Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

Conduction is the transfer of energy (in this case heat) from one substance to another substance through direct contact. This definition rules out the option D which suggests that heat does not travel between objects of different temperatures.

It is also impossible for heat to be transferred from a cooler object to a hotter object (as claimed in option B) because the atoms in hotter objects are more energized than cooler objects and are hence able to pass there energy to the cooler object whose atoms in less energized or in a relaxed state if cold. This reason also rules out option A because the hotter object contains more energized particles and hence energy (heat) cannot be passed from the cooler object nor can the heat travel in both directions.

From the explanation in the previous paragraphs, it is clear that energy transfer in solids occurs when heat travels from the hotter object to the cooler object via conduction.

A 60 kg acrobat is in the middle of a 10 m long tightrope. The center of the rope dropped 30 cm in relation to the ends that are
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The tension in each half of the rope, is approximately 4,908.8 N

Explanation:

The mass of the acrobat, m = 60 kg

The length of the rope, l = 10 m

The extent by which the center dropped = 30 cm = 0.3 m

Let, 'T' represent the tension in each half of the rope

Weight, W = Mass, m × The acceleration due to gravity, g

∴ W = m × g

The acceleration due to gravity, g ≈ 9.8 m/s²

∴ The weight of the acrobat, W = 60 kg × 9.8 m/s² ≈ 588 N

The angle the dropped rope makes with the horizontal, θ is given as follows;

θ = arctan((0.3 m)/(5 m)) = arctan(0.06) ≈ 3.434°

At equilibrium, the sum of vertical forces, \Sigma F_y = 0

The vertical component of the tension, T_y, in each half of the rope is given as follows;

T_y = T × sin(θ)

∴ \Sigma F_y = W + T × sin(θ) + T × sin(θ) = W + 2 × T × sin(θ)

Plugging in the values, with θ = arctan(0.06) for accuracy, we get;

588 N + 2 × T × sin(arctan(0.06) = 0

∴ 2 × -T × sin(arctan(0.06) = 588 N

-T= 588 N/(2 × sin(arctan(0.06)) = 4,908.81208 N ≈ 4,908.8 N

The tension in each half of the rope, T ≈ 4,908.8 N.
