The amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a 2kg object from 15°C to 25°C is 34000J.

HOW TO CALCULATE SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY:

The amount of heat absorbed by an object can be calculated by using the following expression:

Q = m.c.∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released (J)
m = mass of object
c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)
∆T = change in temperature (°C)

According to this question, 2 kg object has a specific heat capacity of 1,700J/kg°C and was raised from a temperature of 15 Celsius to 25 Celsius. The heat absorbed is calculated as follows:

Q = 2 × 1700 × {25 - 15}

Q = 3400 × 10

Q = 34000J

Therefore, the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a 2kg object from 15°C to 25°C is 34000J.

An airplane is traveling 25° west of north at 300 m/s when a wind with velocity 100 m/s directed 35° east of north begins to blo

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The resultant velocity is 360.5 m/s and direction 79° north of east.

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of airplane = 300 m/s

Velocity of wind = 100 m/s

Angle θ₁ = 25°

Angle θ₂ =35°

The horizontal velocity component

Using formula of velocity

$v_{x}=v_{1}\cos\theta-v_{2}\cos\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{x}=300\cos65-100\cos55$

$v_{x}=69.42\ m/s$

The vertical velocity component

Using formula of velocity

$v_{y}=v_{1}\sin\theta+v_{2}\sin\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{y}=300\sin65+100\sin55$

$v_{y}=353.8\ m/s$

We need to calculate the resultant velocity

Using formula of resultant velocity

$v=\sqrt{v_{x}^2+v_{y}^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\sqrt{69.42^2+353.8^2}$

$v=360.5\ m/s$

We need to calculate the direction of the resultant velocity

Using formula of direction

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{v_{y}}{v_{x}}$

Put the value into the formula

$\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{353.8}{69.42})$

$\theta=79^{\circ}$

Hence, The resultant velocity is 360.5 m/s and direction 79° north of east.

A sphere has surface area 1.25 m2, emissivity 1.0, and temperature 100.0°C. What is the rate at which it radiates heat into empt

Yuri [45]

The total power emitted by an object via radiation is:
$P=A\epsilon \sigma T^4$
where:
A is the surface of the object (in our problem, $A=1.25 m^2$
$\epsilon$ is the emissivity of the object (in our problem, $\epsilon=1$ )
$\sigma = 5.67 \cdot 10^{-8} W/(m^2 K^4)$ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant
T is the absolute temperature of the object, which in our case is $T=100^{\circ} C=373 K$

Substituting these values, we find the power emitted by radiation:
$P=(1.25 m^2)(1.0)(5.67 \cdot 10^{-8}W/(m^2K^4)})(373 K)^4=1371 W = 1.4 kW$
So, the correct answer is D.
