Answer:

Q = 48341.7 Joules.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass, m = 257g

Initial temperature, T1 = 18°C

Final temperature, T2 = 63°C

Specific heat capacity of water, c = 4.18 J/g°C.

*To find the quantity of heat absorbed*

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mcdt

Where;

  • Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
  • m represents the mass of an object.
  • c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
  • dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 63 - 18

dt = 45°C

<em>Substituting the values into the equation, we have;</em>

Q = 257*4.18*45

<em>Q = 48341.7 Joules.</em>

<em>Therefore, the amount of heat absorbed is 48341.7 Joules</em>.

Which one is having lesser ressistance. a 60w bulb or a 40w bulb?
Ivan
Power dissipation = (voltage across the component)² / (resistance of the component)

Since the resistance is in the denominator of the fraction in this formula for the
quantity of power dissipated, you can see that when the supply voltage is constant,
the smaller resistance dissipates more power.

So the <u>60w bulb</u> has lower resistance than the 40w bulb.

Stress distributed over an area is best described as: a) External force b) Axial force c) Radial force d) Internal resistive for
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Option D is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Stress is the force per unit area that tend to change the shape of body.

Stress is defined as internal resistive force per unit area.

         \texttt{Stress}=\frac{\texttt{Internal resistive force}}{\texttt{Area}}

         \sigma =\frac{F}{A}

So, so stress distributed over an area is best described as internal resistive force.

Option D is the correct answer.
