Calculate the specific heat of a metal from the following data. A container made of the metal has a mass of 3.8 kg and contains
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

C = 771.35 J/kg°C

Explanation:

Here, e consider the conservation of energy equation. The conservation of energy principle states that:

Heat Given by Metal Piece = Heat Absorbed by Water + Heat Absorbed by Container

Since,

Heat Given or Absorbed by a material = m C ΔT

Therefore,

m₁CΔT₁ = m₂CΔT₂ + m₃C₃ΔT₃

where,

m₁ = Mass of Metal Piece = 2.3 kg

C = Specific Heat of Metal = ?

ΔT₁ = Change in temperature of metal piece = 165°C - 18°C = 147°C

m₂ = Mass of Metal Container = 3.8 kg

ΔT₂ = Change in temperature of metal piece = 18°C - 15°C = 3°C

m₃ = Mass of Water = 20 kg

C₃ = Specific Heat of Water = 4200 J/kg°C

ΔT₃ = Change in temperature of water = 18°C - 15°C = 3°C

Therefore,

(2.3 kg)(C)(147°C) = (3.8 kg)(C)(3°C) + (20 kg)(4186 J/kg°C)(3°C)

C[(2.3 kg)(147°C) - (3.8 kg)(3°C)] = 252000 J

C = 252000 J/326.7 kg°C

<u>C = 771.35 J/kg°C</u>

A person with mass mp = 76 kg stands on a spinning platform disk with a radius of R = 1.98 m and mass md = 191 kg. The disk is i
nalin [4]
<span>1.7 rad/s The key thing here is conservation of angular momentum. The system as a whole will retain the same angular momentum. The initial velocity is 1.7 rad/s. As the person walks closer to the center of the spinning disk, the speed will increase. But I'm not going to bother calculating by how much. Just remember the speed will increase. And then as the person walks back out to the rim to the same distance that the person originally started, the speed will decrease. But during the entire walk, the total angular momentum remained constant. And since the initial mass distribution matches the final mass distribution, the final angular speed will match the initial angular speed.</span>

A Net Force of 9.0 N acts through a distance of 3.0 m in a time of 3.0 s. The work done is?
JulijaS [17]
Work done is the distance a force acts over.

So, the work done here is 9.0N * 3.0m = 27 J
