Which is an example of something heated by conduction

1 answer:

5 0

An example would be a pot on a stove. The radiation from the source of the heat (the stove) would make the handle hot by conduction from heat through contact.

Another example could be a metal spoon in a hot cup of coffee. The coffee itself is hot, but since the spoon is in the coffee and making contact, part of the spoon will become hot from the radiation of the source of heat (the hot coffee). Thus, conduction.

In comparing molar specific heat for gases under constant pressure CP and constant volume CV, we conclude that (more than one co

Sauron [17]

Answer:

b. Specific heat increases as the number of atoms per molecule increases.

c. Specific heat at constant pressure is higher than at constant volume.

d. Monatomic gases behave like ideal gases.

Explanation:

Specific heat of the gas at constant pressure is usually higher than that of the volume.

i.e.

Cp - Cv = R

where R is usually the gas constant.

However, monoatomic gases are gases that exhibit the behavior of ideal gases. This is due to the attribute of the intermolecular forces which plays a negligible role. Nonetheless, the case is not always true for all temperatures and pressure.

Similarly, the increase in the number of atoms per molecule usually brings about an increase in specific heat. This effect is true as a result of an increase in the total number associated with the degree of freedom from which energy can be separated.

Thus, from above explanation:

Option b,c,d are correct while option (a) is incorrect.

You place an ice cube of mass 7.50×10−3kg and temperature 0.00∘C on top of a copper cube of mass 0.540 kg. All of the ice melts,

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The value is $T_c = 12 .1 ^oC$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the ice cube is $m_i = 7.50 *10^{-3} \ kg$

The temperature of the ice cube is $T_i = 0^o C$

The mass of the copper cube is $m_c = 0.540 \ kg$

The final temperature of both substance is $T_f = 0^oC$

Generally form the law of thermal energy conservation,

The heat lost by the copper cube = heat gained by the ice cube

Generally the heat lost by the copper cube is mathematically represented as

$Q = m_c * c_c * [T_c - T_f ]$

The specific heat of copper is $c_c = 385J/kg \cdot ^oC$

Generally the heat gained by the ice cube is mathematically represented as

$Q_1 = m_i * L$

Here L is the latent heat of fusion of the ice with value $L = 3.34 * 10^{5} J/kg$

$Q_1 = 7.50 *10^{-3} * 3.34 * 10^{5}$

=> $Q_1 = 2505 \ J$

$2505 = 0.540 * 385 * [T_c - 0 ]$

=> $T_c = 12 .1 ^oC$

Name and describe the two layers inside Earth that are undergoing convection and indicate one major consequence of each.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

Mantle and core

Explanation:

The Mantle and Core are the two components within Earth experiencing convection. In several ways the mantle is significant. The one outcome of convective current is the creation of the fresh oceanic lithosphere around OCEANIC RIDGES, formed by mantle upwelling. Core is indeed the planet's innermost layer.

Newton observed the action of a prism on the white light and on red light. Because he did not control the event, this investigation of light was an observational study.

Hope this helps! (:
