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

A 60-kg box is being pushed a distance of 6.2 m across the floor by a force P with arrow whose magnitude is 150 N. The force P w
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of box, m = 60 kg

distance, d = 6.2 m

force, P = 150 N

coefficient of kinetic friction, μk = 0.21

work done by the gravitational force, Wg = Force x distance x cos 90

Wg = 0 J

Work done by the normal force, Wn = force x distance x Cos 90

Wn = 0 J

Work done by the friction force, Wf = - μk mg d

Wf = - 0.21 x 60 x 9.8 x 6.2 = - 765.58 J

Work done by the applied force, Wp = P x d

Wp = 150 x 6.2 = 930 J

Natalka [10]

Answer:  a. 17.7 KJ/Mol

b. T=210K

Explanation:

Arsine, ash3 is a highly toxic compound used in the electronics industry for the production of semiconductors. its vapor pressure is 35 torr at – 111.95°c and 253 torr at – 83.6°c. using these data calculate.

the question isnt completely originally, but we could look at the likely derivation from the questions

(a) the standard enthalpy of vaporization

using the clausius clapeyron equation

In (PT1vap / PT2vap) = delta H (vap) / R ( (1/T1) - (1/T2) )

In (35Torr/253Torr) = delta H (vap) / 8.3145 ( (1/189.55) - (1/161.2) )

Therefore, Delta H (vap) = 17.7 KJ/Mol

b. Also the boiling point

What is the normal boiling point of arsine?

At the boiling point Pvap = atmospheric pressure = 1 atm=760 torr

substitution into the equation as stated in question 1

ln(760/253)=17700/8.314(1/189.55-1/T)

T=210K

Transverse waves travel with a speed of 20 m/s on a string under a tension 0f 6.00 N. What tension is required for a wave speed
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

T_2=13.5\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of transverse wave, v₁ = 20 m/s

Tension in the string, T₁ = 6 N

Let T₂ is the tension required for a wave speed of 30 m/s on the same string. The speed of a transverse wave in a string is given by :

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}........(1)

T is the tension in the string

\mu is mass per unit length

It is clear from equation (1) that :

v\propto\sqrt{T}

\dfrac{v_1}{v_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}}

T_2=T_1\times (\dfrac{v_2}{v_1})^2

T_2=6\times (\dfrac{30}{20})^2

T_2=13.5\ N

So, the tension of 13.5 N is required for a wave speed of 30 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
