Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 121.905 \ J  }}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the energy given mass, specific heat, and change in temperature. Therefore, we must use this formula;

q= mc \Delta T

The mass is 15 grams and the specific heat is 0.129 J/(g×°C). Let's calculate the change in temperature.

  • ΔT= final temperature - initial temperature
  • ΔT= 85 °C- 22°C = 63°C

Now we know all the values:

m= 15 \ g \ \\c= 0.129 \ J / (g* \textdegree C) \\\Delta T= 63 \ \textdegree C

Substitue the values into the formula.

q= (15 \ g)( 0.129 \ J / (g* \textdegree C)) ( 63 \ \textdegree C)

Multiply the first numbers together. The grams will cancel.

q= (1.935 \ J/ \textdegree C) ( 63 \ \textdegree C)

Multiply again, this time the degrees Celsius cancels.

q= 121.905 \ J

<u>121.905 Joules</u> are required.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

(A) True

Explanation:

The sun is producting the electromagnetic radiation which is the primary energy source on Earth and the driver of the entire climate system.

In general the sun is the source of energy that drives all life on Earth. This energy governs the weather, ocean currents and the hydrological cycles.

Without the continuous influx of sunlight and heat, life on Earth would cease to exist. The sun sets off the hydrological cycle, causing it to constantly evaporate into the atmosphere, from which it falls back to Earth.

katrin [286]

The answer is C. The widely used technique for finding extraterrestrial life is use of SETI (search for extraterrestrial intelligence) dishes that listen for radio waves from outer space. NASA has also been sending radio waves to outer space with messages that could purportedly be decoded by alien intelligent life.

Virty [35]

To write your argument first write an appropriate thesis statement, then look for reliable information to support it and include this information.

<h3>What is the purpose of an argument?</h3>

The purpose of an argumentative text is to prove the author's position.

<h3>How to write an argument?</h3>

  • Look for reliable and credible sources to support the thesis statement. To do this make sure the information is updated and the author is credible.
  • Start writing a text that explains your position by citing the information found in the sources.
  • Continue adding ideas and roofread the text until your position is completely supported and explain.

Note: This question is incomplete because the topic you need to write about is not given; due to this, the answer is based on general knowledge.
