You place three nonflammable objects in a fire. They are identical in shape and size, but one object is black, the second is whi

te, and the third is shiny silver. After a few minutes, all three objects are at the same temperature: 1800° C. They remain solid and are now glowing with thermal radiation. Which one is glowing most brightly? The first object (black). They are all glowing with equal brightness. The third object (silver). The second object (white).

Answer:

The first object (black)

Explanation:

The thermal radiation of a body is governed by the Stefan Boltzmann Law, which is mathematically given as:

E=\epsilon. \sigma.T^4

where:

\sigma =5.67\times 10^{-8}\ W.m^{-2}.K^{-4}      (Stefan Boltzmann constant)

  • Also the absorptivity and emissivity of a perfectly black body is maximum ( =1 ) therefore it absorbs all the heat energy incident on it and glows the brightest due to the perfect emission.

So here also the black object will glow brighter than the others.

Rearrange the equation F = ma to solve for acceleration<span>. You can change this formula around to solve for </span>acceleration<span> by dividing both sides by the mass, so: a = F/m. To find the </span>acceleration<span>, simply divide the force by the mass of the </span>object <span>being accelerated.

100 POINTS FOR CORRECT ANSWER/EXPLANATION
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

6 N

Explanation:

Let's start with the small block m on top.  There are four forces:

Weight force mg pulling down, normal force N₁ pushing up, tension force T pulling right, and friction force N₁μ pushing left (opposing the direction of motion).

Now let's look at the large block M on bottom.  There are seven forces:

Normal force N₁ pushing down (opposite and equal from block m),

Friction force N₁μ pushing right (opposite and equal from block m),

Weight force Mg pulling down,

Tension force T pulling right,

Applied force F pulling left,

Normal force N₂ pushing up,

and friction force N₂μ pushing right (opposing the direction of motion).

So you've correctly identified the free body diagrams.

Now apply Newton's second law.  Sum of forces in the y direction for block m:

∑F = ma

N₁ − mg = 0

N₁ = mg

Sum of forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

T − N₁μ = 0

T = N₁μ

T = mgμ

Sum of forces in the y direction for block M:

∑F = ma

-N₁ − Mg + N₂ = 0

N₂ = N₁ + Mg

N₂ = mg + Mg

Sum of forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

N₁μ + T − F + N₂μ = 0

F = N₁μ + T + N₂μ

F = mgμ + mgμ + (mg + Mg)μ

F = gμ(3m + M)

Since M = 2m:

F = 5gμm

Plug in values:

F = 5 (10 m/s²) (0.400) (0.300 kg)

F = 6 N

A hot air balloon is hovering in the air when it drops a 40 Kg food package to some lost golfers. If the package is dropped from
UNO [17]
We can calculate this with the law of conservation of energy. Here we have a food package with a mass m=40 kg, that is in the height h=500 m and all of it's energy is potential. When it is dropped, it's potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy. So we can say that its kinetic and potential energy are equal, because we are neglecting air resistance:

Ek=Ep, where Ek=(1/2)*m*v² and Ep=m*g*h, where m is the mass of the body, g=9.81 m/s² and h is the height of the body.

(1/2)*m*v²=m*g*h, masses cancel out and we get:

(1/2)*v²=g*h, and we multiply by 2 both sides of the equation

v²=2*g*h, and we take the square root to get v:

v=√(2*g*h)

v=99.04 m/s

So the package is moving with the speed of v= 99.04 m/s when it hits the ground.

True [87]
The government should put it support in a combination of sources, as no source in the present can fully provide all energy requirements.

Describe Kinetic Energy.​
mina [271]
In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest.
