Answer:

The right option is (d) substance undergoing a change of state

Explanation:

Latent Heat: Latent heat is the heat required to change the state of a substance without change in temperature. Latent heat is also known as hidden heat because the heat is not visible. The unit is Joules (J).

Latent heat is divided into two:

⇒ Latent Heat of fusion

⇒ Latent Heat of vaporization.

Latent Heat of fusion: This is the heat  energy required to convert a substance from its solid form to its liquid form without change in temperature. E.g (Ice) When ice is heated, its temperature rise steadily until a certain temperature is reached when the solid begins to melts.

Latent Heat of vaporization: This is the heat required to change a liquid substance to vapor without a change in temperature. The latent heat depend on the mass of the liquid and the nature of the liquid. E.g When water is heated from a known temperature  its boiling point (100°C) When more heat is supplied to its boiling temperature, it continue to boil without a change in temperature.

From The above, Latent heat brings about  a change of state of a substance at a steady temperature.

The right option is (d) substance undergoing a change of state

Which describes the movement of a fluid during convection?
VikaD [51]
The movement of a fluid during convection is a circular/oval motion since the fluid at the top sinks and the fluid at the bottom rises.

Find a glass jar with a screw-top metal lid. Close the lid snugly and put the jar into the refrigerator. Leave it there for abou
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

The lid becomes tighter

It becomes tighter because metals have a lower heat capacity than glass meaning their temperature drops (or increases) much faster than glass for the same energy change. So in this example, the metal will contract faster than the glass causing it to be more tighter around the glass.

A sprinter starts from rest and accelerates to her maximum speed of 10.5 m/s in a distance of 11.0 m. (a) What was her accelerat
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

a)a=5.01m/s^2

b)t=11.26s

Explanation:

A body that moves with constant acceleration means that it moves in "a uniformly accelerated movement", which means that if the velocity is plotted with respect to time we will find a line and its slope will be the value of the acceleration, it determines how much it changes the speed with respect to time.

When performing a mathematical demonstration, it is found that the equations that define this movement are as follows.

Vf=Vo+a.t  (1)

{Vf^{2}-Vo^2}/{2.a} =X(2)

X=Xo+ VoT+0.5at^{2}    (3)

X=(Vf+Vo)T/2 (4)

Where

Vf = final speed

Vo = Initial speed

T = time

A = acceleration

X = displacement

In conclusion to solve any problem related to a body that moves with constant acceleration we use the 3 above equations and use algebra to solve

to solve the question a, we can use the ecuation number 2

Vo=0

Vf=10.5 m/s

x=11m

{Vf^{2}-Vo^2}/{2.a} =X

{Vf^{2}-Vo^2}/{2.x} =a

{10.5^{2}-0^2}/{2x11} =a

a=5.01m/s^2

to find the time we can use the ecuation number 1

Vf=Vo+a.t

t=(Vf-Vo)/a

t=(10.5-0)/5.01=2.09s

part b

in this case  the spees is constant, so the movement is defined by the following ecuation

X=VT

t=x/v

t=96.3/10.5=9.17s

to find the total time we sum the times when the speed is constant and when the acceleration is constan

t=9.17+2.09

t=11.26s

Two metal spheres of different sizes are charged such that the electric potential is the same at the surface of each. Sphere A h
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Radius of A is twice of B i.e.

R_A=2R_B

Also Potential of both sphere is same

V_A=V_B

V=\frac{kQ}{R}

thus

k\frac{Q_A}{R_A}=K\frac{Q_B}{R_B}

\frac{Q_A}{Q_B}=\frac{R_A}{R_B}

\frac{Q_A}{Q_B}=\frac{2}{1}=2

\frac{Q_B}{Q_A}=\frac{1}{2}

(b)Ratio of \frac{E_B}{E_A}

Electric Field is given by E=\frac{kQ}{R^2}

thus E_A=\frac{kQ_A}{R_A^2}----1

E_B=\frac{kQ_B}{R_B^2}----2

Divide 2 by 1

\frac{E_B}{E_A}=\frac{Q_B}{R_B^2}\times \frac{R_A^2}{Q_A}

\frac{E_B}{E_A}=\frac{1}{2}\times 4=2
