the specific heat of gold is 0.031 calories degrees Celsius and the specific heat of silver is 0.057 calories degrees Celsius so
givi [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Specific heat of gold  = 0.031cal/°C

Specific heat of silver  = 0.057cal/°C

To know the metals that will heat up faster, we must understand the meaning of specific heat capacity.

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1g of a substance by 1°C.

Now,

The higher the specific heat capacity the more energy it is required to heat up the substance.

So, Gold with a specific heat capacity of 0.031cal/°C  will heat up faster.

About how long does it take ocean water to travel around a gyre?
mylen [45]
The Gulf Stream, for example, has an average speed of 4 mph, or 100 miles/day, or 3600 miles/year, in round numbers. A complete circuit around the Atlantic is 8 or 10 thousand miles, which would take around 3 years on a raft.

The maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through 180^\circ .
vlabodo [156]

Answer: 90\°

Explanation:

The Compton Shift \Delta \lambda in wavelength when the photons are scattered is given by the following equation:

\Delta \lambda=\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)     (1)

Where:

\lambda_{c}=2.43(10)^{-12} m is a constant whose value is given by \frac{h}{m_{e}c}, being h the Planck constant, m_{e} the mass of the electron and c the speed of light in vacuum.

\theta) the angle between incident phhoton and the scatered photon.

We are told the maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through 180\°:

\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-cos(180\°))     (2)

\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-(-1))    

\Delta \lambda_{max}=2\lambda_{c}     (3)

Now, let's find the angle that will produce a fourth of this maximum value found in (3):

\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{4}2\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)      (4)

\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)      (5)

If we want \frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}, 1-cos\theta   must be equal to 1:

1-cos\theta=1   (6)

Finding \theta:

1-1=cos\theta

0=cos\theta  

\theta=cos^{-1} (0)  

Finally:

\theta=90\°    This is the scattering angle that will produce \frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}
