The formula shown below is used to calculate the energy released when a specific quantity of fuel is burned. Calculate the energ

y released by a burning sample of fuel if the temperature of 100g of water was raised by 20 °C. (Specific heat capacity of water = 4200J/kg °C)

Answer: 8400 J

Explanation:

The formula referenced in the question is:

Q=m. c. \Delta T  

Where:

Q  is the thermal energy

m=100g \frac{1 kg}{1000 g}=0.1 kg is the mass  of the water sample

c=4200 \frac{J}{kg\°C}  is the specific heat capacity of  water

\Delta T=20\°C  is the variation in temperature

Solving:

Q=(0.1 kg)(4200 \frac{J}{kg\°C})(20\°C)  

Q=8400 J  This is the thermal energy released

The dot or scalar product of two (3d) vec- tors ⃗a = ⟨a1,a2,a3⟩ and ⃗b = ⟨b1,b2,b3⟩ is defined as
Neko [114]

Yes, yes, we know all of that.  It certainly took you long enough to
get around to asking your question.

If
     a = (14, 10.5, 0)
and
     b = (4.62, 9.45, 0) ,

then, to begin with, neither vector has a z-component, and they
 both lie in the x-y plane.

Their dot-product  a · b = (14 x 4.62) + (10.5 x 9.45) =

                                             (64.68)   +   (99.225)  =  163.905 (scalar)          


I feel I earned your generous 5 points just reading your treatise and
finding your question (in the last line).  I shall cherish every one of them.
