Properties Of Solids And Liquids Question 599

Question: A hammer of mass 1kg having speed of 50 m/s, hit a iron nail of mass 200 gm. If specific heat of iron is 0.105 cal/gm$ {}^\circ C $ and half the energy is converted into heat, the raise in temperature of nail is

Options:

A) $ 7.1{}^\circ C $

B) $ 9.2{}^\circ C $

C) $ 10.5{}^\circ C $

D) $ 12.1{}^\circ C $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

$ W=JQ $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ \frac{1}{2}( \frac{1}{2}Mv^{2} )=J(m.c.\Delta \theta ) $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ \frac{1}{4}\times 1\times {{(50)}^{2}}=4.2[200\times 0.105\times \Delta \theta ] $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ \Delta \theta =7.1{}^\circ C $
