Answer:

specific heat of aluminium is more than the specific heat of iron

Explanation:

mass of both the balls, m = 100 g

heat lost by iron is 3.6 kJ and the heat lost by aluminium is 7.2 kJ.

The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of substance by 1°C of mass 1 kg is defined as the specific heat of the substance.

Here, the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of aluminium by teh same amount as that of iron and mass remains same, so it means the opecific heat of aluminium is more than the specific heat of iron.

What is the relationship between thickness of lens and focal length?​
Ymorist [56]

Thick lens will have shorter and consequently thin lens will have greater focal length. Because, For a thick lens, the optical path length of the light is more, than for a thin lens, thus, the bending of light will be more in case of a thicker lens. Consequently, it has a shorter focal length.

When is the magnitude of the acceleration of a mass on a spring at its maximum value?
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

A. when the mass has a speed of zero

Explanation:

In mass-spring system, the velocity and the acceleration are in anti-phase, which means that when one of the two quantities is maximum, the other one is zero, and vice-versa.

In fact:

- When the displacement of the spring is zero (x=0), the velocity is maximum, due to conservation of energy. In fact, as the displacement is zero, the elastic potential energy of the system (given by \frac{1}{2}kx^2) is zero, therefore the kinetic energy (given by \frac{1}{2}mv^2) must be maximum, and so the velocity (v) is also maximum. On the cotnrary, acceleration (a) is directly proportional to the restoring force of the spring, given by

F=-kx

so we see that when x=0, then the force is zero: F=0, and so the acceleration is zero as well.

- When the displacement of the spring is maximum, the velocity is zero, due to conservation of energy. In fact, as the displacement is maximum, the elastic potential energy of the system (given by \frac{1}{2}kx^2) is maximum, therefore the kinetic energy (given by \frac{1}{2}mv^2) must be zero, and so the velocity (v) is also zero. On the cotnrary, since acceleration (a) is directly proportional to the restoring force of the spring, given by

F=-kx

so we see that when x=maximum, then the force is maximum, and so the acceleration is maximum as well.

Based on this, the correct answer is

A. when the mass has a speed of zero

An empty parallel plate capacitor is connected between the terminals of a 18.8-V battery and charges up. The capacitor is then d
Basile [38]

Answer:

p.d' = 37.6 V

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Potential difference p.d=18.8V

New Capacitor C_1=C_2/2

Generally the equation for Capacitor capacitance is mathematically given by

C=\frac{eA}{d}

Generally the equation for New p.d' is mathematically given by

 C_2V=C_1*p.d'

  p.d' = 2V

 p.d'= 2 * 18.8

 p.d' = 37.6 V
