Can we use a clinical thermometer to measure the temperature of a candle flame​

Physics

In theory, yes. The 2 problems are the materials used for clinical thermometers, & the temperature capacity of the clinical thermometer. If anything, change the material & extend the measurement threshold. At that point, it wouldn´t be used for clinical garbage anymore.

A certain field line diagram illustrates the electric field due to three particles that carry charges 5.0 μC, -3.0 μC, and -2.0
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

Number of lines emanate from + 5 micro coulomb is 15 .

They terminates at negative charges that means at - 3 micro coulomb and - 2 micro Coulomb.

the electric field lines terminates at - 3 micro Coulomb and - 2 micro Coulomb is in the ratio of 3 : 2.

So the lines terminating at - 3 micro coulomb

                                    = \frac{3}{5}\times 15 = 9

So the lines terminating at - 2 micro coulomb

                                    = \frac{2}{5}\times 15 = 6

So, the number of filed lines terminates at - 2 micro Coulomb are 6.

What is the difference between a hurricane watch and a hurricane warning
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Hurricane watch means hurricane conditions are expected in a specified area. As defined by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), it means that hurricane conditions (sustained winds of 74 mph or greater) are possible within your area. WHILE,

Hurricane warnings means hurricane conditions are expected in an area.

So while hurricane watch may not occur, hurricane warnings will most likely occur. Watch is usually issued hours before the warning is.

Challenge! A marshmallow is dropped from a 5-meter high pedestrian bridge and 0.83 seconds later, it lands right on the head of
WINSTONCH [101]

a₀).  You know ...
         -- the object is dropped from 5 meters
             above the pavement;
         --  it falls for 0.83 second.

a₁).  Without being told, you assume ...
         -- there is no air anyplace where the marshmallow travels,
             so it free-falls, with no air resistance;
         -- the event is happening on Earth,
            where the acceleration of gravity is  9.81 m/s² .

b).  You need to find how much LESS than 5 meters
       the marshmallow falls in 0.83 second.
    
c).  You can use whatever equations you like.
       I'm going to use the equation for the distance an object falls in
       ' T ' seconds, in a place where the acceleration of gravity is ' G '.

d).  To see how this all goes together for the solution, keep reading:


The distance that an object falls in ' T ' seconds
when it's dropped from rest is

                                 (1/2 G) x (T²) .

On Earth, ' G ' is roughly  9.81 m/s², so in 0.83 seconds,
such an object would fall

                               (9.81 / 2) x (0.83)² = 3.38 meters .

It dropped from 5 meters above the pavement, but it
only fell 3.38 meters before something stopped it.
So it must have hit something that was

                         (5.00 - 3.38)  =  1.62 meters

above the pavement.  That's where the head of the unsuspecting
person was as he innocently walked by and got clobbered.

Because the block is not moving, the sum of the x components of the forces acting on the block must be zero. Find an expression
Viktor [21]

Answer:

F_{xtotal} = F_{x} - \mu N

Explanation:

Let the total force be F

The force that produces motion in the x direction is given as, F_{x}

Let the frictional force be given as:

F_{fric} = \mu N

Thus, the net force is given as:

F_{xnet}  = F_{x} - \mu N

Do electromagnetic waves occur in a continuous spectrum based on their wavelength?
likoan [24]

Answer: Yes

Explanation: Because Electromagnetic waves form a continuous spectrum and all types of electromagnetic wave travel at the same velocity through a vacuum (space) or air. The waves that form the electromagnetic spectrum are grouped in terms of their wavelength and their frequency.
