Explanation:

Mercury exists in liquid state at room temperature as compared to other metals which exits in solid state

This makes Mercury different from all of the other metals in the periodic table.

Naily [24]

Answer:

(a) $\frac{P_{250k}}{P_{2000k}}=2.4\ x\ 10^{-4}$

(b) P = 0.816 Watt

Explanation:

(a)

The power radiated from a black body is given by Stefan Boltzman Law:

$P = \sigma AT^4$

where,

P = Energy Radiated per Second = ?

σ = stefan boltzman constant = 5.67 x 10⁻⁸ W/m².K⁴

T = Absolute Temperature

So the ratio of power at 250 K to the power at 2000 K is given as:

$\frac{P_{250k}}{P_{2000k}}=\frac{\sigma A(250)^4}{\sigma A(2000)^4}\\\\\frac{P_{250k}}{P_{2000k}}=2.4\ x\ 10^{-4}$

(b)

Now, for 90% radiator blackbody at 2000 K:

$P = (0.9)(5.67\ x\ 10^{-8}\ W/m^2.K^4)(1\ x\ 10^{-6}\ m^2)(2000\ K)^4$

A bowling ball with a negative initial velocity slows down as it rolls down the lane toward the pins. Is the bowling ballâs acce

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

positive

Explanation:

The ball is rolling down with a negative velocity, but the velocity is slowing down. therefore the velocity must increase in order for the ball to slow down.

For example let the ball's initial velocity be -15 m/s. and it is slowing down to let's say -13 m/s. Well this means that it's velocity has increase by 2 m/s. So, its acceleration is positive.
