In deep space (no gravity), the bolt (arrow)
salantis [7]

t  = 0.527 s

<u>It accelerates for 0.527 s.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

We use the formula:

v = u+at

Given:

v = 106 m/s

u = 0 (since no gravity)

a=201 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

So applying the formula,

v = u+at

106 = 0 + 201t

t     = 106/201

t     = 0.527 s

How does the strong nuclear force hold the nucleus of an atom together?
erastovalidia [21]

The strong nuclear force holds the nucleus of an atom together.  

Somehow, it overcomes the electrical force of repulsion between protons in the nucleus, which all have the same charge but still stay close together somehow. (b)

A 60-W light bulb radiates electromagnetic waves uniformly in all directions. At a distance of 1.0 m from the bulb, the light in
krek1111 [17]
1. If we increase the distance to twice it's original value, the light intensity is reduced by one-fourth, the light intensity would be:
I0/4

2. rms magnetic field is inversely proportional to distance, so the new rms magnetic field would be:
B0/2

3. average energy density is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, so the new average energy density is:
E0/4

Explain why water, with its high specific heat capacity, is utilized for heating systems such as hot-water radiators.
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Answer in explanation

Explanation:

Water is mainly used as coolant in heating systems like hot-water radiators. The main function of water in such systems, is to absorb as much heat as possible, in order to decrease the temperature of the system and as a result cool it.

The specific heat capacity is the measure of heat energy that is required to raise the temperature of unit mass of a substance through 1 °C. In other words, specific heat capacity quantifies the amount of heat that can be stored by a unit mass of a substance having a degree rise in temperature.

Thus, the more specific heat a substance has, the more heat it can absorb from the hot system. Hence, the specific heat capacity of a coolant must be high.

<u>This is the reason why water, with its high specific heat capacity, is utilized for heating systems, such as radiators.</u>
