Alexxandr [17]2 years ago
3 0

The ice melts because Thermal energy from Jan’s hand is transferred to the ice.

<h3>What is thermal energy?</h3>

Thermal energy is the energy due to temperature difference.

Thermal energy flows from hotter to colder bodies.

The ice Jan is holding melts because heat is transferred from his hands t the ice.

In conclusion, thermal energy flow causes melting.

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Explanation:

On both sides of the film , the mediums have lower refractive index.

for interfering pattern from above , for constructive interference of reflected wave from both sides of the film , the condition is

2μt = ( 2n +1 ) λ / 2

μ is refractive index of film ,t is thickness of film λ is wavelength of light

n is order of fringe

for minimum thickness

n = 0

2μt =  λ / 2

t =  λ / 4μ

= 670 / 1.75 x 4

= 95.71 nm .

a particle with a charge of 5.5 x 10^-8 c is 3.5 cm from a particle with a charge of -2.3 x10^-8 c. the potential energy of this
Yuri [45]

Answer:

-32.5 * 10^-5 J

Explanation:

The potential energy of this system of charges is;

Ue = kq1q2/r

Where;

k is the Coulumb's constant

q1 and q2 are the magnitudes of the charges

r is the distance of separation between the charges

Substituting values;

Ue = 9.0×10^9 N⋅m2/C2 * 5.5 x 10^-8 C *( -2.3 x10^-8) C/(3.5 * 10^-2)

Ue= -32.5 * 10^-5 J
