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.

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The resulting magnetic force on the wire is -1.2kN

Explanation:

The magnetic force on a current carrying wire of length 'L' with current 'I' in a magnetic field B is

F = I (L*B)

Finding (L * B) , where L = (2, 0, 0)m , B = (30, -40, 0)

L x B = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\2&0&0\\30&-40&0\end{array}\right] = (0, 0, -80)

we can now solve

F = I (L x B) = I (-80)

F = -1200 kmN

F = -1200 kN * 10⁻³

F = -1.2kN

4. Identify Problems A student is describing a longitudinal wave in his notebook. He
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

 "The distance between crests is 3 cm." 

Explanation:

If he writes down "The distance between crests is 3 cm." 

That means he is describing the wavelength of a wave and not longitudinal wave. He ought to write something about " direction "

Longitudinal waves are waves in which the displacement of the medium is in the same direction as, or parallel to, the direction of propagation of the wave. While

Wavelength is the distance between the two successfully Crest or trough

A soccer ball is kicked horizontally off a bridge with a heigh of 36m. The ball travels 25m horizontally before it hits the pave
kow [346]

Answer:

The initial velocity was U=22.14m/s

Explanation:

Step one :

Applying the third equation of motion

v² = u²+ 2as

Where v= Final velocity

U =initial velocity

a= acceleration due to gravity

S= distance or displacement

Step two :

V= 0

a= 9.81m/s²

S=25m

U=?

Step three :

Substituting into the equation we have

0²=U²+2*9.81*25

0=U²+490.5

U²=-490.5

U=√490.5

U=22.14m/s

A car travels from point A to point B, moving in the same direction but with a non-constant speed. The first half of the distanc
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

From A to B

distance traveled with velocity v_1  in time t_1

\frac{d}{2}=v_1t_1----1

from B to C

distance traveled is 0.5 d with v_2  and v_3  velocity for half-half time

\frac{d}{2}=\frac{v_2t_2}{2}+\frac{v_3t_3}{2}----2

divide 1 and 2 we get

\frac{1}{1}=\frac{2v_1t_1}{v_2t_2+v_3t_3}

\frac{t_1}{t_2}=\frac{v_2+v_3}{2v_1}

Now average velocity is given by

v_{avg}=\frac{d}{t_1+t_2}

taking t_1  common

v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1t_1}{t_1(1+\frac{t_2}{t_1})}

v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1}{1+\frac{2v_1}{v_2+v_3}}

v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1(v_2+v_3)}{2v_1+v_2+v_3}
