Answer: option 3

The heat energy from the coffee is transferred to the mug. This is because of entropy change. For a certain time period the coffee release the heat to the adjacent walls of the mug. But after certain period of time both the mug and coffee reaches to the same temperature i.e., they become under equilibrium state.

And also over the time period the heat may also transfers to the surroundings and the mug will cool down and matches to the surrounding temperature.

Answer: Thermal energy from the coffee is transferred to the mug.

Explanation:

Heat loss will occur due to convection radiation and conduction

The mug gains heat from the coffee by conduction

Answer:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force is 120.85 N

Explanation:

We can use Coulomb's law to find the electrostatic force between the down quarks.

In scalar form, Coulomb's law states that for charges $q_1$ and $q_2$ separated by a distance d, the magnitude of the electrostatic force F between them is:

$F = k \frac{|q_1q_2|}{d^2}$

where $k$ is Coulomb's constant.

Taking the values:

$d = 4.6 \ 10^{-15} m$

$q_1 = q_2 = - \frac{e}{3} = - \frac{1.6 \ 10^{-19} \ C}{3}$

and knowing the value of the Coulomb's constant:

$k = 8.99 \ 10 ^{9} \frac{N m^2}{C^2}$

Taking all this in consideration:

$F = 8.99 \ 10 ^{9} \frac{N m^2}{C^2} \frac{ (- \frac{1.6 \ 10^{-19} \ C}{3} ) ^2}{(4.6 \ 10^{-15} m)^2}$

$F = 120.85 \ N$

On the surface of the earth the weight of an object is 200 lb. Determine the height of the

siniylev [52]

Answer:

The height of the object is 5007.4 miles.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of object = 200 lb

We need to calculate the value of $Gmm_{e}$

Using formula of gravitational force

$F=\dfrac{Gmm_{e}}{r^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$200=\dfrac{Gmm_{e}}{(3958.756)^2}$

$200\times(3958.756)^2=Gmm_{e}$

$Gmm_{e}=3.134\times10^{9}$

We need to calculate the height of the object

Using formula of gravitational force

$F=\dfrac{Gmm_{e}}{r^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$125=\dfrac{200\times(3958.756)^2}{r^2}$

$r^2=\dfrac{200\times(3958.756)^2}{125}$

$r^2=25074798.5$

$r=\sqrt{25074798.5}$

$r=5007.4\ miles$

Hence. The height of the object is 5007.4 miles.
