A microwave oven operating at 1.22 × 108 nm is used to heat 165 mL of water (roughly the volume of a teacup) from 23.0°C to 100.

ANTONII [103]

<u>Answer:</u> The number of photons are $3.7\times 10^8$

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Wavelength of microwave = $1.22\times 10^8nm=0.122m$ (Conversion factor: $1m=10^9nm$ )

To calculate the energy of one photon, we use Planck's equation, which is:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where,

h = Planck's constant = $6.625\times 10^{-34}J.s$

c = speed of light = $3\times 10^8m/s$

$\lambda$ = wavelength = 0.122 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$E=\frac{6.625\times 10^{-34}J.s\times 3\times 10^8m/s}{0.122m}\\\\E=1.63\times 10^{-24}J$

Now, calculating the energy of the photon with 88.3 % efficiency, we get:

$E=1.63\times 10^{-24}\times \frac{88.3}{100}=1.44\times 10^{-24}J$

To calculate the mass of water, we use the equation:

$Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

Density of water = 1 g/mL

Volume of water = 165 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{165mL}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=165g$

To calculate the amount of energy of photons to raise the temperature from 23°C to 100°C, we use the equation:

$q=mc\Delta T$

where,

m = mass of water = 165 g

c = specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g.°C

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature = $T_2-T_1=100^oC-23^oC=77^oC$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$q=165g\times 4.184J/g.^oC\times 77^oC\\\\q=53157.72J$

This energy is the amount of energy for 'n' number of photons.

To calculate the number of photons, we divide the total energy by energy of one photon, we get:

$n=\frac{q}{E}$

q = 53127.72 J

E = $1.44\times 10^{-24}J$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{53157.72J}{1.44\times 10^{-24}J}=3.7\times 10^{28}$

Hence, the number of photons are $3.7\times 10^8$

Analysis of the relationship between the fuel economy (mpg) and engine size (liters) for 35 models of cars produces the regres

kvasek [131]

Answer:

Gas mileage is 17.29

Explanation:

Given data:

The total number of the model is 35

The total size of the engine is 5 ltr

The regression model is given as

$36.44 - 3.829\times engine\ size$

From the information given in question we have

Regression equation is : model- mpg $= 36.44 - 3.829\times engine\ size$

Therefore for engine capacity of 5 liters;

Gas mileage $= 36.44 - 3.829\times 5 = 17.29$

Gas mileage is 17.29

Can someone help me with this real quick?

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

7,546 J

Explanation:

recall that Potential energy is given by

P.E = mgΔh

where m = 70kg (given)

g = 9.8 m/s² (acceleration due to gravity)

Δh = change in height

= distance from top of building to top of car

= height of building - height of car

= (5+8) - 2

= 11m

substituting all these into the equation:

P.E = mgΔh

= 70 x 9.8 x 11

= 7,546 J
