Answer:

The reason is because both are exposed to a virtually infinite heat sink, due to the virtually infinite mass and of the surrounding environment, compared to the sizes of either the cup or the kettle such that the equilibrium temperature, $T_{(equilibrium)}$ reached is the same for both the cup and the kettle as given by the relation;

$\infty M_{(environ)} \times c_{(environ)} \times (T_2 - T_1) = m_{1} \times c_{(water)} \times (T_3 - T_2) + m_{2} \times c_{(water)} \times (T_4 - T_2)$

Due to the large heat sink, T₂ - T₁ ≈ 0 such that the temperature of the kettle and that of the cup will both cool to the temperature of the environment

A flywheel with radius of 0.400 mm starts from rest and accelerates with a constant angular acceleration of 0.600 rad/s2rad/s2.

charle [14.2K]

Answer: $0.00024\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

Radius of flywheel is $r=0.4\ mm$

Angular acceleration $\alpha=0.6\ rad/s^2$

For no change in radius, tangential acceleration is given as

$\Rightarrow a_t=a\lpha \times r$

Insert the values

$\Rightarrow a_t=0.6\times 0.4\times 10^{-3}\ m/s^2\\\Rightarrow a_t=2.4\times 10^{-4}\ m/s^2\ \text{or}\ 0.00024\ m/s^2$

In a lab, a student drags a shoe across the floor at constant speed. If the coefficient of static friction between the floor and

Svetllana [295]

<span>B) 0.6 N
I suspect you have a minor error in your question. Claiming a coefficient of static friction of 0.30N is nonsensical. Putting the Newton there is incorrect. The figure of 0.25 for the coefficient of kinetic friction looks OK. So with that correction in mind, let's solve the problem. The coefficient of static friction is the multiplier to apply to the normal force in order to start the object moving. And the coefficient of kinetic friction (which is usually smaller than the coefficient of static friction) is the multiplied to the normal force in order to keep the object moving. You've been given a normal force of 2N, so you need to multiply the coefficient of static friction by that in order to get the amount of force it takes to start the shoe moving. So: 0.30 * 2N = 0.6N And if you look at your options, you'll see that option "B" matches exactly.</span>

Section 2.2

Feliz [49]

Answer:

Speed changes at the rate of 24 m/s for each second over time.

Explanation:

We are told the object's acceleration is equal to 24 m/s²

Now we know that acceleration can also be defined as the rate of change of speed with time. Also speed has a unit known as m/s.

Thus, we can rephrase the acceleration in this question to mean;

Speed changes at the rate of 24 m/s for every second with time.

A particular inductor is connected to a circuit where it experiences a change in current of 0.8 amps every 0.10 sec. If the indu

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

0.4

Explanation:

Given that a particular inductor is connected to a circuit where it experiences a change in current of 0.8 amps every 0.10 sec. If the inductor has a self-inductance of 2.0 V, what is the inductance

Using the power formula

P = IV

Substitute all the parameters

P = 0.8 × 2

P = 1.6 W

But P = I^2 R

Substitute power and current

1.6 = 0.8^2 R

R = 1.6 / 0.64

R = 2.5 ohms

Inductance = reciprocal of resistance

Inductance = 1 / 2.5

Inductance = 0.4
