Answer:
The average kinetic energy of the molecules increases
Explanation:
The temperature of a substance is proportional to the average kinetic energy of the particles in the substance.
In fact, for an ideal gas for instance, there is the following relationship:
where
KE is the average kinetic energy of the particles
k is the Boltzmann's constant
T is the absolute temperature of the gas
When we heat a substance (such as the flask of water in this problem), we are giving thermal energy to the particles of the substance; therefore, these particles will move faster on average, so their kinetic energy will increase (and the temperature of the substance will increase as well).
Answer:
Explanation:
To add or subtract two vectors, add or subtract the corresponding components. Let →u=⟨u1,u2⟩ and →v=⟨v1,v2⟩ be two vectors. The sum of two or more vectors is called the resultant. The resultant of two vectors can be found using either the parallelogram method or the triangle method .
Answer:
New Resistance = 0.5556 ohm
Explanation:
Resistance = resistivity * length /area
Here since resistivity and length are constant, we only need to see how the resistance increases or decreases with change in area.
New Area = pi * (3*D)^2 / 4
Old Area = pi * D^2 / 4
The ratio of new area / old area is :
Since area increases 9 times, and it is inversely proportional to resistance:
Resistance decreases by 9 times.
So, old resistance = Voltage / Current = 10 / 2 = 5 ohm
New Resistance = 5 / 9 = 0.5556 ohm (decreases by 9 times)
Answer:
-0.0789 m
Explanation:
Recall that the y-component comes associated with the sin(18.4) through the following trigonometric relationship:
y = 0.250 sin(-18.4) ≈ -0.0789 m
Notice it is negative since it is below the x-axis.
