The temperature of the water getting colder would cause the liquid in the thermometer to drop due to less heat being transferred from the water to the liquid, so the liquid molecules are closer than when they have high energy.

quester [9]

Answer:

5.88×10⁸ W

Explanation:

Power = energy / time

P = mgh / t

P = (m/t) gh

P = (1.2×10⁶ kg/s) (9.8 m/s²) (50.0 m)

P = 5.88×10⁸ W

V125BC [204]

Answer:

"The wavelengths are the same for both. The width of slit 1 is larger than the width of slit 2."

Explanation:

The full question has not been provided, so I just copied this into the web and found this answer and explanation on quizlet:

"The wavelengths are the same for both. The width of slit 1 is larger than the width of slit 2.

D sin θ = m λ

if the wavelengths are the same, then if the angle is smaller, the slit width must be larger. The top photo shows a pattern that is more closely spaced. That means the angle is smaller. The slit width must be larger."

This answer/explanation should be correct, as we are looking at bright fringes and the formula being used corresponds to the parameters of the question.

Hope this helps!

Determine which heat transfers below are due to the process of conduction. I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns y
Rudik [331]

I) You walk barefoot on the hot street and it burns your toes.

The road is in direct contact with your skin. Thermal energy from the road will transfer to the bottom of your feet, then to the rest of your body. This is an example of conduction.


II) When you get into a car with hot black leather in the middle of the summer and your skin starts to get burned.

Just like in the previous example, the hot leather is in direct contact with your skin (I guess if you're going to drive naked). Thermal energy from the leather will transfe to your skin, then to the rest of your body. This is also conduction.


III) A flame heats the air inside a hot air balloon and the balloon rises.

The flame heats air directly at the bottom of the balloon. The warm air expands and becomes less dense. This will rise and let the unheated, denser air in the balloon fall down toward the flame. This is an example of the convection cycle.


IV) A boy sits to the side of a campfire. He is 10 feet away, but still feels warm.

The campfire heats air directly nearby. The warm air expands and moves away from the fire in all directions, leaving behind unheated, denser air to be heated up. Some of the warm air reaches the boy. This is another example of convection.


The answer is A) 1 and 2.
