swim they are propelled forward because of the water resistance against the hand and feet. It's A. The water doesn't automatically push the swimmer forward. It releases a reaction after the swimmer pushes through the water.

Define moment of momentum. at which condition is it's magnitude zero?​
ololo11 [35]

Let's start with the concept of momentum. What is it? Linear momentum in physics is mathematically written as a product of mass and velocity of an object. Now let us suppose a body of mass m is moving in an inertial frame of reference with velocity v. Consider the fact that no external force is acting on the system. The momentum of this body is given by mv, where m is the mass and v is its velocity. In case of simple real world problems not delving into the realms of relativity, mass is a conserved quantity and it cannot be zero. Hence the velocity of the body must be zero and hence the momentum.

However, photons are considered to have a rest mass zero.

However note the point carefully "rest mass". A body in motion cannot have mass to be zero.
