Digital thermometers often make use of thermistors, a type of resistor with resistance that varies with temperature more than st

andard resistors. Find the temperature coefficient of resistivity (in (°C)−1) for a linear thermistor with resistances of 80.2 Ω at 0.00°C and 224 Ω at 522°C.

Answer:

0.0034^oC^{-1}

Explanation:

The temperature coefficient (α) of the resistor can be calculated as follows:

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

Where, R is the resistance at temperature T, R_o is the resistance at temperature T_o

Substitute the values:

224\Omega=80.2\Omega[1+\alpha(522^o C-0^oC)]\\ \Rightarrow \alpha = \frac{2.8-1}{522} = 0.0034^oC^{-1}

What are the two factors that determine the amount of gravitational force between two objects?
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

The mass of the objects

Distance between the objects

Explanation:

The two factors that determines the amount of gravitational force between two objects is the mass of the objects and the distance between them.

Gravitational force of attraction is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. This is the postulate of the newton's law of universal gravitation.

 Mathematically:

        F = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}  }{r^{2} }

m is the mass

r is the distance

G is the universal gravitation constant

A major league pitcher can throw a baseball with a kinetic energy of 150 J. How much work must the pitcher do to the ball to giv
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

A= 150 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion.

The formula for kinetic energy is ;

K.E = 1/2 * m *v²  where m is mass and v is velocity

Work done is equal to change in kinetic energy

W= Δ K.E

Given that K.E = 150 J

Taking that the ball was stationary before it was thrown, this makes its initial kinetic energy to be 0 J so the work done will be

W=  Δ K.E

W= 150 - 0

W= 150 J

The buoyant force on an object fully submerged in a liquid depends on (select all that apply)
Natasha_Volkova [10]
2. The object's volume.
 3. The density of the liquid.  
Remember what the buoyant force is. It's the lifting force caused by the displacement of a fluid. I'm using the word fluid because it can be either a liquid or gas. For instance a helium balloon floats due to the buoyant force exceeding the mass of the balloon. So let's look at the options and see what's correct. 
 1. Object's mass
 * This doesn't affect the buoyant force directly. It can have an effect if the object's mass is lower than the buoyant force being exerted. Think of a boat as an example. The boat is floating on the top of the water. If cargo is loaded into the boat, the boat sinks further into the water until the increased buoyant force matches the increased mass of the boat. But if the density of the object exceeds the density of the fluid, then increasing the mass of the object will not affect the buoyant force. So this is a bad choice. 
 2. The object's volume.
 * Yes, this directly affects the buoyant force. So this is a good choice. 
 3. The density of the liquid.
 * Yes, this directly affects the buoyant force. You can drop a piece of iron into water and it will sink. You could also drop that same piece of iron into mercury and it will float. The reason is that mercury has a much higher density than water. So this is a good choice. 
 4. Mass of the liquid
 * No. Do not mistake mass for density. As a mental exercise, imagine the buoyant force on a small piece of metal dropped into a swimming pool. Now imagine the buoyant force on that same piece of metal dropped into a lake. In both cases, the buoyant force is the same, yet the lake has a far greater mass of water than the swimming pool. So this is a bad choice.
