Water has the maximum specific heat capacity of any fluid.

The amount of heat that one gram of a material needs either absorb or lose in order to alter its temperature by a degree Celsius is known as specific heat. This equates to one caloric, or 4.184 Joules, for water.

<h3>High heat capacity: what is it?</h3>
  • Consider the amount of time it takes for a pot to get warm to the touch on the stove as opposed to how long it takes for the water within to warm up.
  • A substance with a high heat capacity may absorb a lot of heat before registering a change in temperature.
<h3>Why does water have the greatest ability to retain heat?</h3>

Although the hydrogen bonds in water are much too weak to be compared to intra - molecular bonds like covalently or ionic bonds, they are nevertheless strong enough to require a lot of energy to break. Water boils at 100°C for this reason.

Many people believe hydrogen bonding is the cause of water's high specific heat.

An electric dipole is formed from ±1.00nC charges spaced 3.00 mm apart. The dipole is at the origin, oriented along the x-axis.
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Value of electric field along the axis and equitorial axis  E=31.25\ N/c and E = 15.625\ N/c respectively.

Explanation:

Given :

Distance between charges , d = 3 \ mm =\dfrac{3}{1000}\ m=3\times 10^{-3}\ m.

Magnitude of charges , q=1\ nC = 10^{-9}\ C.

Dipole moment , p=qL=10^{-9}\times 3\times 10^{-3}=3\times 10^{-12} \ C\ m.

Case A) (x,y) = (12.0 cm, 0 cm) :

Electric field of dipole in its axis ,

E=\dfrac{2kp}{r^3}

Putting all values and r=12\times 10^{-2}\ m.

We get , E=31.25\ N/c.

Case B) (x,y) = (0 cm, 12.0 cm) :

Electric field of dipole on equitorial axis ,

E = \dfrac{kp}{r^3}

Putting all values and r=12\times 10^{-2}\ m.

We get , E = 15.625\ N/c.

Hence , this is the required solution.

Explain why objects moving in fluids must have special shapes ?
Alexus [3.1K]

Explanation:

Fluids exert both drag and lift forces on moving objects.  Drag is the frictional force opposing motion.  Lift is the force perpendicular to motion.

Some objects, like parachutes, are designed with large cross sectional areas to increase drag force.  Usually though, objects are designed to minimize drag force.  It's why cars, planes, and boats have sleek shapes.

Airplane wings have shapes called airfoils that generate lift.  It's what makes them fly.  The same shape is found in racecar spoilers.  These spoilers use lift force to push down on the rear tires, increasing traction.

PLEASE ANYONE SOLVE THIS NOW FAST PLEASE IM IN A HURRY
m_a_m_a [10]

Hello,

<u>Solution for A:</u>

Force = 3.00N

Mass = 0.50 Kgs

Time = 1.50 Seconds

According to newton's second law of motion;

Force = Mass times Acceleration(a)

3.00 = 0.50 * a

a = 3.00/0.50 = 6.00 m/s^2

We know that acceleration = Velocity / time

So Velocity = time * acceleration = 1.50 * 6 = 9.00 m/s^2

<u>Solution for B:</u>

The net force = 4.00N - 3.00N = 1.00N to the left

Force = 1.00N

Mass = 0.50Kg

Time = 3.00 Seconds

Again; F = MA (Where F is force, M is mass and A is acceleration)

1.00N = 0.5 * A

A = 1/0.5 = 2 m/s^2

Velocity = Acceleration * Time = 2 * 3 = 6 m/s
