A student is investigating the best method for heating marshmallows using an open flame.

Physics
1 answer:
Llana [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The answer is Conduction.

Explanation:

In the first scenario given in the question where the student is holding the marshmallows on the side of the flame, she is subjecting the marshmallow the a heat transfer by radiation since the marshmallow is not in direct contact with the fire.

Heat transfer by radiation is done so with the heating of the air between the object and the heat source and does not need any contact between the source and the heated material.

And later when she places the marshmallow over the flames, the heat transfer type she is observing is heat transfer by conduction.

I hope this answer helps.

Why doesn’t the ball roll on forever after being kicked at a soccer game?
gavmur [86]

My guess would be because the gravity from the Earth's core is constantly pulling the ball towards the ground. It's like the moon. Why doesn't the moon just float away in space? Because Earth's gravitational pull keeps it rotating around it. Therefore, the ball will always be pulled towards the core which keeps it from from rolling forever due to friction. But i may be wrong, even though this a quite a good answer, hope it is right!

A 12.0-cm long cylindrical rod has a uniform cross-sectional area A = 5.00 cm2. However, its density increases linearly from 2.6
andriy [413]

Answer:

(a) The constants required describing the rod's density are B=2.6 and C=1.325.

(b) The mass of the road can be found using A\int_0^{12}\left(B+Cx)dx

Explanation:

(a) Since the density variation is linear and the coordinate x begins at the low-density end of the rod, we have a density given by

2.6\frac{g}{cm^3}+\frac{18.5\frac{g}{cm^3}-2.6\frac{g}{cm^3}}{12 cm}x = 2.6\frac{g}{cm^3}+1.325x\frac{g}{cm^2}

recalling that the coordinate x is measured in centimeters.

(b) The mass of the rod can be found by having into account the density, which is x-dependent, and the volume differential for the rod:

m=\int\rho dv=\int\left(B+Cx\right)Adx=5\int_0^{12}\left(2.6+1.325x\right)dx=126.6,

hence, the mass of the rod is 126.6 g.

How much work (in J) is done against the gravitational force on a 3.9 kg briefcase when it is carried from the ground floor to t
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

W = 14523.6 J

Explanation:

Given,

Mass = 3.9 Kg

Vertical height , h = 380 m

Work done against gravitational force

W = m g h

g is acceleration due to gravity

W = 3.9 x 9.8 x 380

W = 14523.6 J

Hence, the work done by the gravitational force is equal to W = 14523.6 J

A coin is placed 29 cm from the center of a horizontal turntable, initially at rest. The turntable then begins to rotate. When t
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between the coin and the turntable is 0.51

Explanation:

at the time of the slip:

centripetal force = frictional force

mv^2/r = x*m*980

v^2/r = 980x

x = v^2/980r

  = [(120)^2]/[980*29]

  = 0.51

Therefore, The coefficient of static friction between the coin and the turntable is 0.51
