What is temperature? how temperature can be measured​

Physics
1 answer:
german1 year ago
3 0

Answer:

Temperature is the kinetic energy of the particles of a substance.

Explanation:

The more kinetic energy a particle has the higher it's temperature. In the case of the atmosphere, which is what we are primarily concerned with in Meteorology, we measure this using a mercury thermometer (in certain situations we use an alcohol thermometer and of course modern times have given us things like dewcells and digital thermometers but we always go back to the mercury thermometer for accuracy).

a car travels at 15 m/s for 10 s. It then speeds up with a constant acceleration of 2.0 m/s? for 15 s. At the end of this time,
Firlakuza [10]

V = u + at where u is initial velocity (15 m/s), a is acceleration (2m/s^2) and t is time (15 seconds)

V = 15 + 2 X 15

V = 45 m/s

A car drives for 30 km with a speed of 30m/s. How much time does it take the car to travel this distance?
Artist 52 [7]

                   Time  =  (distance)  /  (speed)

                           =  (30 km)  /  (30 m/s)

                           =  (30,000 m)  /  (30 m/s)

                           =  (30,000 / 30)  sec

                           =      1,000 seconds

                           =      16 minutes  40 seconds

Find the magnitude of the electric field due to a charged ring of radius "a" and total charge "Q", at a point on the ring axis a
34kurt

Answer:

E=\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}

Explanation:

We are given that

Charge on ring= Q

Radius of ring=a

We have to find the magnitude of electric filed on the axis at distance a from the ring's center.

We know that the electric field at distance x from the center of ring of radius R is given by

E=\frac{kQx}{(R^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}

Substitute x=a and R=a

Then, we get

E=\frac{KQa}{(a^2+a^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}

E=\frac{KQa}{(2a^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}

E=\frac{KQa}{2\sqrt 2a^3}

E=\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}

Where K=9\times 10^9 Nm^2/C^2

Hence, the magnitude of the electric filed due to charged ring on the axis of ring at distance a from the ring's center=\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}

A set of charged plates 0.00262 m apart has an electric field of 155 N/C between them. What is the potential difference between
mylen [45]

Answer: The potential difference between the plates = 0.4061V

Explanation:

Given that the

Electric field strength E = 155 N/C

Distance d = 0.00262 m

From the definition of electric field strength, is the ratio of potential difference V to the distance between the plates. That is

E = V/d

Substitute E and d into the above formula

155 = V/0.00262

Cross multiply

V = 155 × 0.00262

V = 0.4061 V

The potential difference between the plates is 0.4061 V
