A liquid thermometer can be used to test for fevers. When body temperature increases, the liquid inside the thermometer expands

and
rises to show a higher
temperature reading. Which of the following explanations best describes the changes in thermal energy of the
particles during this specific example of heat transfer?
A. The tip of the thermometer is heated by radiation from the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by convection through the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to slow
down, rise, and expand.
B. The tip of the thermometer is heated by conduction from the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by convection through the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to slow
down, rise, and expand.
© C. The tip of the thermometer is heated by convection with the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by conduction with the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then conduct heat causing the warmer particles to speed up,
rise, and expand
© D The tip of the thermometer is heated by conduction with the person's body. The particles of the thermometer tip then transfer heat
by conduction with the liquid inside of it. The particles inside the liquid then convect heat causing the warmer particles to speed up,
rise, and expand

What is the gravitational potential energy of a 3 kg ball kicked into the air at a height of 5 meters?
sladkih [1.3K]

formula for gravitational P.E =mgh

Solution:-mass=3kg height=5metre and gravity=9.8 or 10m/sec² so P.E=mgh , 3×9.8×5=147kgm²/sec²

Fellow student of mathematical bent tells you that the wave function of a traveling wave on a thin rope is y(x,t)= 2.20 mm cos[(
bezimeni [28]

Answer

given,

y(x,t)= 2.20 mm cos[( 7.02 rad/m )x+( 743 rad/s )t]

length of the rope = 1.33 m

mass of the rope = 3.31 g

comparing the given equation from the general wave equation

y(x,t)= A cos[k x+ω t]

A is amplitude

now on comparing

a) Amplitude  = 2.20 mm

b) frequency =

     f = \dfrac{\omega}{2\pi}

     f = \dfrac{743}{2\pi}

          f = 118.25 Hz

c) wavelength

        k= \dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}

        \lambda= \dfrac{2\pi}{k}

        \lambda= \dfrac{2\pi}{7.02}

        \lambda= 0.895\ m

d) speed

         v = \dfrac{\omega}{k}

         v = \dfrac{743}{7.02}

                v = 105.84 m/s

e) direction of the motion will be in negative x-direction

f) tension

  T = \dfrac{v^2\ m}{L}

  T = \dfrac{(105.84)^2\times 3.31 \times 10^{-3}}{1.33}

      T = 27.87 N

g) Power transmitted by the wave

  P = \dfrac{1}{2}m\ v \omega^2\ A^2

  P = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.00331\times 105.84\times 743^2\ 0.0022^2

      P = 0.438 W

The radial velocity method preferentially detects: Choose one: A. all of the above described planets equally well. B. small plan
Zina [86]

The radial velocity method preferentially detects large planets close to the central star

  • what is the Radial velocity:

The radial velocity technique is able to detect planets around low-mass stars, such as M-type (red dwarf) stars.

This is due to the fact that low mass stars are more affected by the gravitational tug of planets.

When a planet orbits around a star, the star wobbles a little.

From this, we can determine the mass of the planet and its distance from the star.

hence we can say that,

option D is correct.

The radial velocity method preferentially detects large planets close to the central star
