How many joules of heat energy are required to raise the temperature of 10kg of water from 22⁰C to 27⁰C? (The Specific Heat Capacity of water is 4200 Jkg^-1⁰C^-1)

Heat energy Q = mass of substance m X SHC of substance C X change in temperature ΔT Q = 10kg X 4200Jkg^-1⁰C^-1 X (27-22)⁰C Q = 10kg X 4200Jkg^-1⁰C^-1 X 5⁰C Q=210,000J = 210kJ 210 kilojoules of energy is r...

Solve 6x^2-13x=5

To be able to solve a quadratic, you must make it equal to zero. So the first thing you have to do is take away 5 from both sides. You could take away 6x^2-13x from each side, but it is much easier to kee...

How do I find the equation of the tangent of a curve at a specific point.

The gradient is the rate of change at a specific point on the curve. Since the tangent is a straight line that touches the curve only once at a specific point, the gradient of the curve and the tangent wi...

Use the substitution u = 6 - x^2 to find the value of the integral of (x^3)/(sqrt(6-x^2)) between the limits of x = 1 and x = 2 (AQA core 3 maths

When integrating by substitution the first thing to do is change the limits of the integral by subbing them into the equation for u. This gives

u = 5 as the lower limit and

u = 2 for the upp...

Which food chain has the highest proportion of energy transfer. Grass -> cow -> human. Grass -> grasshopper -> rat -> snake. Rice -> human

Rice -> human. due to it having the fewest trofic levels (stages in the food chain) with each trofic level energy is lost through heat and movement as well as energy lost due to unabsorbtion in the dig...
