Place the two thermometers outdoors in different locations. Place one in direct sunlight and the other in shade. Make sure that

the thermometers are in a secure location so they will not fall or blow away. Do you think that there will be a difference in temperature between these two locations over a period of one week? Write down your prediction.

Yes

Explanation:

There would be a difference in temperature between the two places over the time interval.

What is temperature?

Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of a body. It is measured  using a thermometer as described in the set up.

Temperature changes is a result of heat transfer.

The sun is the ultimate source of energy for the earth.

It transfers heat to the earth by radiation.

Under a shade, the tree leaves or shed will cut off the radiation preventing it from reaching the surface. This place will be cool and at a lower temperature than expected.

The thermometer furnished with direct sunlight will have a higher temperature. As the radiation from sun hits the surface, it causes it to warm up and increase in temperature. This will cause the thermometer's temperature to also rise.

What is angular velocity
butalik [34]

Answer:

angular velocity(ω) is the rate change of angular displacement.

ω=θ/t and it SI unit is rad/s

Explanation:

this is very similar with the definition of linear velocity (rate of change of displacement). it specifies the angular speed of an object and the axis about which the object is rotating.

A man, holding a weight in each hand, stands at the center of a horizontal frictionless rotating turntable. The effect of the we
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

 w = 2w₀     the angular velocity of man doubles

Explanation:

In this exercise, releasing the weights reduces the moment of inertia

       I= I₀ / 2

Therefore, since the platform system plus man is isolated, the kinetic moment must be conserved

         L₀ = L

       I₀ w₀ = I w

       I₀ w₀ = I₀ / 2 w

       w = 2w₀

therefore the angular velocity of man doubles

A pneumatic system consists of several identical 1.5 inch diameter cylinders to lift 450-pound pallets in a warehouse. the gauge
DerKrebs [107]
The applicable equation:

P = F/A

P = pressure
F = Force or weight
A = surface area

Pressure on each cylinder = (W/n)/A
Where n = number of cylinders. Additionally, pressure in the reservoir is equivalent to the pressure in each cylinder.
Net pressure =  75 - 14.7 = 60.3 psi

Therefore,
60.3 = (W/n)/A = (450/n)/(πD^2/4) = (450/n)/(π*1.5^2/4) = (450/n)/(1.7671)
60.3*1.7671 = 450/n
106.03 = 450/n
n = 450/106.3 = 4.244 ≈ 5

The number of cylinders is 5.
