Answer:

34.17°C

Explanation:

Given:

mass of metal block = 125 g

initial temperature $T_i$ = 93.2°C

We know

$Q = m c \Delta T$ ..................(1)

Q= Quantity of heat

m = mass of the substance

c = specific heat capacity

c = 4.19 for H₂O in $J/g^{\circ}C$

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature

Now

The heat lost by metal = The heat gained by the metal

Heat lost by metal = $125\times 0.9\times (93.2-T_f)$

Heat gained by the water = $100\times 4.184\times(T_f -18.3)$

thus, we have

$125\times 0.9\times (93.2-T_f)$ = $100\times 4.184\times(T_f -18.3)$

$10485-112.5T_f = 418.4T_f - 7656.72$

⇒ $T_f = 34.17^oC$

Therefore, the final temperature will be = 34.17°C

What is the concentration of H^ + at apH = 2 ? Mol / L What is the concentration of H^ + ions at apH = 6 ? Mol/L How many more H

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

The concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 2 : $= [H^+]=0.01 mol/L$

The concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 6 : $[H^+]'=0.000001 mol/L$

There are 0.009999 more moles of $H^+$ ions in a solution at a pH = 2 than in a solution at a pH = 6.

Explanation:

The pH of the solution is the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration in an aqueous solution.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

The hydrogen ion concentration at pH is equal to 2 = [H^+]

$2=-\log [H^+]\\$

$[H^+]=10^{-2}M= 0.01 M=0.01 mol/L$

The hydrogen ion concentration at pH is equal to 6 = [H^+]

$6=-\log [H^+]\\\\$

$[H^+]=10^{-6}M= 0.000001 M= 0.000001 mol/L$

Concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 2 = $[H^+]=0.01 mol/L$

Concentration of hydrogen ion at pH is equal to 6 = $[H^+]'=0.000001 mol/L$

The difference between hydrogen ion concentration at pH 2 and pH 6 :

$= [H^+]-[H^+]' = 0.01 mol/L- 0.000001 mol/L = 0.009999 mol/L$

Moles of hydrogen ion in 0.009999 mol/L solution :

$=0.009999 mol/L\times 1 L=0.009999 mol$

There are 0.009999 more moles of $H^+$ ions in a solution at a pH = 2 than in a solution at a pH = 6.

It is given that an<span> airplane is flying through a thundercloud at a height of 2000 m.
</span><span>
Since the parity of charges is opposite and the airplane lies between the two charges and both the electric fields are in the same direction at the plane. Therefore, the magnitudes of the electric field at the aircrafts will add up.
Now, check the image to see the calculations:

On sunday a strong gale blows near beth’s house. the best estimate for the wind speed is ____ miles/hour.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

B. 47-54 miles/hour

Explanation:

Gale is a strong wind which is depicted by red warning flag. According to U.S. National Weather Service gale is a sustained surface wind. It is also used to refer winds from tropical coastal areas.

On the basis of force of wind gale is divided in four groups:

Near gale - 32-38 mph
Gale - 39-46 mph
Strong gale - 47-54 mph
Storm - 55-63 mph

You plan to take a trip to the moon. Since you do not have a traditional spaceship with rockets, you will need to leave the eart

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

$v = 3.5 \times 10^5 m/s$

Explanation:

At some distance from the Earth the force of attraction due to moon is balanced by the force due to Moon

so we will have

$\frac{GM_em}{r^2} = \frac{GM_m}{(d-r)^2}$

now we have

$\frac{d - r}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{M_m}{M_e}}$

$\frac{3.844\times 10^8 - r}{r} = \sqrt{\frac{7.36 \times 10^{22}}{5.9742\times 10^{24}}}$

so we will have

$r = 3.46 \times 10^8 m$

Now by energy conservation

$-\frac{GM_e}{R_e} - \frac{GM_m}{d - (R_e + R_m)} + \frac{1}{2}v^2 = -\frac{GM_e}{r} - \frac{GM_m}{d - r}$

$-6.26 \times 10^{8} - 13046 + \frac{1}{2}v^2 = -1.15 \times 10^6 - 1.28 \times 10^5$

$v = 3.5 \times 10^5 m/s$
