Why cooking pans don't have have metal handles?

Physics
2 answers:
Harrizon [31]3 years ago
4 0


metals are conductors, meaning that heat travels through it better than insulators such as plastic (commonly used for pan handles)

Therefore, to avoid the heat burning hands, most pans don't have metal handles.

Probably because during cooking they will also be hot and you won't be able to handle it.

What linear speed must an earth satellite have to be in a circular orbit at an altitude of 159 km?
IgorLugansk [536]
Gravitational acceleration, g = GM/r^2. Additionally, for a satellite in a circular orbit, g = v^2/r

Where, G = Gravitational constant, M = Mass of earth, r = distance from the center of the earth to the satellite, v = linear speed of the satellite.

Equating the two expressions;
v^2/r = GM/r^2
v = Sqrt (GM/r);
But GM = Constant = 398600.5 km^3/sec^2
r = Altitude+Radius of the earth = 159+6371 = 6530 km

Substituting;
v = Sqrt (398600.5/6530) = 7.81 km/sec = 781 m/s

Emily wanted to see what battery lasted the longest. She put each battery into a clock and recorded the time that the clock stop
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

This question is asking to identify the following variables:

Independent variable (IV): Battery

Dependent variable (DV): Time the clock stopped

Constant: Same clock

Control: No stated control

Explanation:

The independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is subject to manipulation or change by the experimenter. In this experiment, the independent variable is the BATTERIES (Duracell, Energizer, Kroger brand, EverReady).

The dependent variable is the variable that responds to the changes made to the independent variable. It is the variable that the experimenter measures. In this case, the dependent variable is the TIME IT TAKES FOR THE CLOCK TO STOP.

Constants or control variable is the variable that the experimenter keeps constant or unchanged for all groups throughout the experiment in order not to influence the outcome of the experiment. The constant in this case is the SAME CLOCK USED.

Control group is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment or independent variable in an experiment. In this case, all groups received a different kind of battery.

If you dribble a basketball with a frequency of 1.77 Hz, how long does it take for you to complete 12 dribbles?
Licemer1 [7]
<h2>It takes 6.78 seconds to complete 12 dribbles.</h2>

Explanation:

Frequency of dribble = 1.77 Hz

That is

         Number of dribbles in 1 second = 1.77

         \texttt{Time taken for 1 dribble = }\frac{1}{1.77}=0.565s

Now we need to find how long does it take for you to complete 12 dribbles.

         Time taken for 12 dribbles = 12 x Time taken for 1 dribble

         Time taken for 12 dribbles = 12 x 0.565

         Time taken for 12 dribbles = 6.78 seconds      

It takes 6.78 seconds to complete 12 dribbles.

A gang of robbers is escaping across city roofs at night. They come to the edge of one building and need to drop down to their g
REY [17]

Answer:

a) They will hit the ground with a speed of 19.6 m/s.

b) They are at a height of 20 m.

c) It is not a safe jump.

Explanation:

Hi there!

a) The equations of height and velocity in function of time of a free falling body are the following:

h = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

h = height of the object at time t.

h0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering downward as negative direction).

v = velocity of the object at time t.

Using the equation of velocity, let's find the velocity at which they will hit the ground. The pebble is dropped (initial velocity = 0) and it takes 2 s to reach the ground:

v = v0 + g · t     (v0 = 0)

v = g · t

v = -9.8 m/s² · 2.0 s

v = -19.6 m/s

They will hit the ground with a speed of 19.6 m/s.

b)Now, we have to use the equation of height:

h = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

If we place the origin of the frame of reference on the ground, we have to find the initial height (h0) knowing that at t = 2.0 s, h = 0 m

0 m = h0 - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (2.0 s)²

h0 = 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (2.0 s)²

h0 = 20 m

They are at a height of 20 m.

c)According to a NASA paper (Issues on Human Acceleration Tolerance After Long-Duration Space Flights, figure 10), if you fall with a vertical velocity greater than 17 m/s it is unlikely that you will survive. So, it is not a safe jump.
