Conduction transfers Thermal energy by

Physics
1 answer:
Vesnalui [34]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Conduction is the transfer of heat between substances that are in direct contact with each other. The better the conductor, the more rapidly heat will be transferred. Metal is a good conduction of heat. Conduction occurs when a substance is heated, particles will gain more energy, and vibrate more.

You jump off a truck and accelerate toward the surface of the Earth. Does the Earth accelerate toward you?
Triss [41]

When we jump from the truck and accelerate towards the earth surface, the earth also accelerates towards us but it's acceleration is very negligible.

To find the answer, we need to know about the acceleration of earth due to the gravitational attraction.

<h3>What's the gravitational force between the earth and a person?</h3>
  • Gravitational attraction force is GMm/r² between the earth and a person.
  • M= mass of the earth

m= mass of the person

r= separation between them.

<h3>What's the acceleration of the earth towards the person when he jumps from a truck?</h3>
  • According to Newton's second law, Force = M×acceleration
  • Acceleration= Force / M
  • Here, Force = GMm/r²,

so acceleration of earth= Gm/r²

  • As this acceleration is very small, so we can't notice it.

Thus, we can conclude that the earth also accelerates towards us.

There is a species of bamboo that can grow 36 inches per day. If a plant grew at this rate and was measured at 40 inches initial
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

It will take the plant 4\frac{4}{9} days or 4.44 days to grow to a height of 200 inches tall.

Explanation:

From the question, the rate at which the species of the bamboo tree grows is 36 inches per day.

To determine how long it would take a plant 40 inches tall initially to grow at this rate (that is, 36 inches per day) to a height of 200 inches.

This means we will calculate the number of days it will take the plant to grow additional 160 inches ( 200 inches - 40 inches) at this rate.

Now,

If the plant grows 36 inches in 1 day

then it will grow 160 inches in x days

x = (160 inches × 1 day) / 36 inches

x = 160 / 36

x = 4\frac{4}{9} days or 4.44 days

Hence, it will take the plant 4\frac{4}{9} days or 4.44 days to grow to a height of 200 inches tall.

Light travels at a speed of 2.998*108 m/s. Light takes approximately 3.25 minutes to travel from the Sun to reach a planet. Calc
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

585×10⁸ m

Explanation:

Distance = rate × time

d = (2.998×10⁸ m/s) (3.25 min) (60 s/min)

d = 585×10⁸ m

Small cubes that are 10 cm on a side and larger ones that are 12 cm on a side are submerged in water. Cubes A and B are made of
Digiron [165]

Answer

given,

given,

small cube side = 10 cm

larger cube side = 12 cm

density of steel = 7 g/cm³

density of aluminium = 2.7 g/cm³

density of the water (ρ₁)= 1 g/cm³

Cube A and B made of steel

buoyant force of Cube A

 B₁ = ρ₁ V g = 1 x 10 x 10 x 10 x g=  1000 g

for cube B

 B₂ = ρ₁ V g = 1 x 12 x 12 x 12 x g=  1728 g

buoyant force of Cube C

 B₃ = ρ₁ V g = 1 x 10 x 10 x 10 x g=  1000 g

for cube D

 B₄ = ρ₁ V g = 1 x 12 x 12 x 12 x g=  1728 g

buoyant force acting on the cube depends on the density of the fluid

hence,

B₂ = B₄  > B₁ = B₃

A house is lifted from its foundations onto a truck for relocation. The house is pulled upward by a net force of 2850 N. This fo
Gwar [14]

Answer:

m = 95000 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force acting on the house, F = 2850 N

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 15 cm/s = 0.15 m/s

We need to find the mass of the house. Let the mass be m. We know that the net force is given by :

F = ma

Where

a is the acceleration of the house.

So,

F=m\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\m=\dfrac{Ft}{(v-u)}\\\\m=\dfrac{2850\times 5}{(0.15-0)}\\\\m=95000\ kg

So, the mass of the house is equal to 95000 kg.
