We shall consider two properties:
1. Temperature difference
2. Thermal conductivity of the material
Use a cylindrical rod of a given material (say steel) which is insulated around its circumference.
One end of the rod is dipped in a large reservoir of water at 100 deg.C and the other end is dipped in water (with known volume) at 40 deg. C. The cold water if stored in a cylinder which is insulated on all sides. A thermometer reads the temperature of the cold water as a function of time.
This experiment will show that
(a) heat flows from a region of high temperature to a region of lower temperature.
(b) The thermal energy of a body increases when heat is added to it, and its temperature will rise.
(c) The thermal conductivity of water determines how quickly its temperature will rise. If mercury replaces water in the cold cylinder, its temperature will rise at a different rate because its thermal conductivity is different.
Answer:
1.125m/s^2
Explanation:
Since acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity with respect to time. Mathematically
v^2= u^2+2as
Where a,v,u and s are the acceleration, final velocity, initial velocity and distance respectively.
a = ?
u = 0m/s
v = 15m/s
s = 100m
Substituting the values into the formula above
v^2= u^2+2as
15^2=0^2+2×a×100
225= 0+200a
225= 200a
Divide both sides by 200
225/200 = 200a/200
a= 1.125m/s^2
Hence the acceleration of the car is 1.125m/s^2.
Note that the car accelerated uniformly from rest, that was why the initial velocity was 0m/s
Answer: Volume of a gas is inversely proportional to pressure of that gas in any container.
Explanation:
Hi, according to Boyle's Gas law, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure of that gas, at a constant temperature.
The expression is:
P1.V1= P2.V2
V= 1/P
PV = k
Where:
P = pressure of a gas
V = volume of a gas
k = constant

Answer:
The transformation went from a gas to a solid which is a Deposition
Explanation:
Deposition is the phase transition in which gas transforms into solid without passing through the liquid phase. Deposition is a thermodynamic process. The reverse of deposition is sublimation and hence sometimes deposition is called desublimation.
