Can an object contain heat? Why or why not?

Physics

Stells [14]3 years ago

Every object has thermal energy (better word than heat, since we associate that with high temperatures). This is actually the molecules vibrating, moving a lot. More thermal energy means more vibrating, and thus also expanding in volume.

In an extrasolar planetary system containing a single planet, the parent star is measured to move about its center of mass every
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Orbital Time Period is 24 years

Explanation:

This can be explained by the definition of time period.

Time period can be defined as the time taken by an object to complete one cycle, here, time taken to complete one revolution.

Also, we know that an extra solar planet which is also called as an exo planet is that planet which is outside our solar system and orbits any star other than our sun. The system in consideration is extra solar system with a single planet.

Therefore, the time taken by the parent star to move about its mass center is the orbital time period that is 24 years.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!!<br><br> Joules could be used to measure
lyudmila [28]

All of the above, work is a measurement of energy transfer, in Joules.

Potential energy = Joules

Kinetic energy = Joules

The key thing here is that anything having to do with just energy or energy transfer is measured in joules.

Which condition is necessary for total internal reflection? A. The refracted ray should lie along the boundary of the two media.
g100num [7]

There are two conditions necessary for total internal reflection, which is when light hits the boundary between two mediums and reflects back into its original medium:

Light is about to pass from a more optically dense medium (slower) to a less optically dense medium (faster).

The angle of incidence is greater than the defined critical angle for the two mediums, which is given by:

θ = sin⁻¹(n_{fast}/n_{slow})

Where θ = critical angle, n_{fast} = refractive index of faster medium, n_{slow} = refractive index of slower medium.

Choice C gives one of the above necessary conditions.

When the distance between two stars decreases by one-third, the force between them
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

the force will increase by a factor 2.25

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the two stars is given by:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two stars

r is the distance between the stars

If the distance is decreased by one-third, it means that the new distance is 2/3 of the previous distance

r'=\frac{2}{3}r

So the new force will be

F'=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{(\frac{2}{3}r)^2}=\frac{9}{4} G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}=2.25 F

So, the force will be 2.25 times the previous value.

What is the moment of inertia of an object that rolls without slipping down a 3.5-m- high incline starting from rest, and has a
Daniel [21]

Answer:

I = 0.287 MR²

Explanation:

given,

height of the object = 3.5 m

initial velocity = 0 m/s

final velocity  = 7.3 m/s

moment of inertia = ?

Using total conservation of mechanical energy

change in potential energy will be equal to change in KE (rotational) and KE(transnational)

PE = KE(transnational) + KE (rotational)

mgh = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2

v = r ω

mgh = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{Iv^2}{r^2}

I = \dfrac{m(2gh - v^2)r^2}{v^2}

I = \dfrac{mr^2(2\times 9.8 \times 3.5 - 7.3^2)}{7.3^2}

I =mr^2(0.287)

I = 0.287 MR²
