I'm assuming you want the first law of thermodynamics.
The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy and cannot be created or destroyed. It can, however, be transferred from one location to another and can be converted into other forms of energy.
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>Instant Velocity and Acceleration
</u>
Give the position of an object as a function of time y(x), the instant velocity can be obtained by
Where y'(x) is the first derivative of y respect to time x. The instant acceleration is given by
We are given the function for y
Note we have changed the last term to be quadratic, so the question has more sense.
The velocity is
And the acceleration is
The angle that the cart rolls with the horizontal. The closer the ramp gets to 90 degrees the faster the cart will accelerate.
Radiation: Getting sunburnt on a beach.
- The sun’s radiation (no direct contact) is what causes the skin to burn.
Radiation: Microwave cooking food
- Microwaves use radiation to heat the food inside of it; between radio waves and infrared radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum
Conduction: Touching a hot car seat in the summer
- Conduction is the transfer of heat by direct contact (hand to seat).
Conduction: Burning yourself with a curling iron (Similar to above; direct contact).
Convection: An ocean breeze
- Convection near coastlines cause the transfer of energy; water warms and cools slower than land.
Conduction: Sliding down a hot metal slide in august
- You are in direct contact with the slide, which is hot due to the temperature.
Convection: Water in a boiling pot of macaroni
- The water, a liquid, is being heated by molecular motion.
Convection: Currents deep within the earth that cause tectonic plates to move
- Convection currents drive the movement of tectonic plates in the mantle, which is fluid/molten. The currents circulate under the asthenosphere.
