Substance A would have a delta T (change in temp) rise 1/2 the rise in substance B.

Q=mc x delta T

Q= heat energy in Joules
m= mass of substance heated or cooled
c= specific heat
ΔT is change in temp.

Solve for change in temp=. Q/mc

Specific heat and mass are not inversely proportional to heat energy input.

Putting into real world scenario of using water to heat a building.

Specific heat of water is 1.
It takes 1 btu to raise one pound of water 1 degF. at a base of 60 degF

Acetone specific heat is .51

So it takes half the amount of heat input to get a 100 degree ΔT, as compared to water.

Jack travelled 360 km at an average speed of 80 km/h. Elaine
diamong [38]

Answer:

Average speed of Elain = 60 km/h

Explanation:

Total Distance covered by Jack = 360km

Average Speed of Jack = 80 km/h

Time taken by Jack to complete his journey = Distance / Average speed = 360 km / 80 km/h

Time taken by Jack to complete his journey = 4.5 hours

As it is given the both Jack and Elain travelled the same amount of distance:

Total distance travelled by Elain = 360 km

It is given that Elain took 1.5 hourse more than Jack to cover the distance, so Time taken by Elain to cover the distance is = 4.5 hours + 1.5 hours = 6 hours

Average speed of Elain = Distance/ time = 360 km / 6 hours

Average speed of Elain = 60 km/h

Billy drops a water balloon from the roof of his house. Since the balloon began with an original velocity of zero how far above
VashaNatasha [74]
T=2,5s
a=g≈10m/s²

h=s=?

s= \frac{1}{2} at^2 \Leftrightarrow h=\frac{1}{2}gt^2=\frac{1}{2}*10m/s^2 *(2,5s)^2=5m/s^2* \frac{25}{4} s^2=\boxed{31,25m}

Why are the parts of an atom that electrons occupy called electron clouds?
Anna [14]

Because it's literally impossible to tell exactly where something that size is
located at any particular time.

And that's NOT because it's so small that we can't see it.  It's because any
material object behaves as if it's made of waves, and the smaller the object is,
the more the size of its waves get to be like the same size as the object. 
When you get down to things the size of subatomic particles, it doesn't make
sense any more to try and talk about where the particle actually "is", and we only
talk about the waves that define it, and how the waves all combine to become a
cloud of <em><u>probability</u></em> of where the particle is.

I know it sounds weird.  But that's the way it is.  Sorry.

If the forces acting on an object are balanced, wihat must be true about the motion of this object?
wolverine [178]

The correct answer to the question is : D) Be moving at a constant velocity.

EXPLANATION:

As per Newton's first laws of motion, every body continues to be  at state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless and until it is compelled by some external unbalanced forces acting on it.

Hence, it is the unbalanced force which changes the state of rest or motion of a body. Balanced force is responsible for keeping the body to be either in static equilibrium or in dynamic equilibrium.

As per the options given in the question, the last one is true for an object under balanced forces.
