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.

Assuming the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is exactly one-sixth of the acceleration due to gravity on Earth, what is t
uysha [10]

<u>I have assumed a weight of 120 N on Earth.</u>

Answer:

<em>The object weighs 20 N on the moon</em>

Explanation:

Weight

The weight of an object depends on the mass m of the object and the acceleration of gravity g of the place they are in.

The formula to calculate the weight is:

W = m.g

If g_e is the acceleration of gravity on Earth, and g_m is the acceleration of gravity on the moon, we know:

g_m=1/6 g_e

Dividing by ge:

g_m/g_e = 1/6

An object of weight We=120 N on planet Earth has a mass of:

m = 120 / g_e

Multiplying by gm:

m.g_m=120 g_m/g_e

Substituting the ratio of accelerations of gravity:

m.g_m=120 * 1/6

Since m.gm is the weight on the Moon Wm:

W_m=20~N

The object weighs 20 N on the moon

A material kept at high temperature is seen to emit photons with energies of 0.3 eV, 0.5 eV, 0.8 eV, 2.0 eV, 2.5 eV, and 2.8 eV.
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

0.3 eV, 0.5eV,, 8 eV, 2.0eV, 2.50 eV, 2.8 eV

Explanation:

In a given material the emission and absorption spectra are equivalent, for which the emission spectrum observed at high temperature for the material corresponds to the transition between the energy states of the material, the process is that the electrons exist from the ground state until an excited state and after a short period of time or these electrons relax emitting photons.

In the absorption process, the material is at low temperature, ideally at A = 0K, whereby all states are in the ground state and all excited states are empty. therefore it can absorb the beam energy for each transition given from the ground state to each excited edtado.

Consequently, the lines above the absorption oscillate lines coincide with the lines of emotion, this we see lines oscillate at 0.3 eV, 0.5eV,, 8 eV, 2.0eV, 2.50 eV, 2.8 eV

Boston Red Sox pitcher Roger Clemens could routinely throw a fastball at a horizontal
azamat

Answer: 0.145 seconds

Explanation:

Given that Roger Clemens could routinely throw a fastball at a horizontal speed of 119.7 m/s. How long did the ball take to reach home plate 17.3 m away

Since the speed is horizontal

Using the formula for speed which is

Speed = distance/time

Where

Speed = 119.7 m/s

Distance covered = 17.3 m

Time is what we are looking for

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

119.7 = 17.3/ time

Make time the subject of formula

Time = 17.3 / 119.7

Time = 0.145 seconds.

Therefore, it will take 0.145 seconds to reach the home plates

An electron travels west to east with a kinetic energy of 10 keV. The Earth's magnetic field in Pittsburgh is 19,911.5 nT in the
ch4aika [34]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Kinetic energy of the electron, E_k=10\ keV=10^4\ eV=1.6\times 10^{-15}\ J

Let the east direction is +x direction, north direction is +y direction and vertical direction is +z direction.    

The magnetic field in north direction, B_y=19911.5\ nT

The magnetic field in west direction, B_x=-3257.1\ nT

The magnetic field in vertical direction, B_z=48381.8 \ nT

Magnetic field, B=(-3257.1i+19911.5j+48381.8k)\ nT

Firstly calculating the velocity of the electron using the kinetic energy formulas as :

E_k=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E_k}{m}}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-15}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}}

v=5.92\times 10^7 i\ m/s (as it is moving from west to east)

The force acting on the charged particle in the magnetic field is given by :

F=q(v\times B)

F=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times (5.92\times 10^7 i\times (-3257.1i+19911.5j+48381.8k)\times 10^{-9})

Since, i\times j=k\ \\j\times k=i\\k\times i=j

And, i\times i=j\times j=k\times k=0

F=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times [1178 k-2864.20j]

|F|=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times \sqrt{1178^2+2864.20^2}

F=4.95\times 10^{-16}\ N

(b) Let a is the acceleration of the electron. It can be calculated as :

a=\dfrac{F}{m}

a=\dfrac{4.95\times 10^{-16}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

a=5.43\times 10^{14}\ m/s^2

Hence, this is the required solution.
