Answer:

0.47kg

Explanation:

1. find the change in temperature (the start point of the straight line)

100-22= 78 degrees celsius

2. use specific heat capacity equation

change in thermal energy (J) = m x J/kg C X 78

155000= m x 4200 x 78

3. rearrange to find m

155000/(4200x78)

4200x78= 327600

155000/327600= 0.4731379

2sf= 0.47kg

Answer:

0.37 kg

Explanation:

I'm not a professor myself, but this is how I worked it out:

using the graph, after 100 seconds, the temperature is 100 degrees Celsius.

If we now substitute everything into the specific heat capacity equation, making the mass "m", we would come up with:

4200 = 155000/(m x 100)

If we rearrange and solve for m, we get 0.37 kg.

I'm not sure if I have done this correctly, feel free to correct me.

Hope this helps!

A mass of 2.50 kg is in a gravitational field of 14.0 N/kg. What force acts on the mass?
Olenka [21]
To determine the force that acts on the mass, just multiply the mass by the gravitational field. Using the given data,
                             F = (2.50 kg)(14 N/kg) = 35 N
Therefore, the force that acts on the mass is equal to 35 N.

It is difficult to observe 1-nanometer, 1 millimeter, and 100 meter radiation with ground-based telescopes. What are the reasons
Paul [167]

Explanation:

1 nano-meter radiations are very difficult to observe from the ground based telescope because most of this range of radiation is absorbed through ozone layer. A very small amount of this range escape out of the ozone layer. This remaining few radiations are very difficult to track from the ground base telescope.

1 millimeter range of radiation comprises of infrared. It has range from 710 nano-meter to 1 millimeter. Infrared radiation can be easily absorbed from water and carbon di oxide molecules present in the atmosphere. So, it is absorbed by water and carbon di oxide molecules in the atmosphere. Thus, it is difficult to observe from the ground based telescope.

100 meter radiations are are radio-waves. The charged particle present in the uppermost layer of atmosphere absorbs these radio waves. So, these waves are absorbed by charged particle in the upper atmosphere. Thus, it is difficult to observe from the ground based telescope.

The wavelength of light visible to the human eye is on the order of 5 x 10-7 m. if the speed of light in air is 3 x 108 m/s, fin
juin [17]

The frequency of light wave is 0.6*10^15 Hz.

The relation between the speed of light, frequency, and wavelength is given as

c=λν

Plugging the values in the above equation

3*10^8=5*10^(-7)*ν

ν=0.6*10^15 Hz.

Therefore the frequency of the light wave is 0.6*10^15 Hz.
