Answer:

m of solid = 600g = 0.6kg

T=40°C

It was placed in a calorimeter that contains 25g(0.025kg) of water at 10°C

Now. We would have considered the calorimeter in this solving because it will be at the same temp as the water which it is holding. Example... If you put a hot water inside a Cup... The cup itself will become hot and have the same temp as the water you put in it ...

But in this question... We'll Ignore the Calorimeter and the heat gained by it since no parameter was given for it and also We don't know the material which the calorimeter is made of.

So

Since the Solid is at a higher temp(40°)... It will lose heat to water; which is at a lower temp.

From the question... THE EQUILIBRIUM TEMPERATURE REACHED IS 25°C

Then

Temp Change for solid(heat loss) = 40-25=15°C

Temp Change for water(heat gain)= 25-10 =15°C

Heat lost by solid = Heat gained by water

MC∆T = MC∆T

0.6 x C x 15 = 0.025 x 4180 x 15

C= 0.025x4180x15÷(0.6x15)

C= 174.16 ~ 174J/Kg.K.

OPTION C IS LEGIT

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity is the heat or energy required to change one unit mass of a substance of a constant volume by 1 °C. The formula is Cv = Q / (ΔT ⨉ m) .

A powerful missile reaches a speed of 5 kilometers per second in 10 seconds after its launch. What is the average acceleration o
AveGali [126]

Average acceleration  =  (change in speed)  /  (time for the change)

The missile's change in speed is  (5,000 - 0)  =  5,000 m/s

Average acceleration  =  (5,000 m/s)  /  (10 sec)

                                 =      500 m/s²       (about  51 Gs)

Inconveniently, this isn't one of the choices on the list. Is there something wrong, either with the choices or with my solution ?

No. Relax. Everything is OK.

500 meters is the same thing as 0.5 kilometer.  So my answer can also be written as  0.5 km/s² .  That doesn't change anything, and it IS one of the listed choices.

The average acceleration is <em>0.5 km/sec²  (d)</em> .

Natali [406]

Answer:

How to find the maximum height of a projectile?

if α = 90°, then the formula simplifies to: hmax = h + V₀² / (2 * g) and the time of flight is the longest. ...

if α = 45°, then the equation may be written as: ...

if α = 0°, then vertical velocity is equal to 0 (Vy = 0), and that's the case of horizontal projectile motion.

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

23.67 km / hr

Explanation:

car travels 355 km (d)

duration = 15 hrs  (t)

average speed formula = v = d / t

v = 355 km / 15 hr

v = 23.67 km / hr
