Hope this helps with the answer to your question
Ice floats because it is about 9% less dense than liquid water. ... The heavier water displaces the lighter ice, so ice floats to the top. One consequence of this is that lakes and rivers freeze from top to bottom, allowing fish to survive even when the surface of a lake has frozen over
Answer:
C. move left
Explanation:
The object will move towards the left direction due to the unbalanced forces that are acting on it.
The resultant force on the object will be 1N in the left direction
- The resultant force on a body is that singular force that will have the same effect as the different forces that acts on a body
- When forces acts in opposite directions, they are subtracted
- The object will move in the direction of the one with the greater force
So;
Resultant force = 26N - 25N = 1N
The body moves 1N to the left
Given:
Ma = 31.1 g, the mass of gold
Ta = 69.3 °C, the initial temperature of gold
Mw = 64.2 g, the mass of water
Tw = 27.8 °C, the initial temperature of water
Because the container is insulated, no heat is lost to the surroundings.
Let T °C be the final temperature.
From tables, obtain
Ca = 0.129 J/(g-°C), the specific heat of gold
Cw = 4.18 J/(g-°C), the specific heat of water
At equilibrium, heat lost by the gold - heat gained by the water.
Heat lost by the gold is
Qa = Ma*Ca*(T - Ta)
= (31.1 g)*(0.129 J/(g-°C)(*(69.3 - T °C)-
= 4.0119(69.3 - T) j
Heat gained by the water is
Qw = Mw*Cw*(T-Tw)
= (64.2 g)*(4.18 J/(g-°C))*(T - 27.8 °C)
= 268.356(T - 27.8)
Equate Qa and Qw.
268.356(T - 27.8) = 4.0119(69.3 - T)
272.3679T = 7738.32
T = 28.41 °C
Answer: 28.4 °C
