Specific Heat capacity or thermal capacity is a measurable physical quantity equal to the ratio of the heat added to (or removed from) an object to the resulting temperature change. Heat capacity is an extensive property of matter, meaning that it is proportional to the size of the system.

According to Faraday, what is produced by a changing magnetic field?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

c. Induced voltage.

Explanation:

Faraday's law says

\varepsilon = N \dfrac{d \Phi_B}{dt},

or in words,

<em>"A changing magnetic flux induces an emf (potential difference) in a coil of wire "</em>

This potential difference is induced, and therefore, we can also call it "induced voltage"; Hence, from the choices given, choice C stands correct.

<em>P.S: Another tempting choice is d; however, it is incorrect since induced emf is NOT an electrostatic force.</em>

A ball is dropped from rest on a cliff what is the speed of the ball 5 seconds later
diamong [38]

Answer:

The velocity of the ball after 5 seconds will be 49 m/s

Explanation:

<em>v = final velocity</em>

<em>u = initial velocity</em>

<em>g = acceleration due to gravity</em>

<em>t = time</em>

Initial velocity of the ball = 0 (As the ball is dropped from rest )

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s

Time taken = 5 sec

As the acceleration due to gravity is constant in both the cases we can use the equations of motion in order to solve this question

Part I :- As we already know the values of u,g,ant t we can use the first equation of motion in order to find v

Part II :- As we know the values of u, t , g we can use the second equation of motion in order to find s.

Velocity of the ball after 5 seconds

Distance covered by the ball in 5 sec

Jamal is skating on a sidewalk. His initial velocity is 0.0 m/s; 35 seconds later his velocity is 5.0 m/s. What is his accelerat
maxonik [38]

Answer:

answer is 0.1428

Explanation:

Data:- vf=5.0 , vi=0.0 , t=35 , a=? so appling first eq of motion vf=vi+at we have to find a=vf-vi/t , a=5.0-0.0/35 , a=5/35 ,a=0.1428m/sec²

An unlabeled hierarchical diagram of various astronomical bodies is shown below. The labels A, B, C, and D can be used to repres
Paha777 [63]
A) The biggest astronomical object is the Universe, which contains billions of galaxies among which there is the Milky Way.
The Milky Way contains thousands of planetary systems, among which the Solar System.
The Solar System contains many <span>planets <span>(but only one star, the Sun)</span>,</span> among which there is Earth.
Therefore you can label:
A = Universe, B = Milky Way, C = Solar system, D = Earth

b) Given what we said before, you could label D also any other planet in the Solar System, therefore you can choose among Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
