Answer:

Because of the knowledge of <u>relative size</u>, it will be assumed that the smaller jetliner is farther away.

Explanation:

According to the theory of relative size, the distance that an object has to the viewing individual affects the perception of the individual regarding the size of the object.

As stated in this case, one of the jetliners is farther away from the other. Therefore, even if the jets are of equal size, the one that is at a greater distance is perceived to be smaller as it is at a greater viewing range. The one that is nearer to the individual seems bigger in comparison to the one farther away due to a closer viewing range.

Therefore, the jet that is nearer appears larger.

One hundred turns of insulated copper wire are wrapped around an iron core of cross-sectional area 0.100m2. As the magnetic fiel
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The voltage induced in the coil  is 1.25 V.

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns, N = 100 turns

cross sectional area of the copper coil, A = 0.1 m²

initial magnetic field, B₁ = 0.5 T

final magnetic field, B₂ = 1.00 T

duration of change in magnetic field, dt = 4 s

The induced emf in the coil is calculated as;

emf = -N\frac{\delta \phi}{\delta t} \\\\emf = - N (\frac{\delta B}{\delta t}) A\\\\emf = -N (\frac{B_1 -B_2}{\delta t} )A\\\\emf = N(\frac{B_2-B_1}{\delta t} )A\\\\emf = 100(\frac{1-0.5}{4} )0.1\\\\emf = 1.25 \ Volts

Therefore, the voltage induced in the coil  is 1.25 V.

Earl is using his hands to hold a metal pan 10 centimeters above a hot burner. How can this scenario be changed to demonstrate c
Olenka [21]

Answer: touch the pan to the burner

Explanation:

There are three modes of heat transfer:

conduction, convection and radiation.  

For conduction, the heat transfers from a hot object to a cold object when the two are in contact.

For convection there is bulk motion of fluid occurs which transfers the heat.

For heat transfer by radiation, medium is not required.

Thus, to demonstrate conduction between pan and burner, the pan must touch the burner.

13) The condenser pressure is 417.4 psig for r-410A and the condenser outlet temperature is 108f. how much subcooling is there i
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

12°F

Explanation:

Calculation for how much subcooling is there in the condenser

Since the CONDENSING TEMPERATURE for 417.4 psig discharge pressure is 120 degrees (120°) which means that the amount of subcooling that is there in the condenser will be calculated using this formula

Amount of Condenser subcooling= Condensing Temperature discharge pressure -Condenser outlet temperature

Let plug in the formula

Amount of Condenser subcooling=120°-108f

Amount of Condenser subcooling=12°F

Therefore the amount of subcooling that is there in the condenser will be 12°F

During the internal examination, the pathologist drains the intestines, removes any undigested food and feces, and examines the contents of the stomach. This examination could give the pathologist clues of the time of death, and the location of death.  The process of digesting and defecation vary from person to person, the entire process is generally considered to take approximately 40 hours in adults
