Define heat capacity of a substance:
- The heat capacity of a substance can be defined as the amount of heat required to change its temperature by one degree.
Write the S.I unit of heat capacity:
-,-
Answer:
m = 4.4 × 10³ kg
Explanation:
Given that:
The total yearly energy is 4.0 × 10²⁰ J
The amount of mass that provides this energy can be determined by using the formula:
E = mc²
where;
c = speed of light in free space = (3 × 10⁸)
4.0 × 10²⁰ = m × (3 × 10⁸)²
m = 4.4 × 10³ kg
Answer:
v= s/t
Explanation:
250 km/ h =69.44m/s
S1=2 times 69.44 ≈ 139m
Next 2.5 seconds:
S2 = 100m
Average speed:
v=139m+100m/2s+2.5s = 239/4.5s = 53.2 m/s=192km/h
In order to calculate the amount of energy required, we must first check the latent heat of vaporization of water from literature. The latent heat of vaporization of any substance is the amount of energy required per unit mass to convert that substance from a solid to a liquid. For water this is 2,260 J/g. We now use the formula:
Energy = mass * latent heat
Q = 50 * 2,260
Q = 113,000 J
113,000 Joules of heat energy are required.
