Although internal energy<span> will not spontaneously flow from a cold region to a hot region, it can be forced to do so by doing work on the system.</span>Refrigerators<span> and </span>heat pumps<span> are examples of </span>heat engines<span> which cause energy to be transferred from a cold area to a hot area. Usually this is done with the aid of a </span>phase change<span>, i.e., a refrigerant liquid is forced to evaporate and extract energy from the cold area.

natita [175]

Answer:

v = 27.456 m/s

Explanation:

The support pressure needed of the water in the straw can be calculated by the formula

Given that,

P = r*g*h

= 1000*9.8*0.05 Pa.= 490 Pa

This pressure is compensated by 0.5*r*v^2 of the air,

Hence,

0.5*1.3*v^2 = 490

velocity of air blown into the straw =

v = 27.456 m/s

Explain Newton's third law in your own words.
Kazeer [188]
Newton's third law states "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

What this is pretty much saying is that for every action, there is a consequence. One force connects and triggers another.

Coherent microwaves of wavelength 5.00 cm enter a tall, narrow window in a building otherwise essentially opaque to the microwav
zzz [600]
The solution for this problem is:

For 1st minimum, let m be equal to 1. 

d = slit width

D = screen distance. 

Θ = arcsin (m * lambda/ (d))


= 0.13934 rad, 7.9836 deg 

y = D*tan (Θ)

y = 6.50 * tan (7.9836)

= 0.91161 m is the distance from the central maximum to the first-order minimum

The wavelength of a light wave is 700 nm in air; this light appears red. If this wave enters a pool of water, its wavelength bec
hodyreva [135]

Answer

given,

wavelength of light in air = 700 nm

Wavelength of light in water = 530 nm

We know that speed of light changes when it moves from one medium to another.

And the frequency of the wavelength does not changes if the medium changes.

we also know that,

                                    v = ν λ

From the above equation we can say that if frequency is constant so, with the change in  velocity changes wavelength will also change.

Hence, wavelength is the property of the wave which determines color.
