Answer:

1275.61° C

Explanation:

The resistance of a conductor varies as a function of temperature and it is given as follows

R= R_o[1+\alpha(T-T_0)]

R_0 is the resistance at temperature T_0, R is  the resistance at T and  α is the coefficient of temperature of resistance

α= 0.0045/°C

R_0 = 20.3Ω T_0 = 20°C   and R= 135Ω  

135= 20.3[1+0.0045(T-20)]

T= 1275.61° C

Therefore the temperature of the hot filament =  1275.61° C

If the air temperature is greater than the surface (water or land) temperature, there will be a net transfer of thermal energy f
ruslelena [56]

The thermal energy will be transferred from the air to the surface. Hence, the answer is false.

Thermal energy can be transferred from higher temperatures to lower temperatures. It is obey the second law of thermodynamics

"At a very microscopic level, it simply says that if you have a system that is isolated, any natural process in that system progresses in the direction of increasing disorder, or entropy, of the system."

It means that heat energy transferred from the higher temperature and the lower temperature states will absorb heat energy from the surrounding. The thermal energy will be transferred through conduction, convection, or radiation.

Why does static friction have a maximum value​
Naddik [55]

Answer:

If you push horizontally with a small force, static friction establishes an equal and opposite force that keeps the book at rest. As you push harder, the static friction force increases to match the force. Eventually maximum static friction force is exceeded and the book moves.
