Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is:

The handle is made from a different material than the rest of the pot because you want to be able to safely move & touch the handle without getting burnt. The pot is made of conductors, like metal, to help it get hot quickly and cook evenly. You need to be able to touch the handle without being in danger, so the handle is made of an insulator, like wood, which doesn't get hot easily

I hope this helps!

Answer: the handle is made up of different material than the rest of the pot because the handle can conduct heat into your hand if its the same material.

Two identical cars, one on the moon and one on the earth, have the same speed and are rounding banked turns that have the same r

Naily [24]

Answer:

The value of the centripetal forces are same.

Explanation:

Given:

The masses of the cars are same. The radii of the banked paths are same. The weight of an object on the moon is about one sixth of its weight on earth.

The expression for centripetal force is given by,

$F_{c} = \dfrac{mv^{2}}{r}$

where, $m$ is the mass of the object, $v$ is the velocity of the object and $r$ is the radius of the path.

The value of the centripetal force depends on the mass of the object, not on its weight.

As both on moon and earth the velocity of the cars and the radii of the paths are same, so the centripetal forces are the same.

When atoms are split, they release energy. this concept applies to

balu736 [363]

This applies to nuclear reactions, specifically nuclear fission.

This huge release of energy has been used in atomic bombs and in the nuclear reactors that generate electricity.

Calculate the propellant mass required to launch a 2000 kg spacecraft from a 180 km circular orbit on a Hohmann transfer traject

Finger [1]

Answer:

t = 12,105.96 sec

Explanation:

Given data:

weight of spacecraft is 2000 kg

circular orbit distance to saturn = 180 km

specific impulse = 300 sec

saturn orbit around the sun R_2 = 1.43 *10^9 km

earth orbit around the sun R_1= 149.6 * 10^ 6 km

time required for the mission is given as t

$t = \frac{2\pi}{\sqrt{\mu_sun}} [\frac{1}{2}(R_1 + R_2)]^{3/2}$

where

$\mu_{sun}$ is gravitational parameter of sun = 1.32712 x 10^20 m^3 s^2. $t = \frac{2\pi}{\sqrt{ 1.32712 x 10^{20}}} [\frac{1}{2}(149.6 * 10^ 6 +1.43 *10^9 )]^{3/2}$
