Answer:

When the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.

What is specific heat capacity?

Specific heat capacity is the quantity

of heat required to raise a unit mass of

a substance by 1 kelvin.

Specific heat capacity of water and sand

{<em>refer to the above attachment}</em>

Δθ = Q/mc

Thus, for an equal mass of water and sand, when the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.

A scientist notices that an oil slick floating on water when viewed from above has many different rainbow colors reflecting off
Semenov [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

In case of oil slick a thin layer of oil is formed on water . This thin layer creates a rainbow of colour . The phenomenon is due to interference of light waves , one reflected from the upper surface of oil and the other reflected from the lower surface of the oil.

For formation of bright colour

2 μ t = ( 2n + 1 ) λ / 2

μ is refractive index of oil ,  t is thickness of oil layer  λ is wave length of light falling on the layer .

given μ = 1.2 ,   λ = 750 x 10⁻⁹   ,

2 x 1.2 t = ( 2n + 1 ) 750 x 10⁻⁹ / 2

For minimum thickness n = 0

2.4 t = 375 x 10⁻⁹

t = 156.25 n m

B ) If the refractive index of layer of medium below oil is less than that of oil , the condition of formation of colour changes

The new condition is

2 μ t = n λ

2  x 1.5 t  = 750 nm ,         n = 1 for minimum wavelength .

t = 250 nm

C ) Light mostly transmitted means dark spot is formed at that point .

For that to be observed from water side , the condition is

2 μ t = ( 2n + 1 ) λ / 2

λ = 4μ t / ( 2n + 1 )

For maximum wavelength n = 0

λ = 4μ t

= 4 x 1.5 x 200 nm

= 1200 nm .

Using the formula 1/2 (m x v2), what is the kinetic energy of a 4 kg rock falling through the air at 5 m/s
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

KE = 50J

Explanation:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} \\\\ KE = \frac{1}{2}(4)(5)^{2} \\\\ KE = 2(25) \\\\ KE = 50J

A block is attached to the end of a horizontal ideal spring and rests on a frictionless surface. The block is pulled so that the
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The answer is "a, c and b"

Explanation:

  • Its total block power is equal to the amount of potential energy and kinetic energy.
  • Because the original block expansion in all situations will be the same, its potential power in all cases is the same.
  • Because the block in the first case has no initial speed, the block has zero film energy.
  • For both the second example, it also has the v_o velocity, but the kinetic energy is higher among the three because its potential and kinetic energy are higher.
  • While over the last case the kinetic speed is greater and lower than in the first case, the total energy is also higher than the first lower than that of the second.
  • The greater the amplitude was its greater the total energy, therefore lower the second, during the first case the higher the amplitude.
