The bimetallic strip in a fire alarm is made of two metals with different expansion rates bonded together to form one piece of metal. Typically, the low-expansion side is made of a nickel-iron alloy called Invar, while the high-expansion side is an alloy of copper or nickel. The strip is electrically energized with a low-voltage current. When the strip is heated by fire, the high-expansion side bends the strip toward an electrical contact. When the strip touches that contact, it completes a circuit that triggers the alarm to sound. The width of the gap between the contacts determines the temperature that will set off the alarm.
1. e) None of the above is necessarily true.
2.d) Without knowing the mass of the boat and the sack, we cannot tell.
Vi = 15 m/s
t = 2 s
a = 9.8 m/s^2
y = ?
The kinematic equation that has all of our variables is d = Vi*t + 0.5*a*t^2
y = 15*2 + 0.5*9.8*2^2 = 49.6 m
Answer:
S = 1/2 Vo t + 1/2 a t^2 = d time for particle to travel distance d
F = E q force acting on particle
a = F / m = E q / m
d = Vo t + E q / (2 m) t^2
One would need to solve the quadratic equation shown to find the time t
t^2 + (2 m) / E q * V0 t - (2 m) / E q * d = 0
or t^2 + A V0 t - A d = 0 where A = (2 m) / E q
Answer:
Car radiators: Water is used as coolant car radiators. Due to its high specific heat capacity, it can absorb a large amount of heat energy from the engine of the car, but its temperature does not rise too high.
