Approximately of steam at (assuming that the boiling point of water in this experiment is .)
Explanation:
Latent heat of condensation/evaporation of water: .
Both mass values in this question are given in grams. Hence, convert the specific heat values from this question to .
Specific heat of water: .
Specific heat of copper: .
The temperature of this calorimeter and the of water that it initially contains increased from to . Calculate the amount of energy that would be absorbed:
.
.
Hence, it would take an extra of energy to increase the temperature of the calorimeter and the of water that it initially contains from to .
Assume that it would take grams of steam at ensure that the equilibrium temperature of the system is .
In other words, of steam at would need to release as it condenses (releases latent heat) and cools down to .
Latent heat of condensation from of steam: .
Energy released when that of water from the steam cools down from to :
.
These two parts of energy should add up to . That would be exactly what it would take to raise the temperature of the calorimeter and the water that it initially contains from to .
.
Solve for :
.
Hence, it would take approximately of steam at for the equilibrium temperature of the system to be .
This is because the drag force suffered by the aircraft is proportional to the speed at which it travels. The thrust of the engines prints a speed to the plane and this speed prints a drag force, always reaching an equilibrium point of these two forces where the speed of the plane is constant and the acceleration is equal to zero.
Therefore, by reducing the thrust, the drag force is greater and the plane begins to decrease its speed, until it reaches the point where the new drag force is matched with the new thrust force, giving it a new final speed , without acceleration.
When it is directed at a mirror it is reflected When it is directed at a glass block it refracts When it is directed through a prism the light splits to form a spectrum ( red orange yellow green blue indigo and violet )
