Answer:
The amount of kilograms of ice at -20.0°C that must be dropped into the water to make the final temperature of the system 40.0°C = 0.0674 kg
Explanation:
Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = Heat lost by the water
Total Heat gained by ice = Heat used by ice to move from -20°C to 0°C + Heat used to melt at 0°C + Heat used to reach 40°C from 0°C
To do this, we require the specific heat capacity of ice, latent heat of ice and the specific heat capacity of water. All will be obtained from literature.
Specific heat capacity of ice = Cᵢ = 2108 J/kg.°C
Latent heat of ice = L = 334000 J/kg
Specific heat capacity of water = C = 4186 J/kg.°C
Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = mCᵢ ΔT + mL + mC ΔT = m(2108)(0 - (-20)) + m(334000) + m(4186)(40 - 0) = 42160m + 334000m + 167440m = 543600 m
Heat lost by water = mC ΔT = 0.25 (4186)(75 - 40) = 36627.5 J
543600 m = 36627.5
m = 0.0674 kg = 67.4 g of ice.
Answer:
a =3.33 m/s²
Explanation:
given,
initial speed of Plane, u = 0 m/s
final speed of plane, v = 60 m/s
time of the acceleration, t = 18 s
average acceleration of the plane, a = ?
average acceleration is equal to change in velocity per unit time.
a =3.33 m/s²
Hence, average acceleration of the plane is equal to a =3.33 m/s²
Answer:
Explanation:
Potential energy, which is the energy a body assumes at a position, can be calculated using the formula:
P.E = m × g × h
Where;
m = mass (kg)
g = acceleration due to gravity (10m/s²)
h = height (m)
Answer:
Emissions from power plants that burn fossil fuels increase atmospheric carbon dioxide, which is absorbed by the ocean.
Explanation:
Fossil fuels are burnt in power plants in order to produce energy. These fossil fuels contain carbon. Combustion of these fossil fuels emits oxides of carbon into the atmosphere. The oxides of carbon are carbon II oxide and carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide can be absorbed by the ocean to form carbonic acid according to the reaction equation;
CO2(aq) + H2O(l) ------> H2CO3(aq)
This is an anthropogenic activity which increases ocean acidification.
