If both bars are made of a good conductor, then their specific heat capacities must be different. If both are metals, specific heat capacities of different metals can vary by quite a bit, eg, both are in kJ/kgK, Potassium is 0.13, and Lithium is very high at 3.57 - both of these are quite good conductors.

If one of the bars is a good conductor and the other is a good insulator, then, after the surface application of heat, the temperatures at the surfaces are almost bound to be different. This is because the heat will be rapidly conducted into the body of the conducting bar, soon achieving a constant temperature throughout the bar. Whereas, with the insulator, the heat will tend to stay where it's put, heating the bar considerably over that area. As the heat slowly conducts into the bar, it will also start to cool from its surface, because it's so hot, and even if it has the same heat capacity as the other bar, which might be possible, it will eventually reach a lower, steady temperature throughout.

timama [110]

Answer:

c. 48 cm/s/s

Explanation:

Anna Litical and Noah Formula are experimenting with the effect of mass and net force upon the acceleration of a lab cart. They determine that a net force of F causes a cart with a mass of M to accelerate at 48 cm/s/s. What is the acceleration value of a cart with a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F?

from newtons second law of motion ,

which states that change in momentum is directly proportional to the force applied.

we can say that

f=m(v-u)/t

a=acceleration

t=time

v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

since a=(v-u)/t

f=m*a

force applied is F

m =mass of the object involved

a is the acceleration of the object involved

f=m*48.........................1

in the second case ;a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F

f=ma

a=2F/2M

substituting equation 1

a=2(M*48)/2M

a=. 48 cm/s/s

011 10.0 points
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

2.47 m

Explanation:

Let's calculate first the time it takes for the ball to cover the horizontal distance that separates the starting point from the crossbar of d = 52 m.

The horizontal velocity of the ball is constant:

v_x = v cos \theta = (25)(cos 35.9^{\circ})=20.3 m/s

and the time taken to cover the horizontal distance d is

t=\frac{d}{v_x}=\frac{52}{20.3}=2.56 s

So this is the time the ball takes to reach the horizontal position of the crossbar.

The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by

y=u_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

u_y = v sin \theta =(25)(sin 35.9^{\circ})=14.7 m/s is the initial vertical velocity

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

And substituting t = 2.56 s, we find the vertical position of the ball when it is above the crossbar:

y=(14.7)(2.56) - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(2.56)^2=5.52 m

The height of the crossbar is h = 3.05 m, so the ball passes

h' = 5.52- 3.05 = 2.47 m

above the crossbar.

Kara is writing a science-fiction story. In the story, Earth no longer experiences day and night.
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

C. She should get the Earth spinning on its axis again.

Explanation:

The Earth experiences day and night because of its spinning on its own axis.

If Kara's science-fiction story doesn't have the Earth spinning on its own axis, then the Earth will not experience day and night and hence Kara should incorporate this idea into his story.
