The initial temperature is 137.34 °C.
<u>Explanation:</u>
As the specific heat formula says that the heat energy required is directly proportional to the mass and change in temperature of the system.
Q = mcΔT
So, here the mass m is given as 23 kg, the specific heat of steel is given as c = 490 J/kg°C and the initial temperature is required to find with the final temperature being 140 °C. Also the heat energy required is 30,000 J.
ΔT =
ΔT =
Since the difference in temperature is 2.66, then the initial temperature will be
Final temperature - Initial temperature = Change in temperature
140-Initial temperature = 2.66
Initial temperature = 140-2.66 = 137.34 °C
Thus, the initial temperature is 137.34 °C.
The residential end-use sector has the largest seasonal variance, with significant spikes in demand every summer and winter. Virtually all homes that have air conditioning use electricity as the main source of cooling in the summer, while winter heating needs are met by a variety of fuels. Some homes use electric resistance heating and electric heat pumps, but even homes with other heating fuels such as natural gas or fuel oil still use some electricity to power furnace fans, boiler circulation pumps, and compressors.
The commercial sector experiences less variance in electricity use, although it shows a noticeable increase in the summer and a slight increase in the winter. Compared to the residential sector, a smaller portion of commercial sector energy consumption is devoted to heating, cooling, and ventilation. However, other energy fuels beyond electricity can be used in the commercial sector to meet both heating and cooling needs. For example, some commercial buildings use natural gas-fired chillers for cooling.
The industrial sector's demand for electricity is relatively flat (with just a slight increase in the summer) because a much smaller portion of its energy consumption (electric and otherwise) is used for heating and cooling. Economic variables generally play a larger role in industrial energy use than weather-related factors. However, seasonal changes can affect industrial activity. For example, in the refining industry, different seasonal slates of petroleum products as well as different seasonal processes may affect electricity needs.
Wait a second shoudl YOU do this one cause this is more of a YOU how am i suppose to know who you like?
i could give you a scientist just try albert Einstein
74 is the answer u find it by subtracting the protons(atomic number) from atomic mas, so basically... 127-53 =74 neutrons
