How do the principles of convection, conduction, and radiation explain how the water in the saucepan gets hot?

RSB [31]

Heat comes from stove flame to the sauce pan by radiation through infrared energy, heat conducts the metal of the sauce pan; Convection brings cool water to the hot surface at the bottom of the hot sauce pan until all or most of the water is hot enough to boil.

A woman of mass 50 kg is swimming with a velocity of 1.6 m/s. If she stops stroking and glides to a stop in the water, what is t

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Impulse of force = -80 Ns

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 50kg

Initial velocity = 1.6m/s

Since she glides to a stop, her final velocity equals to zero (0).

Now, we would find the change in velocity.

$Change \; in \; velocity = final \; velocity - initial \; velocity$

Substituting into the equation above;

Change in velocity = 0 - 1.6 = 1.6m/s

$Impulse \; of \; force = mass * change \; in \; velocity$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Impulse \; of \; force = 50 * -1.6$

Impulse of force = -80 Ns

Therefore, the impulse of the force that stops her is -80 Newton-seconds and it has a negative value because it is working in an opposite direction, thus, bringing her to a stop.

Serjik [45]

Answer:

$-16\omega sin(\omega t + \pi/4)$

Explanation:

The function of the current with respect to time is the derivative of the charge function with respect to time t. We can apply chain rule to differentiate it:

$I(t) = Q'(t) = (16cos(\omega t + \pi/4))' \\= -16(\omega t + \pi/4)' sin(\omega t + \pi/4) \\= -16\omega sin(\omega t + \pi/4)$
