A steel casting weighing 2 kg has an initial temperature of 500°c; 25 kg of water initially at 25°c is contained in a perfectly

insulated steel tank weighing 5 kg. the casting is immersed in the water and the system is allowed to come to equilibrium. what is its final temperature? ignore the effects of expansion or contraction, and assume constant specific heats of 4.18 kj⋅kg−1⋅°c−1 for water and 0.50 kj⋅kg−1⋅°c−1 for steel.

Result:

26.6C

Rationale:

Employing a balance of energy:

The drop in internal energy of the casting must result in an increase in the internal energy of both the tank and the water, assuming that there is no heat loss from the tank as it is perfectly insulated.

m_{casting}*C_{p,casting}*(T_{casting} - T_{final})= m_{water}*C_{p,water}*(T_{final} - T_{water}) + m_{tank}*C_{p,tank}*(T_{final} - T_{tank})

2*0.5*(500 - T_{final})= 70*4.18*(T_{final} - 25) + 5*0.5*(T_{final} - 25)\\\\(1+2.5+292.6)*T_{final} = 500+7315+62.5\\\\T_{final} = 26.6C

<span> The strategy involves using Q = m · c · ΔT three times. The temperature change for the hot casting is ΔT_hot = 500°C - Tf, and for the cold water and steel tank, it’s ΔT_cold = Tf - 25°C. We equate the heat lost from the hot casting during cooling to the heat gained by the cold tank during heating.
m_cast · c_steel · ΔT_hot = (m_tank · c_steel + m_water · c_water) · ΔT_cold

m_cast · c_steel · (500°C - Tf) = (m_tank · c_steel + m_water · c_water) · (Tf - 25°C)

2.5 kg · 0.50 kJ/(kg K°) · (500°C - Tf) = (5 kg · 0.50 kJ/(kg K°) + 40 kg · 4.18 kJ/(kg K°)) · (Tf - 25°C)

Solve for Tf, noting that K° = C° (for ΔT's).</span>

Softa [3030]

The answer is

-Small f and large D.

The explanation:

-A car jack acts as a machine, defined as an apparatus that aids individuals in exerting force more easily.

-Hence, by applying a small force to the jack, the height at which the car is elevated increases.

Machines are essential for people to amplify their strength; without them, lifting a car would be impossible.

Employing leverage or hydraulic principles, machines enhance your exerted force.

Utilizing a greater lever allows for extensive movement with minimal force, resulting in the opposite side moving shorter distances with an increased force.

Maru [3345]

Answer:

Explanation:

Each of the processes connected to these molecules varies.

For instance, water that has accumulated in the atmosphere returns to the ground as rain. Cows utilize this water from local water sources. This represents one method in which water transitions from the atmosphere to the cow's body.

Regarding carbon and nitrogen, the air inhaled by cows contains nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and other gases. These molecules enter the cow through respiration.

A student wishes to determine the heat capacity of a coffee-cup calorimeter. After she mixes 108.7 g of water at 60.2°C with 108
Ostrovityanka [3204]

Answer: The calorimeter's heat capacity is 6.72J/g^oC

Explanation:

This scenario assumes the amount of heat lost by the hot object equals the amount of heat gained by the cold object.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat capacity of water = 4.184J/g^oC

c_2 = specific heat capacity of calorimeter =?

m_1 = mass of water = 108.7 g

m_2 = mass of calorimeter = 108.7 g

T_f = final temperature of the mixture = 35.0^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of the water = 60.2^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of calorimeter = 19.3^oC

Now substituting all provided values into the formula, we obtain

(108.7g)\times (4.184J/g^oC)\times (35.0-60.2)^oC=-(108.7g)\times c_2\times (35.0-19.3)^oC

c_2=6.72J/g^oC

Hence, the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 6.72J/g^oC

A particle moves according to a law of motion s = f(t), t ≥ 0, where t is measured in seconds and s in feet. f(t) = 0.01t4 − 0.0

Since you've completed parts a and b, I will tackle part c.
For part C
To respond to this question, we must identify the zeros of the velocity function:
v(t)=0.04t^3-0.06t^2
This polynomial can be factored:
v(t)=0.04t^3-0.06t^2=t^2(0.04t-0.06)
Finding the zeros now becomes straightforward since the function equals zero when any factor is zero.
t^2=0;\\ 0.04t-0.06=0
By solving these equations, we identify our zeros:
t_1=0; t_2=\frac{3}{2}
The particle remains stationary at t=0 and t=3/2.
For part D
We must discover when the velocity function exceeds zero. We will utilize its factored form.
We will assess when each factor is greater than zero and compile the findings in the following table:
\centering \label{my-label} \begin{tabular}{lllll} Range & -\infty & 0 & 3/2 & +\infty \\ t^2 & - & + & + & + \\ 0.04t-0.06 & - & - & + & + \\ t^2 (0.04t-0.06) & + & - & + & + \end{tabular}
From the table, it's evident that our function is positive when - \infty < t and t>3/2.
This indicates the interval during which the particle moves forward.
For part E
The distance traveled can be represented as:
s(t)=0.01t^4 - 0.02t^3
We simply substitute t=12 to calculate the total distance traveled:
s(12)=0.01(12)^4 - 0.02(12)^3=172.80 ft
For part F
Acceleration is defined as the rate at which velocity changes.
We determine acceleration by deriving the velocity function concerning time.
a(t)=\frac{dv}{dt}=(0.04t^3-0.06t^2)'=0.12t^2-0.12t
To find the acceleration at 1 second, we substitute t=1s into the previous equation:
a(1)=0.12-0.12=0
