Answer: The speed is equivalent to <u>159.39 kilometers per hour </u>or <u>2.65 kilometers per minute.</u>
Explanation:
Given, The speed of a race car = 99 miles/ hour
To convert the speed into kilometers per hour and kilometers per minute
Since 1 mile = 1.61 kilometers
So, Speed of car = (99 ) x (1.61 )
= 159.39 kilometers per hour.
Also, 1 hour = 60 minutes
Then, Speed of car = (159.39) ÷60
= 2.6565≈2.65 kilometer per minute.
Hence, the speed is equivalent to <u>159.39 kilometers per hour </u>or <u>2.65 kilometers per minute.</u>
Answer:
c =0.2 J/g.°C
Explanation:
Given data:
Specific heat of material = ?
Mass of sample = 12 g
Heat absorbed = 48 J
Initial temperature = 20°C
Final temperature = 40°C
Solution:
Specific heat capacity:
It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
ΔT = 40°C -20°C
ΔT = 20°C
48 J = 12 g×c×20°C
48 J =240 g.°C×c
c = 48 J/240 g.°C
c =0.2 J/g.°C
