A scientist is attempting to determine the specific heat of a new alloy of mass 0.12 kg. It isheated to 100 °C, then placed in a brass calorimeter. The mass of the calorimeter is 0.5 kg atan initial temperature of 34 °C. The calorimeter contains water of mass 0.25 kg at the sametemperature. The equilibrium temperature of 75 °C is reached.a.Write an equation to describe the transfer of energy, using Q = mcAT.b. Write the equation with the speçific heat capacity of the alloy as the subject of theformula.Given that the specific heat.capacity of water is 4.19 x 10° J/kg°C and theс.calorimeter has a specific heat capacity of brass is 380 J/kg°C. What is the specificheat capacity of the alloy?

Luis and Salman are trying to increase the temperature of a substance by heating it. . What is the quantity of heat in kilojoules required to raise the temperature of 1.2 kg of the substance from3°C to 110 °C at a pressure of 1.0 atm? Please keep three significant figures. Useful information: Melting point = 293 K heat of fusion = 3.90 x 104 J/kg. boiling point is 423 K heat of vaporization 7.80 x 104 J/kg (at a pressure of 1.0 atm). The specific heats for the solid phase is 600 J/(kg K) The specific heats for the liquid phase is 1000 J/(kg K) The specific heats for the gaseous phase is 400 J/(kg K)
When working on a PHYS 1510 weekly assignment, a student decided to get a medium double double coffee from Tim Hortons (a coffee made with two creams and two sugars). After drinking it, the student looked up the nutritional value of the drink, and was shocked to find it was listed as 230.0 kcal (230.0 nutritional calories). After drinking the coffee, they weighed 87.88 kg. To work off all the calories, the student decides to climb the stairs in their building. How many floors do they need to climb to burn off the entire drink? (do not include units) Assume all floors are 3.00 m apart from each other. Assume all nutritional energy is fully converted to potential energy. 1 kcal = 4184 J

Heat Q, which has the SI unit of joule (J), is the quantity in mechanical engineering that describes the transit of energy from one location to another. The equation for the flow of heat during the time interval At through an insulated wall is KAAT Q = (Тh — T) where k is the thermal conductivity of the material from which the wall is made, A and L are the wall's area and thickness, and Th – T; is the difference (in degrees Celsius) between the high- and low-temperature sides of the wall. By using the principle of dimensional consistency, what is the correct dimension for thermal conductivity in the SI? The lowercase Greek character kappa (K) is a conventional mathematical symbol used for thermal conductivity. Appendix A summarizes the names and symbols of Greek letters. О a.
