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.

Which of the following is NOT scientifically explained by natural selection and its evolutionary consequences?
Tresset [83]

C  the layers of the Earth's interior structure

Explanation:

The theory of natural selection and its evolutionary sequences did not explain the layers of the earth's interior structure. This theory specifically deals with living organisms and how they evolved through time.

  • The layers of the Earth's interior structure are products of differentiation of the early earth.
  • Earth scientists and not biologists are in the best position to offer a scientific explanation to this phenomenon.
  • The processes leading to the formation of earth started several millions years back before evolution of life on earth began.

An AC voltage source and a resistor are connected in series to make up a simple AC circuit. If the source voltage is given by ΔV
ra1l [238]

Answer:

t = 5.48 × 10⁻³ s

Explanation:

Given:

ΔV = ΔVmax × sin(2πft)

frequency, f = 16.9Hz

thus,

ΔV = ΔVmax × sin(2π×16.9×ft)

Now,

Let 'R' be the resistance

Also according to the ohms law

i = V/R

where,

i = current

V = voltage

hence,

i=\frac{\Delta V_{max}sin(2\pi \times 16.9\times t)}{R}

also, given at time 't' the current in the circuit is 55.0% of the peak current

thus

i=\frac{55}{100}\times \frac{\Delta V_{max}}{R}=0.55\times \frac{\Delta V_{max}}{R}

thus,

0.55\times \frac{\Delta V_{max}}{R}=\frac{\Delta V_{max}sin(2\pi \times 16.9\times t)}{R}

or

0.55=sin(2\pi \times 16.9\times t)}

or

0.5823=(2\pi \times 16.9\times t)}

or

t = 5.48 × 10⁻³ s (Answer)

In a certain process, the energy change of the system is 250 \rm kJ. The process involves 480 \rm kJ of work done by the system.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

\Delta Q=-230kJ

Explanation:

Using the first law of thermodynamics:

\Delta U=\Delta Q-W

Where \Delta U is the change in the internal energy of the system, in this case  \Delta U=250kJ, \Delta Q is the heat tranferred, and W is the work,  W=-480kJ with a negative sign since the work is done by the system.

From the previous equation we solve for heat, because it is the unknown variable in this problem

\Delta Q=\Delta U +W

And replacing the known values:

\Delta Q=250kJ +(-480kJ)

\Delta Q=250kJ -480kJ

\Delta Q=-230kJ

The negative sign shows us that the heat is tranferred from the system into the surroundings.
