Answer:

1. It undergoes reflection. 2. It undergoes refraction. 3. It undergoes diffraction.

Explanation:

1. It undergoes reflection. This is because it bounces off surfaces when incident on them.

2. It undergoes refraction. This is because it changes direction when it passes from one medium to another

3. It undergoes diffraction. This is because it spreads out when it passes through doors and windows similar in dimension to the dimensions of its wavelength

Say that you are in a large room at temperature TC = 300 K. Someone gives you a pot of hot soup at a temperature of TH = 340 K.

DiKsa [7]

Answer:0.061

Explanation:

Given

$T_C=300 k$

Temperature of soup $T_H=340 K$

heat capacity of soup $c_v=33 J/K$

Here Temperature of soup is constantly decreasing

suppose T is the temperature of soup at any instant

efficiency is given by

$\eta =\frac{dW}{Q}=1-\frac{T_C}{T}$

$dW=Q(1-\frac{T_C}{T})$

$dW=c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT$

integrating From $T_H$ to $T_C$

$\int dW=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT$

$W=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}33\cdot (1-\frac{300}{T})dT$

$W=c_v\left [ T-T_C\ln T\right ]_{T_H}^{T_C}$

$W=c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]$

Now heat lost by soup is given by

$Q=c_v(T_C-T_H)$

Fraction of the total heat that is lost by the soup can be turned is given by

$=\frac{W}{Q}$

$=\frac{c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]}{c_v(T_C-T_H)}$

$=\frac{T_C-T_H-T_C\ln (\frac{T_C}{T_H})}{T_C-T_H}$

$=\frac{300-340-300\ln (\frac{300}{340})}{300-340}$

$=\frac{-40+37.548}{-40}$

$=0.061$

A force of constant magnitude pushes a box up a vertical surface, as shown in the figure.

Ray Of Light [21]

The work done on the box by the applied force is zero.

The work done by the force of gravity is 75.95 J

The work done on the box by the normal force is 75.95 J.

<h3>The given parameters:</h3>

Mass of the box, m = 3.1 kg
Distance moved by the box, d = 2.5 m
Coefficient of friction, = 0.35
Inclination of the force, θ = 30⁰

Work is said to be done when the applied force moves an object to a certain distance

The work done on the box by the applied force is calculated as;

$W = Fd cos(\theta)\\\\W = (ma)d \times cos(\theta)$

where;

a is the acceleration of the box

The acceleration of the box is zero since the box moved at a constant speed.

$W = (0) d \times cos(30)\\\\W = 0 \ J$

The work done by the force of gravity is calculated as follows;

$W = mg \times d\\\\W = 3.1 \times 9.8 \times 2.5 \\\\W = 75.95 \ J$

The work done on the box by the normal force is calculated as follows;

$W = (F_n) \times d\\\\W = (mg + F sin\theta) \times d\\\\W = (mg + 0) \times d\\\\W = mgd\\\\W = 3.1 \times 9.8 \times 2.5\\\\W = 75.95 \ J$
