While doing the dishes, you drop an iron skillet that’s very hot (200° C or more) into a sink containing a few inches of water a

t room temperature. Assume the volume of water has about the same mass as the skillet. It’s found that the increase in temperature of the water is much less than the loss in temperature experienced by the skillet. As a matter of fact, after a minute or two, the water feels only slightly warmer than before the skillet was added. Use the space to write a brief explanation of why this is true.

Remember the fact that every object has a specific amount of latent heat of vaporization

The specific heat capacity of iron and water are different

  • They may have same mass but not same specific heat capacity
  • So same amount of temperature can't create same amount of heat .
  • Also water is liquid so heat get transmitted through out the solution.

When blue light of wavelength 460 nm falls on a single slit, the first dark bands on either side of center are separated by 45.0
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

width of slit =1.23× 10⁻⁶ m  

Explanation:

we know the condition of diffraction minima,

d sin θ = n λ

λ = wavelength     θ = angle between the central maxima and 1st  minima

d = slit width

for first minima  n = 1

now,

d =\dfrac{n \lambda}{sin \theta}

\theta = \dfrac{45^0}{2} = 22.5^0

d =\dfrac{1\times 460 \times 10^{-9}}{sin 22.5^0}

d = 1228 × 10⁻⁹ m  = 1.228× 10⁻⁶ m

d =  1.23× 10⁻⁶ m

width of slit =1.23× 10⁻⁶ m
