Answer:
value of x = 5.8 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given,
Two right triangles EDH and EDG.
In right triangle EDH, EH = 56mm , DH = 35 mm
Using Pythagoras theorem we can find ED.
i.e EH² = ED²+DH²
56²=ED²+35²
ED²=56²-35²
ED = √(56²-35²) = 7√39 = 43.71 mm
Now, Consider right triangle EDG
Here, EG=44.8mm , GD = x+4 and ED = 7√39
Again using Pythagoras theorem,
EG² = ED² + DG²
44.8²= (7√39)²+ (x+4)²
(x+4)² = 44.8² - (7√39)²
x+4 = √(44.8² - (7√39)²)
x+4 = 9.8
or x = 9.8 - 4 = 5.8 mm
Hence we got the value of x = 5.8 mm
Answer:
The required specific heat is 196.94 joule per kg per °C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
The heat generated = Q = 85.87 J
Mass of substance (m)= 34.8 gram = 0.0348 kg
Change in temperature = T2 - T1 = 34.29°C - 21.76°C = 12.53°C
Let the specific heat = S
Now we know that
Heat = Mass × specific heat × change in temperature
Or, Q = msΔt
Or, 85.87 = (0.0348 kg ) × S × 12.53°C
Or , 85.87 = 0.4360 × S
Or, S = 
∴ S = 196.94 joule per kg per °C
Hence the required specific heat is 196.94 joule per kg per °C Answer
