We shall consider two properties:
1. Temperature difference
2. Thermal conductivity of the material
Use a cylindrical rod of a given material (say steel) which is insulated around its circumference.
One end of the rod is dipped in a large reservoir of water at 100 deg.C and the other end is dipped in water (with known volume) at 40 deg. C. The cold water if stored in a cylinder which is insulated on all sides. A thermometer reads the temperature of the cold water as a function of time.
This experiment will show that
(a) heat flows from a region of high temperature to a region of lower temperature.
(b) The thermal energy of a body increases when heat is added to it, and its temperature will rise.
(c) The thermal conductivity of water determines how quickly its temperature will rise. If mercury replaces water in the cold cylinder, its temperature will rise at a different rate because its thermal conductivity is different.
Acceleration = force / mass = 20 / 2 = 10 m/s^2
Well when you eat you get energy and then you use it to ride up the hill sorry I don't know how it is classified
Answer:
0.54
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram. There are 5 forces on the desk:
Weight force mg pulling down
Applied force 24 N pushing down
Normal force Fn pushing up
Applied force 130 N pushing right
Friction force Fnμ pushing left
Sum of the forces in the y direction:
∑F = ma
Fn − mg − 24 = 0
Fn = mg + 24
Fn = (22)(9.8) + 24
Fn = 240
Sum of the forces in the x direction:
∑F = ma
130 − Fnμ = 0
Fnμ = 130
μ = 130 / Fn
μ = 130 / 240
μ = 0.54
