Answer:

From the cup to the hand.

Explanation:

Note that heat flows from the region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature.

If a cup of coffee is at 90°C and a person with a body temperature of 36°C touches it, therefore the heat flow will be from the coffee(higher temperature) to the body at 36°C. This is due to the temperature gradient i.e difference in temperature of the two bodies.

The heat from the coffee will be transmitted to the hand.

Two transverse waves travel along the same taut string inopposite directions. the waves are described by following equations use
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer: y'=2Asin(kx)cos(wt)

Explanation:

Let y1=A sin (kx + wt) be the first wave

y2=A sin (kx - wt) be the second wave in the opposite direction (which we showed by putting a negative sign between the terms kx and wt)

Please do note that both wave have the same attributes (that's Amplitude, wave number and angular frequency) because they are formed on the same medium by the same source just that their directions are opposite.

By super imposing these 2 waves, we have a resulting singular wave representing both wave (law of superimposition) with a resulting value of vertical displacement y'.

Thus y' = y1 + y2.

Let us do the math.

y'=A sin (kx + wt) + A sin (kx - wt)

By factoring A out, we have that

y' = A [ sin (kx + wt) + sin (kx - wt)]

For simplicity let us use the substitution

Let (kx + wt) = a and (kx - wt) =b

Hence we have that

y' = A [sin a + sin b].

From trigonometric ratio

sin a + sin b = 2sin[(a+b)/2] * cos [(a - b)/2]

By recalling that (kx + wt) = a and (kx - wt) =b

sin a + sin b = 2sin [(kx +wt +kx-wt) /2] * cos [(kx +wt - (kx-wt))/2]

Thus we have that

sin a + sin b = 2sin [(kx+wt+kx-wt)/2] * cos[(kx+wt-kx+wt)/2]

By collecting like terms in the bracket we have that

sin a + sin b = 2sin[2kx/2] * cos [2wt/2]

By dividing

sin a + sin b = 2sin(kx) cos(wt)

Now let us get the final resultant vertical displacement (y')

Recall that

y' = A [sin a + sin b]. and we already deduced that

sin a + sin b = 2sin(kx) cos(wt)

Finally,

y' = A [2sin(kx) cos(wt)] which is

y'=2Asin(kx)cos(wt)...... Final answer

What is the net torque on the square plate, with sides 0.2 m, from each of the three forces? F1=18 N, F2=26 N, and F3=14 N. Use
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The net torque on the square plate is 2.72 N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Side = 0.2 m

Force F_{1}=18\ N

Force F_{2}=26\ N

Force F_{3}=14\ N

We need to calculate the torque due to force F₁

Using formula of torque

\tau_{1}=-F_{1}d_{1}

\tau_{1}=-F_{1}\times\dfrac{a}{2}

Put the value into the formula

\tau_{1}=-18\times\dfrac{0.2}{2}

\tau_{1}=-1.8\ N-m

We need to calculate the torque due to force F₂

Using formula of torque

\tau_{2}=F_{2}d_{2}

\tau_{2}=F_{2}\times\dfrac{a}{2}

Put the value into the formula

\tau_{2}=26\times\dfrac{0.2}{2}

\tau_{2}=2.6\ N-m

We need to calculate the torque due to force F₃

Using formula of torque

\tau_{3}=F_{3}d_{3}

\tau_{3}=(F_{3}\sin45+F_{3}\cos45)\times\dfrac{a}{2}

Put the value into the formula

\tau_{3}=0.1(14\sin45+14\cos45)

\tau_{3}=1.92\ N-m

We need to calculate the net torque on the square plate

\tau=\tau_{1}+\tau_{2}+\tau_{3}

\tau=-1.8+2.6+1.92

\tau=2.72\ N-m

Hence, The net torque on the square plate is 2.72 N-m.

Will you still get tan with sunscreen on
WARRIOR [948]
No, wearing sunscreen won't let you tan. The whole purpose of sunscreen is to protect your skin from sun rays. You can start to become tan if you dont have much sunscreen on - its happened to me.

Assume that a lightning bolt can be modeled as a long, straight line of current. If 16 C of charge passes by a point in 1.50 x 1
Reptile [31]

Answer:

B = 7.9012*10^{-5}T

Explanation:

To solve the problem, the concepts related to the magnetic field and the current produced in a lightning bolt are necessary.

The current is defined by the load due to time, that is to say

I= \frac{q}{t}

Where,

q= Charge

t = time

So the current can be expressed as:

I = \frac{16}{1.5*10^{-3}}

I = 10666.67A

Once the current is found it is now possible to find the magnetic field, as this is given by the equation,

B =\frac{\mu_0}{2\pi}\frac{I}{r}

Where,

\mu_0 =Permeability Constant

I= Current

r= radius

Replacing the values we have

B=\frac{4\pi*10^{-7}}{2\pi}(\frac{10666.67}{27})

B = 7.9012*10^{-5}T
