A thermally isolated system is made up of a hot piece of aluminum and a cold piece of copper; the aluminum and the copper are in

thermal contact. The specific heat capacity of aluminum is more than double that of copper. Which object experiences the greater temperature change during the time the system takes to reach thermal equilibrium?

Answer:

copper will have more change in temperature as compare with aluminum

Explanation:

Hot piece of copper is made in contact with cold piece of aluminium

So here thermal energy transfer will take place from copper to aluminium

so by energy conservation we can say that heat given by copper is same as the heat absorbed by aluminium.

now we have

m_1s_1\Delta T_1 = m_2s_2\Delta T_2

here we know that

s_1 = specific heat capacity of copper

s_2 = specific heat capacity of aluminum

given that specific heat capacity of aluminium is more than double that of copper

so we can say

s_2 = 2s_1

so here if the mass of copper and aluminium is same then

\Delta T_1 = 2 \Delta T_2

so temperature change of copper is twice the temperature change of aluminium

So copper will have more change in temperature as compare with aluminum

Korolek [52]

The answer is gravitational force. The gravitational force between the earth and the moon is the similar as between any other two masses in space.

Newton clarified that the force of attraction between two masses is the outcome of the weight of object one multiplied by the weight of objects two multiplied by the gravitational constant divided by the space between the two masses squared.

Answer:

There is no scientific evidence that playing specifically l badminton makes you a better person, but sport and exercise in general release hormones which can make you feel more happy therefore making you nicer to the people around you and 'a better person'.

Help with this question plz and show how you got it :) tysm!

The hardest part of the job is to find the right formula to use, and write it down. You've already done that ! The rest is just turning the crank until an answer falls out.

You wrote. E = m g h.
Beautiful.
Now divide each side by (g h), and you'll have the formula for mass:

m = E / (g h).

You know all the numbers on the right side. Just pluggum in, do the arithmetic, and you'll have the mass.

The answer would be “B” because humans would need water, protection from radiation so we don’t melt or burn to death lol, and a gaseous atmosphere because we would need oxygen.
