Answer:
Artificial silk or art silk is any synthetic fiber which resembles silk, but typically costs less to produce.
Explanation:
The area of the rectangle plus the area of the triangle under the line .-.
Answer:
Explanation:
To calculate the momentum of a moving object multiply the mass of the object times its velocity. The symbol for momentum is a small p. So, the momentum of the object is calculated to be 8.0 kg-m/s. Note the unit for momentum.
Answer:
Approximately
assuming no heat exchange between the mixture and the surroundings.
Explanation:
Consider an object of specific heat capacity
and mass
. Increasing the temperature of this object by
would require
.
Look up the specific heat of water:
.
It is given that the mass of the water in this mixture is
.
Temperature change of the water:
.
Thus, the water in this mixture would have absorbed :
.
Thus, the energy that water absorbed was:
.
Assuming that there was no heat exchange between the mixture and its surroundings. The energy that the water in this mixture absorbed,
, would be the opposite of the energy that the metal in this mixture released.
Thus:
(negative because the metal in this mixture released energy rather than absorbing energy.)
Mass of the metal in this mixture:
.
Temperature change of the metal in this mixture:
.
Rearrange the equation
to obtain an expression for the specific heat capacity:
. The (average) specific heat capacity of the metal pieces in this mixture would be:
.
