Explanation:

pv=nRT

1×20=（273+120）×0.0082×N

2×25=（273+T)×0.082×N

(273+T)=1965/2

An ice rescue team pulls a stranded hiker off a frozen lake by throwing him a rope and pulling him horizontally across the essen

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:T=116.84 N

Explanation:

Given

Weight of hiker =1040 N

acceleration $a=1.1 m/s^2$

Force exerted by Rope is equal to Tension in the rope

$F_{net}=T=ma_{net}$

$T=\frac{1040}{g}\times 1.1$

$T=116.84 N$

A 125-g metal block at a temperature of 93.2 °C was immersed in 100. g of water at 18.3 °C. Given the specific heat of the metal

Nataly_w [17]

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
