How can we calculate force
lutik1710 [3]

To calculate force, use the formula force equals mass times acceleration, or F = m × a. Make sure that the mass measurement you're using is in kilograms and the acceleration is in meters over seconds squared. When you've solved the equation, the force will be measured in Newtons.

Solution A has a specific heat of 2.0 J/g◦C. Solution B has a specific heat of 3.8 J/g◦C. If equal masses of both solutions start
fgiga [73]

Answer: 2. Solution A attains a higher temperature.

Explanation: Specific heat simply means, that amount of heat which is when supplied to a unit mass of a substance will raise its temperature by 1°C.

In the given situation we have equal masses of two solutions A & B, out of which A has lower specific heat which means that a unit mass of solution A requires lesser energy to raise its temperature by 1°C than the solution B.

Since, the masses of both the solutions are same and equal heat is supplied to both, the proportional condition will follow.

<em>We have a formula for such condition,</em>

Q=m.c.\Delta T.....................................(1)

where:

  • \Delta T= temperature difference
  • Q= heat energy
  • m= mass of the body
  • c= specific heat of the body

<u>Proving mathematically:</u>

<em>According to the given conditions</em>

  • we have equal masses of two solutions A & B, i.e. m_A=m_B
  • equal heat is supplied to both the solutions, i.e. Q_A=Q_B
  • specific heat of solution A, c_{A}=2.0 J.g^{-1} .\degree C^{-1}
  • specific heat of solution B, c_{B}=3.8 J.g^{-1} .\degree C^{-1}
  • \Delta T_A & \Delta T_B are the change in temperatures of the respective solutions.

Now, putting the above values

Q_A=Q_B

m_A.c_A. \Delta T_A=m_B.c_B . \Delta T_B\\\\2.0\times \Delta T_A=3.8 \times \Delta T_B\\\\ \Delta T_A=\frac{3.8}{2.0}\times \Delta T_B\\\\\\\frac{\Delta T_{A}}{\Delta T_{B}} = \frac{3.8}{2.0}>1

Which proves that solution A attains a higher temperature than solution B.

Not sure if it went through last time. Please help asap!
Olin [163]
The equation for force is F=ma. Because we have the value of mass (0.42 kg) and the acceleration (14.8 m/s^2), simply plug them into the equation for force to get
0.42 \times 14.8 = 6.22
The answer is 6.22 N because newtons are the unit used to measure force.
