Answer:

Temperature decreases because the number of collision of the molecules decreases as they escape or evaporate. Molecules are in constant motion. Increase in temperature leads to increase in average kinetic energy of the molecules.

Due to radiation and absorption, what is the maximum flame temperature in a fire?

ludmilkaskok [199]

The maximum flame temperature in a fire is 1500-1600K due to radiation and absorption.

<h3>What do you mean by radiation and absorption?</h3>

In physics, matter (usually electrons bound in atoms) absorbs electromagnetic radiation in order to convert the energy of a photon into the internal energy of the absorber (for example, thermal energy). Attenuation, or the steady decrease in light wave intensity as it travels through a medium, is a prominent effect. In some circumstances (optics), the medium's transparency changes by a factor that varies as a function of wave intensity, leading to saturable absorption (or nonlinear absorption), even though the absorption of waves typically does not depend on their intensity (linear absorption).

Suppose that you'd like to find out if a distant star is moving relative to the earth. The star is much too far away to detect a

rjkz [21]

Answer:

The speed will be "18km/s". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

According to the question, the values are:

Wavelength,

$\lambda = 656.46 \ nm$

$\Delta \lambda = 0.04$

$c=3\times 10^8$

As we know,

⇒ $\frac{\Delta \lambda}{\lambda} =\frac{v}{c}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $\frac{656.46}{0.04} =\frac{v}{3\times 10^8}$

⇒ $v=\frac{656.46}{0.04} (3\times 10^8)$

⇒ $=16411.5\times 3\times 10^8$

⇒ $=18280 \ m/s$

or,

⇒ $=18 \ km/s$

Coulomb's Law

Given:

F = 3.0 x 10^-3 Newton

d = 6.0 x 10^2 meters

Q1 = 3.3x 10^-8 Coulombs

k = 9.0 x 10^9 Newton*m^2/Coulombs^2

Required:

Q2 =?

Formula:

F = k • Q1 • Q2 / d²

Solution:

So, to solve for Q2

Q2 = F • d²/ k • Q1

Q2 = (3.0 x 10^-3 Newton) • (6.0 x 10^2 m)² / (9.0 x 10^9 Newton*m²/Coulombs²) • (3.3x 10^-8 Coulombs)

Q2 = (3.0 x 10^-3 Newton) • (360 000 m²) / (297 Newton*m²/Coulombs)

Q2 = 1080 Newton*m²/ (297 Newton*m²/Coulombs)

Then, take the reciprocal of the denominator and start multiplying

Q2 = 1080 • 1 Coulombs/297

Q2 = 1080 Coulombs / 297

Q2 = 3.63636363636 Coulombs

Q2 = 3.64 Coulumbs

You have landed on an unknown planet, newtonia, and want to know what objects will weigh there. you find that when a certain too

AleksandrR [38]

Refer to the diagram shown.

Because the surface is frictionless, the resistive for, R, is zero.

Let m = the mass of the object.
Let a = acceleration due to the applied force.
Therefore
12.7 N = (m kg)*(a m/s²)
a = 12.7/m m/s²

The object travels 16.1 m in 2.5 s, starting from rest. Therefore
16.1 N = (1/2)*(12.7/m m/s²)*(2.5 s)² = 39.6875/m N
m = 16.1/39.6875 = 0.4057 kg

For freefall, let g = acceleration due to gravity.
The time to fall from 10.3 m is 2.88 s, therefore
10.3 m = (1/2)*(g m/s²)*(2.88 s)² = 4.1472g m
g = 10.3/4.1472 = 2.484 m/s²

Answer:
The gravitational acceleration on the planet is 2.5 m/s² (nearest tenth)
