A hot-water bottle contains 787 g of water at 75∘C. If the liquid water cools to body temperature (37 ∘C), how many kilojoules o
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Q = 787 gr * 1 \frac{cal}{gr C} *(37-75)C = -29906 cal

So then the answer for this case would be 29906 cal but we need to convert this into KJ and we know that 1 cal = 4.184 J and if we convert we got:

29906 cal *\frac{4.184 J}{1 cal}* \frac{1KJ}{1000 J}= 125.127 KJ

Explanation:

For this case we know the mass of the water given :

m = 787 gr

And we know that the initial temperature for this water is T_i =75 C.

We want to cool this water to the human body temperature T_f = 37 C

Since the temperatures given are not near to 0C (fusion point) or 100C (the boling point) we don't need to use latent heat, then the only heat involved for this case is the sensible heat given by:

Q= m c_p \Delta T

Where c_p represent the specific heat for the water and this value from tables we know that c_p =1 \frac{cal}{gr C} for the water.

So then we have everything in order to replace into the formula of sensible heat and we got:

Q = 787 gr * 1 \frac{cal}{gr C} *(37-75)C = -29906 cal

So then the answer for this case would be 29906 cal but we need to convert this into KJ and we know that 1 cal = 4.184 J and if we convert we got:

29906 cal *\frac{4.184 J}{1 cal}* \frac{1KJ}{1000 J}= 125.127 KJ

A beam of red light is made to pass through two slits that are 3.55 E-3 meters apart. On a screen 2.25 meters away from the slit
JulsSmile [24]
I am assuming you know the relation obtained between slit width, distance of screen from slits, distance of interference pattern obtained on the screen from the center and the wavelength of monochromatic light used in Young's Double Slit experiment.
λ =\frac{y*d}{D} =  \frac{3.55*10^{-3}*1.25*10^{-4}  }{2.25} = 1.97*10^{-7} m
λ ~ 1.97 ×10⁻⁷m
