The change in temperature is simply 50 / (9/5) = 27.777. We just throw out the 32 from the formula

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

b) It is impossible to tell without knowing the masses.

Explanation:

The temperature change of a substance when it receives/gives off a certain amount of heat Q is given by

\Delta T= \frac{Q}{m C_s}

where

Q is the amount of heat

m is the mass of the substance

Cs is the specific heat capacity of the substance

In this case, we have a hot piece of aluminum in contact with a cold piece of copper: the amount of heat given off by the aluminum is equal to the amount of heat absorbed by the copper, so Q is the same for the two substances. However, we see that the temperature change of the two substances depends on two other factors: the mass, m, and the specific heat, Cs. So, since we know only the specific heat of the two substances, but not their mass, we can't tell which object will experience the greater temperature change.

Answer:

Horizontal component: F_x = 58\ N

Vertical component: F_y = 33.5\ N

Explanation:

To find the horizontal and vertical components of the force, we just need to multiply the magnitude of the force by the cosine and sine of the angle with the horizontal, respectively.

Therefore, for the horizontal component, we have:

F_x = F * cos(angle)

F_x = 67 * cos(30)

F_x = 58\ N

For the vertical component, we have:

F_y = F * sin(angle)

F_y = 67 * sin(30)

F_y = 33.5\ N

So the horizontal component of the tension force is 58 N and the vertical component is 33.5 N.

An electric heater draws a steady current = 20.0 A on a 120-V line. (a) Calculate how much power does it require.
babymother [125]

Answer:

The heater power required is 2400 W. The power in the heater can be calculated as the product of the voltage line and the steady current:

P=V.I

P=120 V * 20 A = 2400 VA = 2400 W
