Answer: it is C

The thermistor

Explanation:

 Thermistors (temperature-sensitive, or thermal, resistors) are used as temperature-measuring devices and in electrical circuits to compensate for temperature variations of other components. They are also used to measure radio-frequency power and radiant power, such as infrared and visible light.

To measure the intensity of the electromagnetic wave after knowing the frequency, we can calculate it by using fast fourier transformations (FFT).

Which of the following is true when an object of mass m moving on a horizontal frictionless surface hits and sticks to an object
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

c)

Explanation:

A collision is said to be elastic when the total kinetic energy is the same after the collision. The speed of objects that are stuck together will always be less than the initial speed of the object that was in motion given that the other particle was at rest. It is because the kinetic energy of the system was due to the moving object. The objects have a greater overall mass when they are stuck. If the kinetic energy is the same and the mass increases, the velocity must decrease.

A circular test track for cars has a circumference of 3.5 kmkm . A car travels around the track from the southernmost point to t
elixir [45]

Answer:

(A) Distance will be equal to 1.75 km

(B) Displacement will be equal to 1.114 km

Explanation:

We have given circumference of the circular track = 3.5 km

Circumference is given by 2\pi r=3.5

r = 0.557 km

(a) It is given that car travels from southernmost point to the northernmost point.

For this car have to travel the distance equal to semi perimeter of the circular track

So distance will be equal to =\frac{3.5}{2}=1.75km

(b) If car go along the diameter of the circular track then it will also go from southernmost point to the northernmost point. and it will be equal to diameter of the track

So displacement will be equal to d = 2×0.557 = 1.114 m

A rocket of mass m is to be launched fromplanet X, which has a mass M and a radius R. What is the minimum speed that the rocket
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The minimum speed = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }

Explanation:

The minimum speed that the rocket must have for it to escape into space is called its escape velocity. If the speed is not attained, the gravitational pull of the planet would pull down the rocket back to its surface. Thus the launch would not be successful.

The minimum speed can be determined by;

                      Escape velocity = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }

where: G is the universal gravitational constant, M is the mass of the planet X, and R is its radius.

If the appropriate values of the variables are substituted into the expression, the value of the minimum speed required can be determined.

A cyclist is moving at a speed of 15 m/s. If the combined mass of the bike and person is 100 kg,
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum is equal to mass times velocity in kg and m/s, respectively. Therefore,

p = 100(15) so

p = 1500 \frac{kg*m}{s}

Two balls are rolling using the same force. Which law explains why the bowling ball will roll a shorter distance than a soccer b
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

newton's 2nd  law

Explanation:

In the first law, an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. In the second law, the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. In the third law, when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction.
