If 5.0 kJ of energy is added to a 15.5-g sample of water at 10.°C, the water is?
a. decomposed.

b. boiling.

c. frozen solid.

d. completely vaporized.

e. still a liquid.

e. The water is still a liquid.

Explanation:

We know that the thermal energy added to an object is related to its temperature by the formula:

Solving for the final temperature T, we obtain:

Since the specific heat of water is c=4.186J/g°C and 5.0kJ=5000J, we get that the final temperature is:

As the boiling point of water (at sea level) is 100°C, and that temperature is not reached, then the correct answer is e. The water is still a liquid.

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
