The power of the kettle was 1.5 kW. The 0.2kg heating element took 5 seconds to heat from 20 °C to 100 °C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of water using this information.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Specific heat capacity, c = 468.75 J/Kg°C

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Power = 1.5 kW to Watts = 1.5 * 1000 = 1500 Watts

Time = 5 seconds

Mass = 0.2 kg

Initial temperature = 20°C

Final temperature = 100°C

To find specific heat capacity;

First of all, we would have to determine the energy consumption of the kettle;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 1500 * 5

Energy = 7500 Joules

Next, we would calculate the specific heat capacity of water.

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

[tex] Q = mcdt[/tex]

Where;

Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat. m represents the mass of an object. c represents the specific heat capacity of water. dt represents the change in temperature.

dt = T2 - T1

dt = 100 - 20

dt = 80°C

Making c the subject of formula, we have;

[tex] c = \frac {Q}{mdt} [/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] c = \frac {7500}{0.2*80} [/tex]

[tex] c = \frac {7500}{16} [/tex]

Specific heat capacity, c = 468.75 J/Kg°C

Explanation:

Yes, I was wrong. Pressure increases as the area decreases.

As per the Figure A, the truck is so heavy and having a greater mass. So, the area of contact between the tyres and the road increases and decreases it's pressure on the road due to the increase in area.

As per the Figure B, You know the nature of Tomato that it is soft and smooth to touch and also lighter mass when it's compared with the truck. As it having a lighter mass, it can be cut through the sharp knife. The area of contact decreases and pressure increases on the vegetables.

When the spacecraft is at the halfway point, how does the strength of the gravitional force on the spaceprobe by Earth compre with the strength

Answers

Solution :

When the spacecraft is at halfway point, the distance from the Earth as well as Mars are same. We have to account the masses of the planets. The gravitational force that is exerted by the Earth is greater because of its combined mass with the space probe.

The mass of Earth is greater than the mass of Mars. Therefore, the force of Earth is more than Mars.

An object 2cm high is placed 3cm in front of a concave lens of focal length 2cm, find the magnification?​

Answers

Answer:

0.4

Explanation:

A concave lens is a diverging lens, so it will always have a negative focal length. Image distance is always negative for a concave lens because it forms virtual images.

From the lens formula;

1/f = 1/u+ 1/v

- 1/2 = 1/3 - 1/v

1/v = 1/3 + 1/2

v= 6/5

v= 1.2 cm

Magnification = image distance/object distance

Magnification = 1.2cm/3cm

This is a recoil problem, which is just another application of the Law of Momentum Conservation. The equation for us is:

[tex][m_av_a+m_ev_e]_b=[m_av_a+m_ev_e]_a[/tex] which, in words, is

The momentum of the astronaut plus the momentum of the piece of equipment before the equipment is thrown has to be equal to the momentum of all that same stuff after the equipment is thrown. Filling in:

[tex][(90.0)(0)+(.50)(0)]_b=[(90.0)(v)+(.50)(-4.0)]_a[/tex]

Obviously, on the left side of the equation, nothing is moving so the whole left side equals 0. Doing the math on the right and paying specific attention to the sig fig's here (notice, I added a 0 after the 4 in the velocity value so our sig fig's are 2 instead of just 1. 1 is useless in most applications).

0 = 90.0v - 2.0 and

2.0 = 90.0v so

v = .022 m/s This is the rate at which he is moving TOWARDS the ship (negative was moving away from the ship, as indicated by the - in the problem). Now we can use the d = rt equation to find out how long this process will take him if he wants to reach his ship before he dies.

The force that the left team pulls with is 1000 N. If the right team's total mass is 300 kg and they accelerate by 1.2 m/s2, what is the force of resistance on the right team

Answers

Answer:

the force of resistance on the right team is 360 N

Explanation:

Given;

force of the left team, = 1000 N

total mass of the right team, m = 300 kg

acceleration of the right team, a = 1.2 m/s²

The force of resistance of the right team is calculated as;

Force = mass x acceleration

Force, F = 300 x 1.2

Force = 360 N

Therefore, the force of resistance on the right team is 360 N

The boiling point of a substance is _72 degree Celsius. This temperature will be equivalent to Kelvin scale is-------.

Answers

Answer:

345 K

Explanation:

Temperature can be defined as a measure of the degree of coldness or hotness of a physical object.

Generally, it is measured with a thermometer and its units are Celsius (°C), Kelvin (K) and Fahrenheit (°F).

Given the following data;

Boiling point = 72°C

To convert the temperature in degree Celsius to Kelvin, we would use the following mathematical expression;

Kelvin = 273 + °C

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Kelvin = 273 + 72

Kelvin = 345 K

Therefore, the temperature of 72°C will be equivalent to 345 K on the Kelvin scale.

Vehicle extrication means removing the vehicle from around someone involved in a fatal collision, when other other ways of exiting is not advised or possible. to stabilize the vehicle you have to deflate all tires by pulling the valve stems.

Ali while driving to school computes the average speed for his trip to be 20km/hr on his return trip along the same route. There is less traffic and average speed is 30km/hr. What is the average speed for Ali's trip?

Answers

Answer:

25 km/hr

Explanation:

Since Ali's average speed for his trip to school is u = 20 km/hr and his average speed for the return trip to back home from school is v = 30 km/hr, thus his total average speed for the journey is thus V = (initial average speed + final average speed)/2 = (u + v)/2

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

V = (u + v)/2

V = (20  km/hr + 30 km/hr)/2

V = 50 km/hr/2

V = 25 km/hr

So, the average speed for Ali's trip is 25 km/hr

Eli states that sodium phosphate is a mixture because it is composed of both sodium ions and phosphate ions. Which is the best analysis of Eli’s statement? It is correct because each ion is a pure substance, so sodium phosphate is made up of two pure substances. It is correct because the composition of sodium phosphate changes depending on the sample. It is incorrect because sodium phosphate is a compound that has a single composition. It is incorrect because the two types of ions in sodium phosphate cannot be seen.

Answer:

It is incorrect because sodium phosphate is a compound that has a single composition

Explanation:

A compound is a neutral substance made up of two or more atoms which are chemically combined together.

Ionic substances are made up of ions. These ions are not separate entities, they are part of the compound.
