You are in the frozen food section of the grocery store and you notice that your hand gets cold when you place it on the glass w

indows of the display cases. Your friend says this is because coolness is transferred from the display case to your hand. What do you think?

Answer:

I think my friend got it all wrong, as coolness can not be transferred but heat was actually transferred between my hand and the glass windows

Explanation:

In thermodynamics, coolness can not be transferred, only heat can be transferred

Here is how the mechanism of why i felt cold works, my body gave out heat, hence there was heat transfer from a region of high to a low heat region, equilibrium was reached and I started feeling the coolness in my hands.

Answer:

Speed of light

Explanation:

The famous Einstein's equation is:

E=mc^2

where

E is the energy

m is the mass

c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

In this equation, Einstein summarized the following fact: mass can be converted into energy, and the amount of energy released in such a process is given by the equation.

An example of application of this equation is the nuclear fusion process. In a nuclear fusion, two lighter nuclei combine into a heavier nucleus. However, the mass of the heavier nucleus is slightly less than the sum of the masses of the two original nuclei: some of the mass of the original nuclei has been converted into energy, accorging to the previous equation.

Which electromagnetic wave has the lowest frequencies (less than 3×109 hertz)?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Radio waves

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum includes all different types of waves, which are usually classified depending on their frequency. Ordering them from the highest frequency to the lowest frequency, they are:

- Gamma rays

- X-rays

- Ultraviolet

- Visible light

- Infrared radiation

- Microwaves

- Radio waves

Radio waves are the electromagnetic waves with lowest frequency, their frequency is lower than 300 GHz (3\cdot 10^{11} Hz) and therefore they are the electromagnetic waves with lowest energy (in fact, the energy of an electromagnetic wave is proportional to its frequency). They are generally used for radio and telecommunications since this type of waves can travel up to long distances.

A student shakes a rope such that 20 complete vibrations are made in 4.00 seconds. Determine the vibrational frequency of the ro
fgiga [73]

Answer:

The vibrational frequency of the rope is 5 Hz.

Explanation:

Given;

number of complete oscillation of the rope, n = 20

time taken to make the oscillations, t = 4.00 s

The vibrational frequency of the rope is calculated as follows;

Frequency = \frac{number \ of \ complete \ vibrations}{time \ taken} \\\\Frequency = \frac{20 }{4 \ s} \\\\Frequency = 5 \ Hz

Therefore, the vibrational frequency of the rope is 5 Hz.

Ms. Stafford wants to try racing with a push start. A student pushes her at 5 m/s before the rocket kicks in. The rocket still o
Gnom [1K]
The initial velocity of Ms. Stafford is v_0 = 5 m/s, while her acceleration is 
a=4 m/s^2
This is a uniform accelerated motion, so we can calculate the total distance travelled by Ms. Stafford in a time of t=7.0 s using the law of motion for a uniform accelerated motion:
S=v_0t +  \frac{1}{2} at^2 = (5 m/s)(7.0 s)+ \frac{1}{2}(2 m/s^2)(7.0 s)^2 = 84 m
