water in a cup and a kettle can have the same temperature even though the quantities are different . give reasons​

Physics
1 answer:
jekas [21]3 years ago
4 0

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

valentina_108 [34]

Answer: Diagram B

Explanation:

A free body diagram shows the forces acting on an object in a certain scenario.

In this scenario there are two forces acting on the carrot: the Tension force (Ft) from the rope that the carrot is hanging from and Gravitational force(Fg) which is pulling the carrot to the Earth.

The diagram depicting this is diagram B.
