When the temperature of 0.50 kg of water decreases by 22 °C, the energy transferred to the surroundings from the water is -46.2 kJ.

A sample of 0.50 kg of water boils (reaches 100 °C). After a while, its temperature decreases by 22 °C.

We can calculate the energy transferred to the surroundings from the water in the form of heat (Q) using the following expression.

Q = c \times m \times \Delta T = \frac{4200J}{kg.\° C}  \times 0.50kg \times (-22\° C) \times \frac{1kJ}{1000J} = -46.2 kJ

where,

  • c: specific heat capacity of water
  • m: mass of water
  • ΔT: change in the temperature

When the temperature of 0.50 kg of water decreases by 22 °C, the energy transferred to the surroundings from the water is -46.2 kJ.

Please can someone solve this physics question with a good explenation.
zimovet [89]

Answer:

The coefficient of dynamic friction is 0.025.

Explanation:

Given:

Initial speed after the push is 'v' as seen in the graph.

Final speed of the stone is 0 m/s as it comes to rest.

Total distance traveled is, D=29.8\ m

Total time taken is, t_{total}=17.5\ s

Time interval for deceleration is 3.5 to 17.5 s which is for 14 s.

Now, average speed of the stone is given as:

v_{avg}=\frac{D}{t_{total}}=\frac{29.8}{17.5}=1.703\ m/s

Now, we know that, average speed can also be expressed as:

v_{avg}=\frac{v_i+v_f}{2}\\1.703=\frac{v+0}{2}\\v=2\times 1.703=3.41\ m/s

Now, from the graph, the vertical height of the triangles is, v=3.41\ m/s

The deceleration is given as the slope of the line from time 3.5 s to 17.5 s.

Therefore, deceleration is:

a=\frac{\textrm{Vertical height}}{\textrm{Time interval}}\\a=\frac{v-0}{17.5-3.5}\\a=\frac{3.41}{14}=0.244\ m/s^2

Frictional force is the net force acting on the stone. Frictional force is given as:

f=\mu_dN\\Where, \mu_d\rightarrow \textrm{coefficient of dynamic friction}\\N\rightarrow \textrm{Normal force}\\N=mg\\\therefore f=\mu_dmg

Now, from Newton's second law, net force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

Therefore,

\mu_dmg=ma\\\mu_d=\frac{a}{g}

Plug in 0.244 for 'a' and 9.8 for 'g'. This gives,

\mu_d=\frac{a}{g}=\frac{0.244}{9.8}=0.025

Therefore, the coefficient of dynamic friction is 0.025.

A 95-kg astronaut is stranded from his space shuttle. He throws a 2-kg hammer away from the shuttle with a velocity of 19 m/s .
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The astronaut will be propelled towards the shuttle at the rate of 0.4 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of  the astronaut, m₁ = 95 kg

mass of the hammer thrown, m₂ = 2 kg

velocity of the hammer, v₂ = 19 m/s

let the recoil velocity of the shuttle = v₁

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

v₁ = m₂v₂/m₁

v₁ = (2 x 19) / 95

v₁ = 0.4 m/s

Therefore, the astronaut will be propelled towards the shuttle at the rate of 0.4 m/s.

When finding net force, why must you know the directions of the forces acting on an object?
Mariulka [41]
<h3>One reason we should know what the directions of the forces acting on an object is so we can know if we have to add or subtract. same = add together, opposite = subtract from each other. Also if we don't pay attention to the direction the Net force will be wont be accurate. There will be factors that will upset the calculation.So we must know the direction of the two forces because we have to know if we are adding or subtracting and if the answer is accurate. </h3>
