What is thermal expansion and how does it relate to heat?

Physics
1 answer:
kiruha [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

"The idea behind thermal expansion is that gases expand as the temperature increases. If you have a balloon and you heat up the contents, the balloon will get larger. Scientists use the term ideal gas law to describe this activity. Liquids expand and contract, too, but there is a lot less change than in gases."

I don't know if this is what u meant, but, hope this helps :3

A stream moving with a speed of 7.1 m/s reaches a point where the cross-sectional area of the stream decreases to one half of th
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

14.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Speed of the stream, v₁ = 7.1 m/s

let the cross section area at initial point be A₁

now area at the second point, A₂ = (1/2)A₁ = 0.5A₁

now, from the continuity equation, we have

A₁v₁ = A₂v₂

where, v₂ is the velocity at the narrowed portion

thus, on substituting the values, we get

A₁ × 7.1 = 0.5A₁ × v₂

or

v₂ = 14.2 m/s

Which term describes the number of joules used per second by a circuit?
jasenka [17]

Answer:

B) Power

Explanation:

The power is defined by the following equation:

P = W / t

where:

W = work = Force * Distance = [Newton] * [meter]

t = time = seconds

The units for work are give en Newton per second, which is equal to Joules

And for power the unit used commonly is Watts, therefore:

Watts = (Joule/second)

What are organelles? Describe the role of two organelles within the cell.
zloy xaker [14]
Organelles are small structures found in cells that carry out certain tasks. Two examples of organelles are the Nucleus and the Mitochondria. Think of the nucleus as the brain of its cell, it controls activities and it contains a majority of the cells genetic material. The mitochondria is the part of the cells tasked with cellular respiration, which is the act of taking nutrients from a cell and turning it into energy.
