Are temperature and thermal energy the same thing justify your answer

1 answer:

6 0

Temperature is the measurement of the average energy of the particles in a solid, liquid or gas and thermal energy is the total energy in a set amount of solid, liquid or gas. Therefore, the temperature and thermal energy is not the same thing. They are both about the particle theory, which is a theory that all particles of solid, liquid or gas are always in motion. But the difference between the two is that temperature is the "measurement" of the particles in a solid, liquid or gas and the thermal energy is the total energy in a set amount of solid, liquid or gas.

lakkis [162]

Answer:

A- series B- parallel

Explanation:

In order to measure current in a circuit, the multi-meter needs to be placed in series with the circuit while when measuring voltage, the multi-meter needs to be placed in parallel with the circuit.

It should be however noted that the same current flows in a series connected circuit and same voltage flows through loads connected in parallel. The ammeter is placed in series with the load to ensure that same value of currents is flowing in both the ammeter and loads(since same current flows in series connected circuit elements and all the amount of voltage must be made to appear on the load for the current to be measured accurately.

Voltmeter is connected in parallel to the load due to high value of current possessed by the voltmeter. The parallel connection will cause the current flowing through the voltmeter to reduce to zero so that it won't have effect (increase) on the amount of current initially on the resistor thereby measuring the exact amount of voltage on the load.

An object is placed 96.5 cm from a glass lens (n = 1.51) with one concave surface of radius 24 cm and one convex surface of radi

poizon [28]

Answer:

image is vertical at distance -203.62 cm

magnification is 2.110

Explanation:

given data

n = 1.51

distance u = 96.5 cm

concave radius r1 = 24 cm

convex radius r2 = 19.1 cm

to find out

final image distance and magnification

solution

we will apply here lens formula to find focal length f

1/f = n-1 ( 1/r1 - 1/r2) .......................1

put here all value

1/f = 1.51 -1 ( -1/24 + 1/19.1)

f = 183.43

so from lens formula

1/f = 1/v + 1/u .............................2

put here all value and find v

1/183.43 = 1/v + 1/96.5

v = −203.62 cm

so here image is vertical at distance -203.62 cm

and

magnification are = -v /u

magnification = 203.62 / 96.5

magnification is 2.110

Which diagram models the position of a soccer ball when it has the greatest amount of gravitational potential energy?

posledela

Answer:

Explanation:

Diagram C is the correct answer, because the ball is at the point with the highest height relative to the ground, in this way all the kinetic energy has been transformed into potential energy.

We must remember that potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height

Ep = m*g*h

where:

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration [m/s²]

h = elevation [m]

So when we have a great value for h in the above equation, we will have a big value for potential energy.
