Answer:

A. 140,800 J

Explanation:

Specific heat of a material is defined as the amount of energy required to increase in 1°C 1kg of the material. For wood there are required 1760J perkg per °C.

The equation is:

Q = C*m*ΔT

Where Q is heat in Joules,

C is specific heat (1760J/kg°C),

m is mass (2kg)

ΔT is change in temperature (50°C - 10°C = 40°C)

Replacing:

Q = 1760J/kg°C*2kg*40°C

Q = 140800J

Right option is:

Answer:

1. Equation: 2x + 3 = 9x - 11

2. Each row has 2 chairs

Explanation:

The variable x represents the number of chairs in each row.

1. She can form 2 rows of a given length with 3 chairs left over.

Thus, she has:

number of rows number of chairs in chairs number of chairs

each row left over she has

2 x 3 2x + 3

2. She can form 9 rows of the same length if she gets 11 more chairs.

That means that she is short in 11 chairs to have 9x chairs, or that she has 11 less chairs than 9x chairs. Then she has:

9x - 11

3. Equation:

Then, number of chairs she has is 2x + 3 and, also, 9x - 11, which allows to set the equation:

2x + 3 = 9x -11

4. Solve the equation:

9x - 2x = 3 + 11

7x = 14

x = 2

Therefore, each row has 2 chairs, and she has 2x + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7 chairs.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

The new volume is 5.92 L, which is approximately 6 L

Explanation:

As the gas temperature increases, the molecules move faster and take less time to reach the walls of the container. This means that the number of crashes per unit of time will be greater. That is, there will be an increase (for an instant) in the pressure inside the container and the volume will increase.

So Charles's Law is one of the gas laws that relates the volume and temperature of a certain amount of gas at constant pressure and says that:
