A quantity of hot water at 100oC is added to 400g of water at 10oC until the temperature of the mixture is 60oC.
Calculate the mass of the hot water added. [Specific heat capacity of water =4200JKg-1 K-1]

A.

200g

B.

320g

C.

400g

D.

500g

Correct answer is D

Heat lost by hot water = Heat gained by cold water

M x 4200 x (100 - 60 = 0.4 x 4200 x (60 - 10)

4200m x 40 = 0.4 x 4200 x 50

40m = 0.4 x 50

m = 0.4×5040 = 0.5kg

= 500g

The diagram above illustrates a block ans tackle pulley system in which an effort E supports a load of 100.0N. If the efficiency of the machine is 75%, calculate the value of E

A.

22.2N

B.

38.0N

C.

67.0N

D.

75.0N

Correct answer is A

Given; VR = 6, e = 75%, MA = ?

e = MAVR×1001

MA =75×610

MA = 92

MA = LE=100E

92=100E

9E = 100

E = 2009

= 22.2N
