The floor of the room is cooler than the ceiling.explain this based on air currents in the room.

1 answer:

6 0

Hot air rises to the ceiling and as it cools on the far side of the ceiling it sinks back down to the floor. That's why the floor is cooler than the ceiling.

If you know that the period of a pendulum is 1.87 seconds, what is the length of that pendulum? (assume that we are on earth and

laiz [17]

The length of the pendulum is 0.087 m. Option d is correct.

<h3>What is Simple harmonic motion?</h3>

Simple harmonic motion is periodic motion caused by a restoring force that is proportionate to the deviation from equilibrium.

Simple harmonic motion is periodic motion but many other conditions are dependent.

The time period of the pendulum is found as;

$\rm T= 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} } \\\\ \rm 1.87 \ sec= 2 \times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.81 m/s^2} } \\\\ L=0.087 \ m$

The length of the pendulum is 0.087 m

Hence, option d is correct.

A cup of hot coffee initially at 95 degrees C cools to 80 degrees C in 5 min while sitting in a room of temperature 21 degrees C

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

When the temperature of the coffee is 50 °C, the time will be 20.68 mins

Explanation:

Given;

The initial temperature of the coffee T₀ = 95 °C

The temperature of the room = 21°C

Let T be the temperature at time of cooling t in mins

According to Newton's law of cooling;

$\frac{dT}{dt} \alpha (T-21)\\\\\frac{dT}{dt} = k (T-21)\\\\\frac{dT}{T-21} = kdt\\\\\int\limits {\frac{dT}{T-21}} = \int\limits kdt\\\\Log(T-21) =kt + Logc \\\\Log (\frac{T-21}{c} ) = kt\\\\T -21 = ce^{kt}\\\\At \ t = 0, T = 95\\\\95-21 = ce^0\\\\74 = c\\\\New, equation: T -21 = 74e^{kt}\\\\Again; when \ t= 5\ min, T = 80\\\\80 -21 = 74e^{5k}\\\\59 = 74e^{5k}\\\\e^{5k} = \frac{59}{74}\\\\ 5k = ln(\frac{59}{74})\\\\5k = -0.2265\\\\k = -0.0453$

When the temperature is 50 °C, the time t in min is calculated as;

$T -21 = 74e^{-0.0453t}\\\\50 -21 = 74e^{-0.0453t}\\\\29 = 74e^{-0.0453t}\\\\\frac{29}{74} = e^{-0.0453t}\\\\0.39189 = e^{-0.0453t}\\\\ln(0.39189 ) = {-0.0453t}\\\\-0.93677 = {-0.0453t}\\\\t = \frac{-0.93677}{-0.0453}\\\\ t = 20.68 \ mins$

Therefore, when the temperature of the coffee is 50 °C, the time will be 20.68 mins

A 1 kg ball and a 10 kg ball are dropped from a height of 10 m at the same time. In the absence of air resistance,

koban [17]

Answer: A

Explanation: Neglecting air resistance every object will return to the ground at the same interval regardless of their weights, we can say that the objects are undergoing free falls, they are falling under the sole of gravity.

No matter the weight of the objects or the elevation, without significant air resistance, they will reach the ground at the same time.
