Answer:

Conduction occurs when two objects at different temperatures are in contact with each other. Heat flows from the warmer to the cooler object until they are both at the same temperature. ... It is caused by the increased activity or speed of molecules in a substance, which in turn causes temperature to rise accordingly. This process continues until heat energy from the warmer object spreads throughout the cooler object.

What factors determine the magnitude of the electric force between two particles ?

svp [43]

The electric force between the two particles are calculated through the equation,

F = kQ₁Q₂ / d²

where F is the force, k is a constant called Coulomb's law constant, Q₁ and Q₂ are the charges, and d is the distance. This equation is called the Coulomb's law.

It can be seen from the equation above that the electric forces between the objects are majorly affected by the substance's charges and distance.

The answer to this item is therefore letter A.

A system of pulleys is used to raise a load of bricks that weighs 1,700 newtons. The force applied to the pulley is 340 newtons.

Law Incorporation [45]

By definition, we have that the mechanical advantage is given by the following equation:
$MA = \frac{W}{T} 
$
Where,
W: is the load
T: is the tension
Substituting the values in the given equation we have:
$MA = \frac{1700}{340}$
$MA = 5
$
Therefore, the mechanical advantage is equal to 5.
Answer:
The mechanical advantage of this machine is:
MA = 5

Which statement correctly describes both sound and light waves?

olga55 [171]

Answer:

Option C. Light waves can travel through space, sound waves cannot.

Explanation:

Light is an electromagnetic wave which requires no Meduim for propagation. However, sound wave requires a medium for propagation. Since space is empty, sound can not travel through it.

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 72.0 units. If the distance separating objects 1 and 2 is chang

qaws [65]

Answer:

288.0 units; that is the electrostatic force of attraction become quadruple of its initial value.

Explanation:

If all other parameters are constant,

Electrostatic Force of attraction ∝ (1/r²)

F = (k/r²) = 72.0

If r₁ = r/2, what happens to F₁

F₁ = (k/r₁²) = k/(r/2)² = (4k/r²) = 4F = 4 × 72 = 288.0 units
