Can someone list two non-examples of volcano formations/eruptions?

Explain how we measure temperatures in our daily lives.

AnnyKZ [126]

Many devices have been invented to accurately measure temperature. It all started with the establishment of a temperature scale. This scale transformed the measurement of temperature into meaningful numbers.

In the early years of the eighteenth century, Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736) created the Fahrenheit scale. He set the freezing point of water at 32 degrees and the boiling point at 212 degrees. These two points formed the anchors for his scale.

Later in that century, around 1743, Anders Celsius (1701-1744) invented the Celsius scale. Using the same anchor points, he determined the freezing temperature for water to be 0 degree and the boiling temperature 100 degrees. The Celsius scale is known as a Universal System Unit. It is used throughout science and in most countries.

There is a limit to how cold something can be. The Kelvin scale is designed to go to zero at this minimum temperature. The relationships between the different temperature scales are:

oK = 273.15 + oC oC = (5/9)*(oF-32) oF = (9/5)*oC+32

oF oC oK

Water boils 212 100 373

Room Temperature 72 23 296

Water Freezes 32 0 273

Absolute Zero -460 -273 0

At a temperature of Absolute Zero there is no motion and no heat. Absolute zero is where all atomic and molecular motion stops and is the lowest temperature possible. Absolute Zero occurs at 0 degrees Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius or at -460 degrees Fahrenheit. All objects emit thermal energy or heat unless they have a temperature of absolute zero.

If we want to understand what temperature means on the molecular level, we should remember that temperature is the average energy of the molecules that composes a substance. The atoms and molecules in a substance do not always travel at the same speed. This means that there is a range of energy (the energy of motion) among the molecules. In a gas, for example, the molecules are traveling in random directions at a variety of speeds - some are fast and some are slow. Sometimes these molecules collide with each other. When this happens the higher speed molecule transfers some of its energy to the slower molecule causing the slower molecule to speed up and the faster molecule to slow down. If more energy is put into the system, the average speed of the molecules will increase and more thermal energy or heat will be produced. So, higher temperatures mean a substance has higher average molecular motion. We do not feel or detect a bunch of different temperatures for each molecule which has a different speed. What we measure as the temperature is always related to the average speed of the molecules in a system

There is a current of 0.83 A through a lightbulb in a 120 V circuit. What is the resistance of this lightbulb?

Lemur [1.5K]

Considering the Ohm's law, the resistance of the lightbulb is 144.58 Ω.

<h3>Definition of current</h3>

The flow of electricity through an object, such as a wire, is known as current (I). Its unit of measure is amps (A). So the current is a measure of the speed at which the charge passes a given reference point in a specified direction.

<h3>Definition of voltage</h3>

The driving force (electrical pressure) behind the flow of a current is known as voltage and is measured in volts (V) (voltage can also be referred to as the potential difference or electromotive force). That is, voltage is a measure of the work required to move a charge from one point to another.

<h3>Definition of resistance</h3>

Resistance (R) is the difficulty that a circuit opposes to the flow of a current and it is measured in ohms (Ω).

Ohm's law establishes the relationship between current, voltage, and resistance in an electrical circuit.

This law establishes that the intensity of the current that passes through a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage of the same and inversely proportional to the resistance that it presents.

Mathematically, Ohm's law is expressed as:

$I=\frac{V}{R}$

Where:

I is the current measured in amps (A).
V the voltage measured in volts (V).
R the resistance that is measured in ohms (Ω).

<h3>Resistance of the lightbulb</h3>

In this case, you know that the voltage between two points in a circuit is 120 V and there is a current of 0.83 A.

Replacing in the Ohm's Law:

$0.83A=\frac{120 V}{R}$

Solving:

0.83 A× R= 120 V

$R=\frac{120 V}{0.83A}$

Finally, the resistance of the lightbulb is 144.58 Ω.

A person of 70 kg standing on an un-deformable horizontal surface. She bends her knees and jumps up from rest, achieving a launc

eduard

Answer:

1190 N

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the product of mass and velocity. The unit of force is Newton(N).

From the question,

F = ma................. Equation 1

Where F = average force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

But,

a = (v-u)/t................ Equation 2

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

F = m(v-u)/t.............. Equation 3

Given: m = 70 kg, v = 1.7 m/s, u = 0 m/s (from rest), t = 0.1 s.

Substitute into equation 3

F = 70(1.7-0)/0.1

F = 1190 N.

Suppose an event is measured to be at a = (0,-2, 3, 5) in one reference frame. Find the components of this event in another refe

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The components of the moving frame is (8.07c, -2, 3, 9.493)

Solution:

As per the question:

Velocity of moving frame w.r.t original frame $v_{m}$ 0.85c

Point 'a' of an event in one reference frame corresponds to the (x, y, z, t) coordinates of the plane

a = (0, - 2, 3, 5)

Now, according the the question, the coordinates of moving frame, say (X, Y, Z, t'):

New coordinates are given by:

X = $\frac{x - v_{m}t}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v_{m}^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

X = $\frac{0 - 0.85c\times 5}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{(0.85c)^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

X = $8.07 c$

Now,

Y = y = - 2

Z = z = 3

Now,

$t' = \frac{t - \frac{vx}{c}^{2}}{\sqrt{1 - (\frac{v}{c})^{2}}}$

$t' = \frac{5 - 0}{\sqrt{1 - (\frac{0.85c}{c})^{2}}} = 9.493 s$

A ball bounces on the ground. How do the ball and the ground act on each other?(1 point)

liubo4ka [24]

Answer: A is your best answer.

Explanation:

It should be A because the when the ball bounces on the ground the ground will give it force to bounce again but also it wont go as high as it first did. Hope this helps:))
