You should note that the melting point of mercury is -38.83°C, while the boiling point is at 356.7°C. Then, that means that there is no latent heat involved here. We only compute for the sensible heat.
ΔH = mCpΔT
The Cp of mercury is 0.14 J/g·°C
Thus,
ΔH = (411 g)(0.14 J/g·°C)(88 - 12°C)
<em>ΔH = 4,373.04 J</em>
Answer:
Δu=1300kJ/kg
Explanation:
Energy at the initial state

Is saturated vapor at initial pressure we have

Process 2-3 is a constant volume process

The overall in internal energy
Δu=u₁-u₃
We replace the values in equation
Δu=u₁-u₃

Δu=1300kJ/kg
the electric conductivity of gold is very high
Because the elevator moves at a constant speed, it's in equilibrium and the net force acting on it is zero. Then the tension in the cable exactly equals the magnitude of the elevator's weight, which is
(3000 kg) (9.80 m/s²) = 29,400 N
