Consider 500 g of silver (atomic mass 107 g/mol). Assume that the temperature is high enough that equipartition applies. We heat

the silver by immersing it in water; by measuring the temperature change of the water we compute that 300 J of heat energy entered the silver.
What was the change in temperature of the silver?

A. 2.57 K
B. 0.6 K
C. 4.99 K
D. 169 K
E. 0.0466 K

Answer:

A. 2.57 K

Explanation:

From specific heat capacity,

Q = cmΔT........................ Equation 1

Where Q = Amount of heat that entered into silver, m = mass of silver, c = specific heat capacity of silver, ΔT = change in temperature of the silver.

make ΔT the subject of the equation

ΔT = Q/cm................... Equation 2

Given: Q = 300 J, m = 500 g = 0.5 kg

Constant: c = 233 J/kg.K

Substitute into equation 2

ΔT = 300/(0.5×233)

ΔT  = 300/116.5

ΔT = 2.57 K

Hence the right option is A. 2.57 K

For a particular reaction, the change in enthalpy is 51kJmole and the activation energy is 109kJmole. Which of the following cou
Ronch [10]

Answer

given,

change in enthalpy = 51 kJ/mole

change in activation energy = 109 kJ/mole

when a reaction is catalysed change in enthalpy between the product and the reactant does not change it remain constant.

where as activation energy of the product and the reactant decreases.

example:

ΔH = 51 kJ/mole

E_a= 83 kJ/mole

here activation energy decrease whereas change in enthalpy remains same.

dexar [7]

Answer:

t = 25 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance, d = 115 m

Initial speed, u = 4.2 m/s

Final speed, v = 5 m/s

We need to find the time taken in increasing the speed.

We know that,

Acceleration, a=\dfrac{v-u}{t} ....(1)

The third equation of kinematics is as follows :

v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\\text{Put the value of a in above equation}\\\\v^2-u^2=2\times \dfrac{v-u}{t}\times d\\\\\because (a^2-b^2)=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\(v-u)(v+u)=\dfrac{2\times (v-u)d}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{2d}{v+u}\\\\\text{Putting all the values}\\\\t=\dfrac{2\times 115}{4.2+5}\\\\t=25\ s

Hence, it will take 25 seconds to increase the speed.

the millersburg ferry (m=13000.0 kg loaded) puts its engines in full reverse and stops in 65 seconds. if the speed before brakin
kenny6666 [7]

The braking force is -400 N

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the impulse theorem, which states that the impulse applied on the ferry (the product of force and time) is equal to its change in momentum:

F \Delta t = m(v-u)

where in this problem, we have:

F is the force applied by the brakes

\Delta t = 65 s is the time interval

m = 13,000 kg is the mass of the ferry

u = 2.0 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity

And solving for F, we find the force applied by the brakes:

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}=\frac{(13000)(0-2.0)}{65}=-400 N

where the negative sign indicates that the direction is backward.

Jim stands beside a wide river and wonders how wide it is. he spots a large rock on the bank directly across from him. he then w
LuckyWell [14K]

To solve this problem, we must imagine that Jim’s initial position, the position of the rock, and Jim’s final position all connects to form a triangle. Now we can imagine that the triangle is a right triangle with the 90° angle on the initial position.

The angle of 30° is directly opposite to the length of his total stride while the width of the river is the side adjacent to the angle. Therefore can use the tan function to solve for the width of the river:

tan θ = opposite side / adjacent side

tan 30 = total stride distance / width of river

where total stride distance = 65 * 0.8 = 52 m

width of river = 52 m / tan 30

<span>width of river = 90.07 m</span>

Un cable está tendido sobre dos postes colocados con una separación de 10 m. A la mitad del cable se cuelga un letrero que provo
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

El peso del cartel es 397,97 N

Explanation:

La tensión dada en cada segmento del cable = 2000 N

El desplazamiento vertical del cable = 50 cm = 0,5 m

La distancia entre los polos = 10 m

La posición del letrero en el cable = En el medio = 5

El ángulo de inclinación del cable a la vertical = tan⁻¹ (0.5 / 5) = 5.71 °

El peso del letrero = La suma del componente vertical de la tensión en cada lado del letrero

El peso del signo = 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) + 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) = 397.97 N

El peso del signo = 397,97 N.
