Answer:The thermal energy gets transferred to fork from lasagna by the means of Thermal conduction.

Explanation:

Thermal conduction is defined as movement of heat from hotter object to cooler object when they touching each other.The movement of heat is due to particle collision and movement of electrons within a substance.

Same is happening in the case when we place fork in hot lasagna due to which fork gets warm.

A proton, mass 1.67 × 10−27 kg and charge +1.6 × 10−19 c, moves in a circular orbit perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field of

stellarik [79]

Time taken by proton to complete one complete circular orbit= 7.28 x 10⁻⁸ s

Explanation:

For proton, the centripetal force required for circular motion is provided by the magnetic force,

so Fm= Fc

q v B = m v²/r

m= mass of charged particle

v= velocity

B =magnetic field

q= charge

r= radius of circular path

v= q B r/m

now v= r ω

ω= angular velocity

ω r = q B r /m

ω=q B /m

now ω= 2π/T where T =time period

so 2π/T=q B/m

T= 2 πm/q B

T= 2π (1.67 x 10⁻²⁷)/ [( 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)* (0.9)]

T= 7.28 x 10⁻⁸ s

The speed of light is now defined to be c=2.99792458x10^8 m/s. Express the speed of light to three significant figures

Helga [31]

Easy. All you need to do us to is to shorten the number so that it only contains 3 digits. Change 2.9979248 to 2.99. Don't forget to round the number to the last possible digit. In this case, 2.997 would round to 3.00

So the answer would be 3.00x10^8.

Why?

Well, every non-0 number to the left of the decimal point will count as a significant figure. And every number to the right of the decimal point, whether it's 0 or not, will also count as a significant figure.

The 3 to the left of the decimal point and the 2 0s to the right will add up to 3 significant figures.
