What is the total energy of all the particles in a substance?

1 answer:

5 0

The faster the particles are moving, the more energy they have. Temperature is the average amount of energy of motion of each particle of a substance. That is, temperature is a measure of how hot or cold a substance is. In contrast, the total energy of motion in the particles of a substance is called thermal energy.

Tarzan and Jane. Because of your concern that incorrect science is being taught to children when they watch cartoons on TV, you

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The maximum height Tarzan and Jane can swing as a fraction of her initial heigh is ⅓h

Explanation:

Let

m = Mass of Tarzan

M = Mass of Jane

Given

M = 2m

To calculate the maximum height Tarzan and Jane can swing, we make use of the potential energy at their initial and final position.

Reason being that;

At both the initial and final position, velocity is 0, so there's no kinetic energy.

And the potential energy remains the same (i.e constant) at any given point in the system.

Using P.E = mgh.

At initial position, PE1 = mgh

At final position, PE2 = (m + M)gH.

Where h and H represent the initial and final heights.

m + M is the new weight after Jane and Tarzan swing

Equating PE1 to PE2

mgh = (m + M)gH

By substituton (M = 2m)

mgh = (m + 2m)gH

mgh = 3mgH

Make H the subject of the formula

H = mgh/3mg

H = ⅓h

Hence, the maximum height Tarzan and Jane can swing as a fraction of her initial heigh is ⅓h

From the question, the new height looks to be about ½ that of Jane's original position; i.e. ½h

The calculated height is smaller than what the cartoon is showing;

We can conclude that the cartoon is wrong.

What material parameters determine resistivity?

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Resistivity $\rho =\frac{RA}{l}$

It depends upon cross sectional area and length of material

Explanation:

The resistance of any material is given by $R=\frac{\rho l}{A}$ , here $\rho$ is the resistivity of material , l is length of material and A is cross sectional area

So resistivity $\rho =\frac{RA}{l}$

So resistuivity of any material depends upon area of cross section and length of material

If cross sectional area will be more then resistivity will be more. And is length of the material will be more then resistivity will be less

Shrinking Loop. A circular loop of flexible iron wire has an initial circumference of 168 cm , but its circumference is decreasi

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

103.1 V

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial circumference=C=168 cm

$\frac{dC}{dt}=-15cm/s$

Magnetic field,B=0.9 T

We have to find the magnitude of the emf induced in the loop after exactly time 8 s has passed since the circumference of the loop started to decrease.

Magnetic flux= $\phi=BA=B(\pi r^2)$
