$m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T)$

For this case, if we try to find the final temperature of A and B, we see that we will obtain an expression in terms of specific heats and masses, from the information given we know the relationship between specific heats, but we don't know the relationship that exists among the masses, then the best option for this case is:

d) More information is needed

(The relation between the masses is not given)

Explanation:

For this case we know the following info:

$c_{pA} c_{pB}$

Where c means specific heat for the substance A and B.

We also know that the initial temperatures for both sustances are equal:

$T_{iA}= T_{iB}$

We assume that we don't have melting or vaporization in the 2 substances. So we just have presence of sensible heat given by this formula:

$Q = m c_p \Delta T$

And for this case we know that Both A and B are at the same initial temperature when equal amounts of energy are added to them, so then we have this:

Q_A = Q_B

And if we replace the formula for sensible heat we got:

$m_A c_{pA} \Delta T_A = m_B c_{pB} \Delta T_B$

And if we replace for the change of the temperature we got:

$m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T_{iA}) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T_{iB})$

And since $T_{iA}= T_{iB}= T$ we have this:

$m_A c_{pA} (T_{fA} -T) = m_B c_{pB} (T_{fB}- T)$

d) More information is needed

(The relation between the masses is not given)

the answer for apex is the lowest

Answer from: Quest

it's when something is going so fast it makes a loud noise, breaking the sound barrier, for example: a jet makes a loud noise, not only cause of the jet but because they reached a point where they went so fast that you can year the noise from various parts, kinda like a police car, lets say the car was going so fast that you hear the siren of the cop car right next to you, but the car is probably a mile a way, it's cos the siren was next to you a few seconds if you understand me
