(a) How many kilograms of water must evaporate from a 60.0-kg woman to lower their body temperature by 0.750ºC?

Physics

Mrrafil [7]4 years ago

Answer:

69.69 g

Explanation:

Evaporation of water will take out latent heat of vaporization.  Let the mass of water be m and latent heat of vaporization of water be 2260000 J per kg

Heat taken up by evaporating water

= 2260000 x m J

Heat lost by body

= mass x specific heat of body x drop in temperature

60 x 3500 x .750  ( specific heat of human body is 3.5 kJ/kg.k)

= 157500 J

Heat loss = heat gain

2260000 m= 157500

m = .06969 kg

= 69.69 g

Vlada [557]
The people living around the equator experience acceleration. Acceleration is the change in speed or/and direction. When on a rotating body, the speed does not change it is only the direction that changes as it rotates.When on a rotating body you do not have to change speed but only direction. In a normal situation when you are traveling on a circle you will never have a straight line.

A hypodermic needle consists of a plunger of circular cross-section that slides inside a hollow cylindrical syringe. when the pl
Blababa [14]
The fluid that is being passed through the syringe and needle is incompressible, which means that it will transmit pressure equally. Therefore, the pressure on the plunger will be equivalent to the pressure on the needle. We also know that:

Pressure = Force / Area

Pressure on plunger = 4 / (π*(0.012/2)²)
Pressure on plunger = 35.4 kPa
Pressure on needle = 35.4 kPa

35.4 kPa = F / (4 / (π*(0.0025/2)²)
F = 0.17 N

The force on the needle is 0.17 N

What is the frequency of a wave whose wavelength is 0.7m and whose velocity is 120m/s?
ANEK [815]

Answer:

f=171.43Hz

Explanation:

Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time.

The frequency formula is: f=v÷λ, where <em>v</em> is the velocity and <em>λ</em> is the wavelength.

Then replacing with the data of the problem,

f=\frac{120\frac{m}{s} }{0.7m}

f=171.43\frac{1}{s}

f=171.43 Hz (because \frac{1}{s} = Hz, 1 hertz equals 1 wave passing a fixed point in 1 second).
