What is the predicted result when two different materials of equal mass absorb the same amount of energy by heat flow?
Ludmilka [50]

The correct is D.

Explanation: The specific heat is defined as heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass by one degree. Greater the specific heat, more is the heat required to raise the temperature for equal mass. So, the temperature of the material with lowest specific heat will increase the most for the same amount of heat energy.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer: 2 diodes

Explanation:

Given : In proof testing of circuit boards, the probability that any particular diode will fail is 0.01.

The number of diodes contained by circuit board = 200

Then , the expected number of diodes to fail is given by :-

0.01\times200=2

Therefore, there are 2 diodes that we will expect to fail.
