Distinguish between thermal energy, temperature, and heat. (BE SPECIFIC & use physics vocabulary)
xz_007 [3.2K]

Thermal energy can be defined as specific thermodynamic quantities as a part of energy transfer such as heat, which is a form of thermal energy flowing from hotter to colder objects. Temperature is a physical property of an object which specify whether the subject is hot or cold.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Difference between thermal energy, temperature and heat

<u>Thermal Energy</u>

Thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of molecules bundled up in the object. This energy is the heat exerted by the object which forms its temperature.

<u>Temperature</u>

In technical terms, temperature is the average kinetic energies measurement of molecules and atoms, present in an object. Simply, we can say, temperature defines how hot or how cold is a substance. Temperature relies on the kinetic energy of particles.

<u>Heat</u>

Transfer of thermal energy from a hotter to colder objects. Heat is different from temperature. Temperature is the mark to define how hot a substance is whereas, heat is the flow of thermal energy.

The positions of four objects as a function of time are shown
KengaRu [80]

There is no movement in line C and the greatest velocity occurs at line D. The answers are:

1. 0.5 m/s

2. 0.25 m/s

3. 14m and -2m

4. -1 m/s

<h3>What is Position - time Graph ?</h3>

Position time graph is the graph of distance or displacement against time. The slope of the graph is velocity.

The given positions of four objects as a function of time are shown

on the graph to the right.

1.) The velocity of object A will be the slope m of the line A.

Slope m = Δx / Δt

m = (4 - 0) / (8 - 0)

m = 4 / 8

m = 0.5 m/s

Velocity at A = 0.5 m/s

2.) The average velocity of object B will be the slope m of the line B.

Slope m = Δx / Δt

m = (6 - 4) / (8 - 0)

m = 2 / 8

m = 0.25 m/s

The average velocity of object B is 0.25s

3.) The object moved a total distance during the first eight seconds will be 4m for A, 2m for B, and 8m for D

Total distance = 4 + 2 + 8 = 14m

It’s net displacement during the same time will be 2. That is,

Displacement = 8 - 6 = -2m

4.) The greatest speed occurred at line D. The velocity of the object moving at the greatest speed will be the slope of the line D

V = -Δx / Δt

V = -8/8

V = -1 m/s

Therefore, there is no movement in line C and the greatest velocity occurs at line D.

The highest waterfall in the world is the Salto Angel in Venezuela. Its longest single falls has a height of 807 m. If water at
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Temperature at the bottom will be 19.18°C

Explanation:

We have given height h = 807 m

Temperature at the top =17.3^{\circ}C

Specific heat of water c = 4200 J/kg/^{\circ}C

From energy conservation

Kinetic energy at the bottom = potential energy at the top

So mc\Delta T=mgh

\Delta T=\frac{gh}{c}=\frac{9.8\times 807}{4200}=1.88^{\circ}C

So temperature at the bottom = 17.3+1.88 = 19.18°C

Discuss the difference between waveform graphs and vibration graphs​
Kitty [74]

Difference exists mainly in the label for x axis.

Explanation:

  • Shapes of waveform and vibration graphs are same.
  • Vibration graphs shows the particle at a single location in the path of the wave when time passes.
  • Waveform graphs shows the particle at multiple locations at a single moment of time.
