A potato and raisins salad has been warmed up to a temperature of 80∘C and let it stand for three minutes. Then one tries a bite. 1) Would the potatoes and raisins be equally warm? Potatoes have a specific heat of 3430 J/(kg⋅∘C). Raisins have a specific heat of 1630 J/(kg⋅∘C).

No. Potatoes will be warmer.

Explanation:

where,

Q = heat taken

m = mass of substance

c = specific heat of substance = ?

ΔT = change in temperature

As we are given that the potatoes have a specific heat of 3430 J/(kg⋅∘C) and raisins have a specific heat of  1630 J/(kg⋅∘C). It implies that substance take more heat when higher the value of specific heat i.e more warmer will be the substance. Thus, the potatoes will be more warmer as compared to raisins.

Therefore, No. Potatoes will be warmer.

radiation

explanation:

heat is transmitted by radiation

  distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

  slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

  comparing both the equations

    change in value of y -axis = change in position

  change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.
