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.

Honeybees accumulate charge as they fly, and they transfer charge to the flowers they visit. Honeybees are able to sense electri
Vilka [71]

Answer:

ΔE> E_minimo

We see that the field difference between these two flowers is greater than the minimum field, so the bee knows if it has been recently visited, so the answer is if it can detect the difference

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the electric field expression

         E = k q / r²

where k is the Coulomb constant that is equal to 9 109 N m² /C², q the charge and r the distance to the point of interest positive test charge, in this case the distance to the bee

let's calculate the field for each charge

 

Q = 24 pC = 24 10⁻¹² C

         E₁ = 9 10⁹ 24 10⁻¹² / 0.20²

         E₁ = 5.4 N / C

Q = 32 pC = 32 10⁻¹² C

         E₂ = 9 10⁹ 32 10⁻¹² / 0.2²

         E₂ = 7.2 N / C

let's find the difference between these two fields

         ΔE = E₂ -E₁

         ΔE = 7.2 - 5.4

         ΔE = 1.8 N / C

the minimum detection field is

         E_minimum = 0.77 N / C

        ΔE> E_minimo

We see that the field difference between these two flowers is greater than the minimum field, so the bee knows if it has been recently visited, so the answer is if it can detect the difference

If this decay has half-life of 2 years, how many years would it take for 10.8 g Protactinium-231 to remain given an initial mass
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Time = 6 years

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the no. of half life periods required to reduce the mass of Protactinium to the given value:

m' = \frac{m}{2^{n} } \\\\2^n = \frac{m}{m'}

where,

n = no. of half-life periods = ?

m = initial mass = 86.3 g

m' = remaining mass = 10.8 g

Therefore,

2^n = \frac{86.3\ g}{10.8\ g}\\\\2^n = 8\\2^n = 2^3

Since the bases are the same. Therefore equating powers:

n = 3

Now we calculate the time:

Time = (n)(Half-Life)\\Time =(3)(2\ years)

<u>Time = 6 years</u>
