Answer: D) Radiation.

Explanation: The shiny side of the aluminum foil is better at reflecting electromagnetic waves or radiation, so if this side faced the other side, it will prevent some radiated heat to reach the food, which is counterproductive.

When this side faces the food, it also prevents the heat radiated from the food to leave it, so it is actually beneficial.

So the correct answer of why this side should face the food is option D) Radiation

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Insulation

Aluminum foil are really good at keeping the food warm because of its insulation property that it does not let the heat of food go out

NISA [10]

The first step that  Enrique must take in order to calculate the tangential speed of the satellite is to convert the period from days to seconds.

We know that the SI unit of speed is meter per second and now, we with to obtain the tangential speed of the satellite.

Since the period is given in days, the first step is to convert the period from days to seconds.

A real object is 10.0 cm to the left of a thin, diverging lens having a focal length of magnitude 16.0 cm. What is the location
amm1812

Answer:

A)6.15 cm to the left of the lens

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the lens equation:

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}

where

q is the distance of the image from the lens

f is the focal length

p is the distance of the object from the lens

In this problem, we have

f=-16.0 cm (the focal length is negative for a diverging lens)

p=10.0 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

Solvign the equation for q, we find

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{-16.0 cm}-\frac{1}{10.0 cm}=-0.163 cm^{-1}

q=\frac{1}{-0.163 cm^{-1}}=-6.15 cm

And the sign (negative) means the image is on the left of the lens, because it is a virtual image, so the correct answer is

A)6.15 cm to the left of the lens

In a fast-pitch softball game the pitcher is impressive to watch, as she delivers a pitch by rapidly whirling her arm around so
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

(a) 181.05 m/s²

(b) 13.2°

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of the circle (R) = 0.610 m

Angular acceleration (α) = 67.6 rad/s²

Angular speed (ω) = 17.0 rad/s

(a)

Radial acceleration of the ball is given as:

a_r=\omega^2R

Plug in the given values and solve for a_r. This gives,

a_r=(17.0\ rad/s)^2\times (0.610\ m)\\\\a_r=289\times 0.610\ m/s^2\\\\a_r=176.29\ m/s^2

Now, tangential acceleration is given by the formula:

a_t=R\alpha

Plug in the given values and solve for a_t. This gives,

a_t=(0.610\ m)(67.6\ rad/s^2)\\\\a_t=41.236\ m/s^2

Now, the magnitude of total acceleration is given as the square root of the sum of the squares of tangential and centripetal accelerations. Therefore,

a_{Total}=\sqrt{(a_r)^2+(a_t)^2}

Plug in the given values and solve for total acceleration, a_{Total}. This gives,

a_{Total}=\sqrt{(176.29)^2+(41.236)^2}\\\\a_{Total}=181.05\ m/s^2

Therefore, the magnitude of total acceleration is 181.05 m/s².

(b)

Angle of total acceleration relative to radial direction is given by the formula:

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{a_t}{a_r})\\\\\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{41.236}{176.29})\\\\\theta=13.2\°

Therefore, the total acceleration makes an angle of 13.2° relative to radial direction.

a lump of putty and a rubber ball have equal mass. both are thrown with equal speed against a wall. the putty sticks to the wall
RUDIKE [14]
The bouncy ball experiences the greater momentum change.

To understand why, you need to remember that momentum is actually
a vector quantity ... it has a size AND it has a direction too.

The putty and the ball have the same mass, and you throw them
with the same speed.  So, on the way from your hand to the wall,
they both have the same momentum.
Call it " M in the direction toward the wall ".

After they both hit the wall:

-- The putty has zero momentum.
    Its momentum changed by an amount of  M .

-- The ball has momentum of " M in the direction away from the wall ".
    Its momentum changed by an amount of  2M .
