Explain how convection currents transfer heat in the atmosphere\

-----------------------

hot air rises as it is less dense than cold.

=> convection currents eg sea breezez

A solid sphere has a radius of 0.200 m and a mass of 150.0 kg. how much work is required to get the sphere rolling with an angul

Allisa [31]

Here in this case we can use work energy theorem

As per work energy theorem

Work done by all forces = Change in kinetic Energy of the object

Total kinetic energy of the solid sphere is ZERO initially as it is given at rest.

Final total kinetic energy is sum of rotational kinetic energy and translational kinetic energy

$KE = \frac{1}{2}Iw^2 +\frac{1}{2} mv^2$

also we know that

$I = \frac{2}{5}mR^2$

$w= \frac{v}{R}$

Now kinetic energy is given by

$KE = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mR^2)w^2 +\frac{1}{2} m(Rw)^2$

$KE = \frac{1}{5}mR^2w^2 +\frac{1}{2} mR^2w^2$

$KE = \frac{7}{10}mR^2w^2$

$KE = \frac{7}{10}*150*(0.200)^2(50)^2$

$KE = 10500 J$

Now by work energy theorem

Work done = 10500 - 0 = 10500 J

So in the above case work done on sphere is 10500 J

You want the current amplitude through a 0.450-mH inductor (part of the circuitry for a radio receiver) to be 1.90 mA when a sin

faust18 [17]

Answer:

Frequency required will be 2421.127 kHz

Explanation:

We have given inductance $L=0.450H=0.45\times 10^{-3}H$

Current in the inductor $i=1.90mA=1.90\times 10^{-3}A$

Voltage v = 13 volt

Inductive reactance of the circuit $X_l=\frac{v}{i}$

$X_l=\frac{13}{1.9\times 10^{-3}}=6842.10ohm$

We know that

$X_l=\omega L=2\pi fL$

$2\times 3.14\times f\times 0.45\times 10^{-3}=6842.10$

f = 2421.127 kHz

What is the relationship between thermal energy and conduction convection and radiation

lapo4ka [179]

The higher the thermal energy the faster the conduction convection and radiation take place as the particles have more kinetic (movement) energy

A 0.58 kg mass is moving horizontally with a speed of 6.0 m/s when it strikes a vertical wall. The mass rebounds with a speed of

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

$5.8\; {\rm kg\cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}$ .

Explanation:

If the mass of an object is $m$ and the velocity of that object is $v$ , the linear momentum of that object would be $m\, v$ .

Assume that the initial velocity of the mass is positive ( $6.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ .) However, the direction of the velocity is reversed after the impact. Thus, the sign of the new velocity of the object would be negative- the opposite of that of the initial velocity. The new velocity would be $(-4.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})$ .

Thus, the change in the velocity of the mass would be:

$\begin{aligned}& (\text{Change in Velocity}) \\ =\; & (\text{Final Velocity}) - (\text{Initial Velocity}) \\ =\; & (-4.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) - (6.0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\ =\; & (-10\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1})\end{aligned}$ .

The change in the linear momentum of the mass would be:

$\begin{aligned} & \text{change in momentum} \\ =\; & (\text{mass}) \times (\text{change in velocity}) \\ =\; & 0.58\; {\rm kg} \times (-10\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\ =\; & (-5.8\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}})\end{aligned}$ .

Thus, the magnitude of the change of the linear momentum would be $5.8\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-1}}$ .
