    Finding the mass of iron using the heat equations

    That's my main issue right now because that is not given to me and I am having a hard time trying to figure how one would do that without the mass being given.

    Finding the mass of iron using the heat equations

    Homework Statement Calculate themass of iron at 100C that causes 20.0 kg of water to change temperature from 16C to 18C. C of iron is 460 J/kg C. The C for water is 4190. [/B]Homework Equations q1+q2=0 q=mct[/B]The Attempt at a Solution q1=-q2 mct=-mct 20(4190)(2)=-m(460)(100) 167600=46000m 3.5=m

    Newton's Laws of Motion (Is my theory correct?)

    Homework Statement If two cars of equal mass are pushed apart by a spring mounted on cart #1 with a force of 14 N what will be the resulting acceleration of the carts. Mass of carts 1 and 2= 2.0Kg f=14N A? Homework Equations F=ma The Attempt at a Solution My theory is that the Newtons will...

    Calculate Car Mass: 19,454 N Force at 201 mph Speed

    Does that indicate that i have to use the gravity of the Earth for the "a" variable and rearrange the equation so that it is m=f/g?

    Calculate Car Mass: 19,454 N Force at 201 mph Speed

    A race car exerts 19,454 N while the car travels at a constant speed of 201 mph, 91.36 m/s. What is the mass of the car? F=m(a) I have no idea how to start this problem; I labelled out my given info but i do not know how to incorporate it into my equation. At first i thought to use kinematic...
