When the same masses are heated by the same amount, which of the following substances will heat up the slowest?
DochEvi [55]
When the same masses are heated by the same amount copper will heat up the fastest. Copper is a good conductor of heat that is why it easily heats up. Gold is not a good conductor of heat because of its stable properties.

Find the moment of inertia about each of the following axes for a rod that is 0.360 {cm} in diameter and 1.70 {m} long, with a m
mamaluj [8]

The complete question is;

Find the moment of inertia about each of the following axes for a rod that is 0.36 cm in diameter and 1.70m long, with a mass of 5.00 × 10 ^(−2) kg.

A) About an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through its center in kg.m²

B) About an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through one end in kg.m²

C) About an axis along the length of the rod in kg.m²

Answer:

A) I = 0.012 kg.m²

B) I = 0.048 kg.m²

C) I = 8.1 × 10^(-8) kg.m²

Explanation:

We are given;

Diameter = 0.36 cm = 0.36 × 10^(−2) m

Length; L = 1.7m

Mass;m = 5 × 10^(−2) kg

A) For an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through its center, the formula for the moment of inertia is;

I = mL²/12

I = (5 × 10^(−2) × 1.7²)/12

I = 0.012 kg.m²

B) For an axis perpendicular to the rod and passing through one end, the formula for the moment of inertia is;

I = mL²/3

So,

I = (5 × 10^(−2) × 1.7²)/3

I = 0.048 kg.m²

C) For an axis along the length of the rod, the formula for the moment of inertia is; I = mr²/2

We have diameter = 0.36 × 10^(−2) m, thus radius;r = (0.36 × 10^(−2))/2 = 0.18 × 10^(−2) m

I = (5 × 10^(−2) × (0.18 × 10^(−2))^2)/2

I = 8.1 × 10^(-8) kg.m²

1. For a reaction to occur, energy must be
amm1812

For a reaction to occur, energy must be absorbed to break chemical bonds

<u>Explanation:</u>

Reactions can be classified as chemical reaction, nuclear reaction, thermal reaction. So in these three reaction types, the nature of energy will only be varying.

But in order to execute a reaction, there should be breaking of existing bonds and then formation of new bonds. So for breaking of the bonds of reactants, energy should be absorbed from the surrounding.

Then the extra energy will be released after forming the products. Thus, the process of absorption of energy will lead to endothermic process and the process of releasing of energy will lead to exothermic reaction. So for a reaction to occur, energy must be absorbed to break the chemical bonds.

The image shows the positions of a car on a roller coaster track. Arrange the cars in order based on their gravitational potenti
RideAnS [48]

Correct order, from lowest potential energy to highest potential energy:

E - C - D - B - A

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of the car is given by:

U=mgh

where

m is the car's mass

g is the gravitational acceleration

h is the height of the car relative to the ground

In the formula, we see that m and g are constant, so the potential energy of the car depends only on its height above the ground, h. The higher the car from the ground, the larger its potential energy. Therefore, the position with least potential energy will be E, since the height is the minimum. Then, C will have more potential energy, because the car is at higher position, and so on: the position with greatest potential energy is A, because the height of the car is maximum.
