How is thermal energy transferred?

2 answers:

6 0

Heat may be transferred by means of conduction, convection, or radiation. Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy (heat in transfer) due to collisions between the molecules in the object. Collisions between adjacent atoms and molecules transfer kinetic energy from the warmer to the cooler object.

Thermal energy can be transferred in a few ways but friction is a good example, other ways include, radiation, convection, or conduction.

Gravity on Jupiter is 25 m/s/s, what is the weight of a 12 kg object on Jupiter?

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

300 Newtons

Explanation:

Weight is the force of attraction between two bodies, one usually larger (like a planet), and one smaller (like a person). Force can be calculated using the formula: Force = mass × acceleration.

The mass here is 12kg, the acceleration, which in this case, is the acceleration due to gravity is 25m/s/s, by plugging in our values, we have

Force = 12 × 25 = 300 Newtons or 300 N for short.

A boy weighs 40 kilograms. He runs at a velocity of 4 meters per second north. Which is his momentum?

Artist 52 [7]

The formula for momentum is mass times velocity. Simply, we just multiply the given values:
p = mv
p = 40 kg x 4 m/s
p = 160 kg m/s

Other units for momentum is N s.
p = 160 N s

A body moves in a straight line. At time, it's acceleration is given by a = 12t + 1. When t =0, the velocity of the body v is 2

madreJ [45]

Answer:

v = 6t² + t + 2, s = 2t³ + ½ t² + 2t

59 m/s, 64.5 m

Explanation:

a = 12t + 1

v = ∫ a dt

v = 6t² + t + C

At t = 0, v = 2.

2 = 6(0)² + (0) + C

2 = C

Therefore, v = 6t² + t + 2.

s = ∫ v dt

s = 2t³ + ½ t² + 2t + C

At t = 0, s = 0.

0 = 2(0)³ + ½ (0)² + 2(0) + C

0 = C

Therefore, s = 2t³ + ½ t² + 2t.

At t = 3:

v = 6(3)² + (3) + 2 = 59

s = 2(3)³ + ½ (3)² + 2(3) = 64.5

Explanation:

The reading on the scale is

W = m(g + a)

= (77 kg)(9.8 m/s^2 + 2 m/s^2)

= 908.6 N

What change in entropy occurs when a 0.15 kg ice cube at -18 °C is transformed into steam at 120 °c 4.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: The change in entropy of the given process is 1324.8 J/K

Explanation:

The processes involved in the given problem are:

$1.)H_2O(s)(-18^oC,255K)\rightarrow H_2O(s)(0^oC,273K)\\2.)H_2O(s)(0^oC,273K)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(0^oC,273K)\\3.)H_2O(l)(0^oC,273K)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(100^oC,373K)\\4.)H_2O(l)(100^oC,373K)\rightarrow H_2O(g)(100^oC,373K)\\5.)H_2O(g)(100^oC,373K)\rightarrow H_2O(g)(120^oC,393K)$
