Answer:
ΔL = 0.66 m
Explanation:
The change in length on an object due to rise in temperature is given by the following equation of linear thermal expansion:
ΔL = αLΔT
where,
ΔL = Change in Length of the bridge = ?
α = Coefficient of linear thermal expansion = 11 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹
L = Original Length of the Bridge = 1000 m
ΔT = Change in Temperature = Final Temperature - Initial Temperature
ΔT = 40°C - (-20°C) = 60°C
Therefore,
ΔL = (11 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹)(1000 m)(60°C)
<u>ΔL = 0.66 m</u>
Answer:
16.63min
Explanation:
The question is about the period of the comet in its orbit.
To find the period you can use one of the Kepler's law:
T: period
G: Cavendish constant = 6.67*10^-11 Nm^2 kg^2
r: average distance = 1UA = 1.5*10^11m
M: mass of the sun = 1.99*10^30 kg
By replacing you obtain:
the comet takes around 16.63min
Answer:
The difference between ice and steam in Celsius (Centigrade) is 100 deg.
So the difference between and 4 cm and 24 cm of the thread corresponds to 100 deg C.
So 8 cm is 4 cm greater than the ice point
4 cm / 20 cm = 1/5 since the steam point and the ice point are 20 cm apart
Then 1/5 * 100 deg C = 20 deg C the requested temperature
D) The speed of a wave slows as it travels at different speed in different media.
