Ice has a specific heat of 2.093Jg ∘C, liquid water's specific heat is 4.184Jg ∘C, and steam has a specific heat of 1.864Jg ∘C.

Which phase of water will have the lowest temperature change upon heating, when the same amount of heat is applied to each?

Answer:

The liquid phase will have the lowest temperature change upon heating.

Explanation:

Assuming no phase change due to heating, we know that the temperature change, is proportional to the mass heated, being the proportionality constant  a quantity that depends on the material, and represents the resistance of the material to change the temperature, called specific heat.

So, if we assume that the mass is the same for the three phases, and that the amount of heat supplied is also the same,the phase with the highest specific heat will have the lowest temperature change.

So, the liquid phase will be the one that exhibits this behavior, as the specific heat of liquid water (4.184 J/gºC) is the highest among the three phases.

lozanna [386]

Answer:

option (b)

Explanation:

According to the Pascal's law

F / A = f / a

Where, F is the force on ram, A be the area of ram, f be the force on plunger and a be the area of plunger.

Diameter of ram, D = 20 cm, R = 20 / 2 = 10 cm

A = π R^2 = π x 100 cm^2

F = 3 tons = 3000 kgf

diameter of plunger, d = 3 cm, r = 1.5 cm

a = π x 2.25 cm^2

Use Pascal's law

3000 / π x 100 = f / π x 2.25

f = 67.5 Kgf

Ron fills a beaker with glycerin (n = 1.473) to a depth of 5.0 cm. if he looks straight down through the glycerin surface, he wi
Tju [1.3M]

By law of refraction we know that image position and object positions are related to each other by following relation

\frac{\mu_1}{h_o} = \frac{\mu_2}{h_i}

here we know that

\mu_1 = 1.473

h_o = 5 cm

\mu_2 = 1

now by above formula

\frac{1.473}{5} = \frac{1}{h_i}

h_i = 3.39 cm

so apparent depth of the bottom is seen by the observer as h = 3.39 cm

A student states that 203.9 g of table sugar will form a saturated solution in 100 g of water.
riadik2000 [5.3K]

The temperature and the solubility of sugar at that temperature

Explanation:

The amount of substance which can be dissolved in the solvent depends on the temperature.

As the temperature increases, more substance can be dissolved.

A solution is  saturated if any more of the solute cannot be dissolved in the solution at the given temperature

Hence we need to know the temperature  and also the amount of substance which can be dissolved(solubility) at the same temperature

a) the statement given in option A is correct

b) molar mass has no correlation with the substance's solubility and hence option b is not correct

c) The percent by volume of the solution is not needed to find if the solution is saturated and hence option c is not correct

The air surrounding an airplane in flight exerts a drag force that acts opposite to the airplane's motion. When an Airbus A380 i
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

4.32\cdot 10^5 hp, 3.22\cdot 10^8 W

Explanation:

The jet is flying at constant velocity: this means that its acceleration is zero, so the net force acting on the jet is also zero.

Therefore, we can write:

4F_T - F_d = 0

where

F_T = 322,000 N is the thrust force generated by each engine of the jet

F_d is the drag force

Solving for Fd,

F_d = 4 F_T = 4(322,000)=1.288\cdot 10^6 N

The velocity of the jet is

v=250 m/s

So, the rate at which the drag force does work (which is the power) is

P=F_d v

and substituting

F_d = 1.288\cdot 10^6 N\\v = 250 m/s

we find

P=(1.288\cdot 10^6)(250)=3.22\cdot 10^8 W

Converting into horsepower,

P=\frac{3.22\cdot 10^8}{746}=4.32\cdot 10^5 hp
