<h2>Answer: Temperature </h2>

Temperature is a physical quantity that reflects the amount of heat in a body or medium. This amount of heat is related to the internal energy of a system (thermodynamically speaking), <u>according to the movement (speed) of each of the particles that compose it</u>, this means that it is related to its kinetic energy.

Therefore, the higher the kinetic energy, the higher the thermal energy in the system and the higher the temperature.

A rectangular sharp-crested weir is contracted on both sides, and the opening is 1.2 m wide. At what height (Hw) should it be pl

Alex

Answer:

H_w = 2.129 m

Explanation:

given,

Width of the weir, B = 1.2 m

Depth of the upstream weir, y = 2.5 m

Discharge, Q = 0.5 m³/s

Weir coefficient, C_w = 1.84 m

Now, calculating the water head over the weir

$Q = C_w BH^{3/2}$

$H = (\dfrac{Q}{C_wB})^{2/3}$

$H = (\dfrac{0.5}{1.84\times 1.2})^{2/3}$

$H = 0.371\ m$

now, level of weir on the channel

H_w = y - H

H_w = 2.5 - 0.371

H_w = 2.129 m

Height at which weir should place is equal to 2.129 m.

A tennis player strikes a tennis ball from underneath with her racket. The ball is sent straight up with an initial velocity of

Stels [109]

So the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s so that’s how quickly it will accelerate downwards. You can use a kinematic equation to determine your answer. We know that initial velocity was 19 m/s, final velocity must be 0 m/s because it’s at the very top, and the acceleration is -9.8 m/s. You can then use this equation:

Vf^2=Vo^2+2ax

Plugging in values:

A plate carries a charge of 3.8 UC, while a rod carries a charge of 1.9 C. How many electrons must be transferred from the plate

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

$N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=5.94*10^{18}electrons$

Explanation:

The total charge is distributed over the two objects:

$Q_{total}/2=(3.8*10^{-6}C+1.9C)/2=0.9500019C\\$

The plate and the rod must have $Q_{total}/2\\$ . So the charge transferred from the plate to the rod is:

$Q_{transfered}=3.8*10^{-6}C-Q_{total}/2=3.8*10^{-6}C-0.9500019C=-0.9499981C\\$

Number of electrons:

$N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=-0.9499981C/(-1.6*10^{-19}C)=5.94*10^{18}electrons$

When cold milk

monitta

Answer:

See explanation below.

Explanation:

The internal energy (kinetic energy) of the milk particles increases thus warming the milk up, while the internal energy of the coffee particles reduce their initial average speed as they are imparting energy to the slow milk particles.
