Answer: 66 cal

Explanation:

The Heat energy required to flow into a unit mass object to raise its temperature by 1 degree is known as specific heat capacity.

It is given by:

Q = m c ΔT

where, m is the mass, c is the specific heat capacity and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Given:

specific heat capacity of aluminum, c = 0.22 cal/g°C

mass of aluminium, m = 20.0 g

Change in temperature, ΔT = 15°C

⇒Q = 20.0 g × 0.22 cal/g°C × 15°C = 66 cal

The amount of energy that needs to flow into 20.0 grams of aluminum to change its temperature by 15°C is 66 cal.

A laser beam is incident at an angle of 30.2° to the vertical onto a solution of corn syrup in water. (a) If the beam is refract

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

a) n2 = 1.55

b) 408.25 nm

c) 4.74*10^14 Hz

d) 1.93*10^8 m/s

Explanation:

a) To find the index of refraction of the syrup solution you use the Snell's law:

$n_1sin\theta_1=n_2sin\theta_2$ (1)

n1: index of refraction of air

n2: index of syrup solution

angle1: incidence angle

angle2: refraction angle

You replace the values of the parameter in (1) and calculate n2:

$n_2=\frac{n_1sin\theta_1}{sin\theta_2}=\frac{(1)(sin30.2\°)}{sin18.82\°}=1.55$

b) To fond the wavelength in the solution you use:

$\frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}\\\\\lambda_2=\lambda_1\frac{n_1}{n_2}=(632.8nm)\frac{1.00}{1.55}=408.25nm$

c) The frequency of the wave in the solution is:

$v=\lambda_2 f_2\\\\f_2=\frac{v}{\lambda_2}=\frac{c}{n_2\lambda_2}=\frac{3*10^8m/s}{(1.55)(408.25*10^{-9}m)}=4.74*10^{14}\ Hz$

d) The speed in the solution is given by:

$v=\frac{c}{n_2}=\frac{3*10^8m/s}{1.55}=1.93*10^8m/s$

If you lift two loads up one story, how much work do you do compared to lifting just one load up one story?

Daniel [21]

Answer:a

Explanation:

We have to lift the load two loads up one story, so energy required is

let m be the mass of each load and h is the height of each story

Energy $E_1=2\times m\times g\times \h$

$E_1=2mgh$

Here energy gained is the potential energy which depends upon the datum(floor).

For lifting one load up one story

Energy required

$E_2=mgh$

thus $E_2$ is half of $E_1$

So option a is correct

A 4.2-m-diameter merry-go-round is rotating freely with an angular velocity of 0.79 rad/s . Its total moment of inertia is 1790

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

$w_2=0.467rad/s$

Explanation:

Four people standing on the ground each of mass and usually this questions have to find the final angular velocity

$m_t=4*70kg=280kg$

The radius $r=4.2/2=2.1m$

Angular velocity $w_1=0.79rad/s$

The moment of inertia total is $I_t=1790 kg/m^2$

Momento if inertia

$I_1=m_t*r^2$

$I_1=280kg*(2.1m)^2=1234.8kg*m^2$

Angular momentum

$I_1*w_1=I_t*w_2$

Solve to w2

$w_2=\frac{I_1*w_1}{I_t}$

$w_2=\frac{1790kg*m^2*0.79rad/s}{3024.8kg*m^2}$

$w_2=0.467rad/s$
