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

Physics

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

valentinak56 [21]

Answer: Alfred Wegener provided some of the important points that supported the theory of continental drift. They are as follows-

  1. The continents were once all attached together, and this can be proved by studying the coastlines of some of the continents that perfectly matches with one another.
  2. The appearance of similar rock types and similar fossils (including both animals and plants) has also contributed much information that continents were once all together.

Suppose that instead of being inclined to Earth's orbit around the Sun, the Moonâs orbit was in the same plane as Earthâs orbit
ycow [4]

Answer:

c) 12

Explanation:

A Solar eclipse occurs when The Sun, The Earth and The Moon comes in a straight line with the Moon being in between the Earth and the Sun. At this point the Moon appears to block the Sun and Moon's shadow falls on Earth. This would occur only on the day of the New Moon.

If the Moon's orbit was in the same plane as that of the Earth's orbit. Every new Moon, there would be a Solar Eclipse. The Lunar cycle is of 29.5 Days which means there will be one new Moon every month. So there will be 12 Solar Eclipses every year.

Currently, the orbit of the Moon is tilted at an angle of 5° thus we don't see that many Solar eclipses. Maximum of 5 solar eclipses can occur in an year.

A net force of 20 N acting on a wooden block produces an
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

From the second law of motion:

F = ma

we are given that the force applied on the block is 20N and the block accelerates at an acceleration of 4 m/s/s

So, F=  20N   and  a = 4 m/s/s

Replacing the variables in the equation:

20 = 4* m

m = 20 / 4

m = 5 kg

The sound level measured in a room by a person watching a movie on a home theater system varies from 40 dB during a quiet part t
UNO [17]

Answer:

\alpha=-3.01dB

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sound level intensity

 \triangle I=40dB-80dB

Generally the equation for  intensity level  is mathematically given by

 \alpha=10log_{10}(I/I_x)dB

Where

 I= Intensity measured

 I_x=Threshold\ of\ audibility

 I_x= 10-12 W / m2

 \alpha= 10 log10 \frac{I_1}{I_x} - 10 log10 \frac{}I_2{I_x}

 \alpha= 10 log10 \frac{I_1}{I_2}

 \alpha=10 log10\frac{40}{80}

 \alpha=-3.01dB
