Answer:

The principal hair fiber used to produce textile fabrics is sheep's wool. In wild sheep, the wool is a short, soft underlayer protected by longer, coarser hair. ... Fur fibers from animals such as mink and beavers are sometimes blended with other hairs to spin luxury yarns but are most often found as fur pelts.

If 1495 j of heat is needed to raise the temperature of a 351 g sample of a metal from 55.0°c to 66.0°c, what is the specific he

forsale [732]

The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of a substance by $\Delta T$ is given by
$Q= mC_s \Delta T$
where m is the mass of the substance, Cs is its specific heat capacity and $\Delta T$ is the increase of temperature.

If we re-arrange the formula, we get
$C_s = \frac{Q}{m \Delta T}$
And if we plug the data of the problem into the equation, we can find the specific heat capacity of the substance:
$C_s = \frac{1495 J}{(351 g)(66.0^{\circ}C-55.0^{\circ}C)}=0.39 J/g^{\circ}C$

Jack and Jill have made up since the previous HW assignment, and are now playing on a 10 meter seesaw. Jill is sitting on one en

Airida [17]

Answer: 3 m.

Explanation:

Neglecting the mass of the seesaw, in order the seesaw to be balanced, the sum of the torques created by gravity acting on both children must be 0.

As we are asked to locate Jack at some distance from the fulcrum, we can take torques regarding the fulcrum, which is located at just in the middle of the length of the seesaw.

If we choose the counterclockwise direction as positive, we can write the torque equation as follows (assuming that Jill sits at the left end of the seesaw):

mJill* 5m -mJack* d = 0

60 kg*5 m -100 kg* d =0

Solving for d:

d = 3 m.
