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

1 answer:

3 0

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.

Answer:

B) False.

Explanation:

Most of the times, the numbers that appears right to the cursor are representing the coordinates (x & y) of the cursor. So as the cursor moves around the screen those number changes accordingly.Therefore its wrong to say that there is no need to add a dimension to set the dimensional value.

A student gives a 5.0 kg box a brief push causing the box to move with an initial speed of 8.0 m/s along a rough surface. The bo

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The time taken to stop the box equals 1.33 seconds.

Explanation:

Since frictional force always acts opposite to the motion of the box we can find the acceleration that the force produces using newton's second law of motion as shown below:

$F=mass\times acceleration\\\\\therefore acceleration=\frac{Force}{mass}$

Given mass of box = 5.0 kg

Frictional force = 30 N

thus

$acceleration=\frac{30}{5}=6m/s^{2}$

Now to find the time that the box requires to stop can be calculated by first equation of kinematics

The box will stop when it's final velocity becomes zero

$v=u+at\\\\0=8-6\times t\\\\\therefore t=\frac{8}{6}=4/3seconds$

Here acceleration is taken as negative since it opposes the motion of the box since frictional force always opposes motion.
