A 50 g sample of an unknown metal is heated to 90.0C. It is placed in a perfectly insulated container along with 100 g of water

at an initial temperature of 20C. After a short time, the temperature of both the metal and water become equal at 25C. The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/gC in this temperature range. What is the specific heat capacity of the metal?

Answer:

0.64 J/g°C

Explanation:

Using the formula;

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat

m = mass (g)

c = specific heat capacity

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

In this case:

Q (water) = - Q (metal)

mc∆T (water) = - mc∆T (metal)

According to the information in this question,

For water; m = 100g, c = 4.18J/g°C, ∆T = (25°C - 20°C)

For metal; m = 50g, c =?, ∆T = (25°C - 90°C)

mc∆T (water) = - mc∆T (metal)

100 × 4.18 × (25°C - 20°C) = - {50 × c × (25°C - 90°C)}

100 × 4.18 × 5 = - {50 × c × -65}

2090 = -{-3250c}

2090 = 3250c

c = 2090/3250

c = 0.643

c = 0.64J/g°C

Which option lists a form of potential energy followed by a form of kinetic energy?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Magnetic energy and electromagnetic energy form of potential energy followed by a form of kinetic energy.

(B) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Lists a form of potential energy followed by a form of kinetic energy

We know that,

Sound energy :

The movement of energy through object it is called sound energy. When a object produced vibration by force then it moves in wave.

Sound wave is example of kinetic energy.

Nuclear energy :

The store energy in the nucleus of the atom it is called nuclear energy. This energy released when occurs fusion and fission.

Nuclear energy is the example of potential energy

Magnetic energy :

Magnetic energy is a type of potential energy which is depend on distance and position in the magnetic field.

Electromagnetic energy :

Electromagnetic energy is light energy. it is type of kinetic energy.

Gravitational energy :

Gravitational energy is a type of potential energy. It is an energy related with gravity or gravitational force.

Elastic energy :

The store energy in elastic object it is called elastic energy. This energy is a type of potential energy.

Electrical energy :

The movement of electrons is called electrical energy. When electrons move through a wire then it is are called electricity. Electrical energy is type of kinetic energy.

Hence, Magnetic energy and electromagnetic energy form of potential energy followed by a form of kinetic energy.

(B) is correct option.

(b) A piece of wood of volume 0.6 m² floats in water. Find the volume
enot [183]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the volume below water be v . Then

buoyant force = v d g where d is density of water , g is acceleration due to gravity

= v x 1000 x g

weight of wood piece = volume x density of wood x g

= .6 x 600 x g

for equilibrium while floating

buoyant force = weight

= v x 1000 x g  =  .6 x 600 x g

v = .36 m²

volume above water or volume exposed = .6 - .36

= .24 m²

When immersed completely ,

buoyant force = .6 x 1000 x 9.8

= 5880 N

weight of wood

=  .6 x 600 x g

= 3528 N

buoyant force is more than the weight . In order to equalise them for floating with full volume in water

weight required = 5880 - 3528

= 2352 N.

What is the angular displacement of a minute hand of a clock after 3 minutes?​
Inessa [10]

Answer:

π/10 rads

Explanation:

It takes an hour (60 minutes) for the minute's hand to turn a full circle or achieve an angular rotation of

2πl rad.

Now, number of periods of 3 minutes in an hour is;

Number of periods = 60/3 = 20 periods

Thus, 3 minutes rotation accounts for 1/20 of 2π the rotation of the minute's hand in an hour.

Thus;

Angular displacement = (1/20) * 2π = π/10 rads
