A 248-g piece of copper is dropped into 390 mL of water at 22.6 °C. The final temperature of the water was measured as 39.9 °C.

Calculate the initial temperature of the piece of copper. Assume that all heat transfer occurs between the copper and the water. Remember, the density of water is 1.0 g/m

Answer:

335°C

Explanation:

Heat gained or lost is:

q = m C ΔT

where m is the mass, C is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Heat gained by the water = heat lost by the copper

mw Cw ΔTw = mc Cc ΔTc

The water and copper reach the same final temperature, so:

mw Cw (T - Tw) = mc Cc (Tc - T)

Given:

mw = 390 g

Cw = 4.186 J/g/°C

Tw = 22.6°C

mc = 248 g

Cc = 0.386 J/g/°C

T = 39.9°C

Find: Tc

(390) (4.186) (39.9 - 22.6) = (248) (0.386) (Tc - 39.9)

Tc = 335

A flashlight beam makes an angle of 60 degrees with the surface of the water before it enters the water. in the water what angle

<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

= 22°

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • According to Snell's law, the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction is a constant. The constant value is called the refractive index of the second medium with respect to the first.
  • Therefore; Sin i/Sin r = η

In this case; Angle of incidence = 90° -60° =30°, angle of refraction =? and η = 1.33

Thus;

Sin 30 / Sin r = 1.33

Sin r = Sin 30°/1.33

       = 0.3759

r = Sin^-1 0.3759

   = 22.08

   <u>≈ 22°</u>

sergejj [24]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Below is the answer:

sum of Mc = 0 = -Ay(4.2 + 3cos(59)) + (275)(2.1 + 3cos(59)) + M 
<span>- Ay = (M + (275*(2.1 + 3cos(59)))/(4.2 + 3cos(59)) </span>

<span>sum of Ma = 0 = (-275)(2.1) - Cy(4.2 + 3cos(59)) + M </span>
<span>- Cy = (M - (275*2.1))/(4.2 + 3cos(59)) </span>

<span>Ay + Cy = 275 = ((M+1002.41)+(M-577.5))/(5.745) </span>
<span>= (2M + 424.91)/(5.745) </span>

<span>M = ((275*5.745) - 424.91)/2 </span>
<span>= 577.483 which rounds off to 577 </span>

<span>Is it maybe supposed to be Ay - Cy = 275</span>

The boom hoisting sheave must have pitch diameters of no less than _______times the nominal diameter of the rope used.
alexira [117]

Answer:

18 times

Explanation:

According to the security purposes which is set under the rules and regulation OSHA, which describes all the rights to the worker.

In the boom hoist receiving system all the sheaves which are used should have a pitch diameter of rope not less than 18 times the diameter of the nominal rope which is used.

Of waterfalls with a height of more than 50 m , Niagara Falls in Canada has the highest flow rate of any waterfall in the world.
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Power output: W=1426.9MW

Explanation:

The power output of the falls is given mainly by its change in potential energy:

Q=-P_{tot}=-(P_{2}-P_{1})

The potential energy for any point can be calculated as:

P=m*g*h

If we consider the base of the falls to be the reference height, at point 2 h=0, so P2=0, and height at point 1 equals 52m:

Q=P_{1}=m*g*h

If we replace m with the mass rate M we obtain the rate of change in potential energy over time, so the power generated:

W=M*g*h=2.8*10^{3}m^{3}/s*1*10^{3}kg/m^{3}*9.8m/s^{2}*52m =1426.9MW
