according to newton's third law, every action has equal and opposite reaction. in this scenario of making a jump from the boat onto a dock, as i jump my feet in contact with the boat push the boat in backward direction. hence the action force is the push by my feet on the boat. the boat reacts by applying a reaction force on my feet pushing the feet in forward direction. hence reaction force here is the force by the boat on the feet. due to the reaction force of the boat on feet, i am pushed in forward direction to reach the the dock.

Two liquids, A and B, have equal masses and equal initial temperatures. Each is heated for the same length of time over identica
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

So the specific heat of the liquid B is greater than that of A.

Explanation:

Liquid A is hotter than the liquid B after both the liquids are heated identically for the same duration of time from the same initial temperature then according to heat equation,

Q=m.c.\Delta T

where:

m = mass of the body

c = specific heat of the body

\Delta T= change in temperature of the body

The identical heat source supplies the heat for the same amount of time then the quantity of heat supplied is also equal.

So for constant heat, constant mass the temperature change is inversely proportional to the specific of heat of the liquid.

\Delta T=\frac{Q}{m} \times \frac{1}{c}

\Delta T\propto\frac{1}{c}

So the specific heat of the liquid B is greater than that of A.

An aluminum wire is 5.87 m long and has a diameter of 6.07 mm.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: 5.72 x 10-3Ω

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first we have to calculate the cross sectional area of the cable:

Diameter (D)=6.07 mm

Since: 1000mm = 1m

6.07mm/ 1000mm/m = 0.00607 meters

Area of a circle : π (d/2)^2

A = π (0.00607/2)^2= 0.000028937 m2

Resistance formula:

Resistance (R) = P(resistivity) L (length)÷A (cross sectional area )

Replacing with the values given:

R = (2.82x10-8 x 5.87) / 0.000028937

R = 5.72 x 10-3Ω

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
