Explain why the thermometer has thin walls on its bulb?

Physics
1 answer:
dezoksy [38]3 years ago
7 0
The glass around the bulb in a clinical thermometer (the conventional one) is <span>thin because glass is not a good conductor of heat. The clinician and the
</span>patient don't want to wait half an hour to get a good temperature reading. By <span>using the thinner glass, the transfer of heat into the thermometer's fluid will</span>

If an object absorbs all colors but red, we see
julia-pushkina [17]
[I researched for you, since I am not in that particular level to know that knowledge yet. I assure this is accurate info :)]

The answer is A, red.
"Remember, the color you see is light REFLECTING off the surface of that object. If all colors are absorbed in to the surface EXCEPT red, red must be reflected, and you'll see red." - Yahoo User @Chap

Describe the composition of the nucleus of an atom.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

Explanation:the atom consists of a tiny nucleus at its center which is surrounded by a moving electrons. The nucleus contains a positively charged proton equal in size with the negatively charged electrons . The nucleus also may contain neutrons which have the same mass with the protons but no charge is neutral.

An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor and accelerates to the positive plate (see
siniylev [52]

Answer:

3.88 * 10^(-15) J

Explanation:

We know that the Potential energy of the electron at the beginning of its motion is equal to the Kinetic energy at the end of its motion, when it reaches the plates.

First, we get the potential and potential energy:

Electric potential = E * r

E = electric field

r = distance between plates

Potential = 2.2 * 10^6 * 0.011

= 2.42 * 10^4 V

The relationship between electric potential and potential energy is:

P. E. = q*V

q = charge of electron = 1.602 * 10^(-19) C

P. E. = 2.42 * 10^4 * 1.602 * 10^(-19)

P. E. = 3.88 * 10^(-15) J

You go to the hardware store to buy a new 50 ft garden hose. You find you can choose between hoses of ½ inch and 5/8 inch inner
omeli [17]

To solve this problem it is necessary to consider two concepts. The first of these is the flow rate that can be defined as the volumetric quantity that a channel travels in a given time. The flow rate can also be calculated from the Area and speed, that is,

Q = V*A

Where,

A= Cross-sectional Area

V = Velocity

The second concept related to the calculation of this problem is continuity, which is defined as the proportion that exists between the input channel and the output channel. It is understood as well as the geometric section of entry and exit, defined as,

Q_1 = Q_2

V_1A_1=V_2A_2

Our values are given as,

A_1=\frac{1}{2}^2*\pi=0.785 in^2

A_2=\frac{5}{8}^2*\pi=1.227 in^2

Re-arrange the equation to find the first ratio of rates we have:

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{A_2}{A_1}

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{1.227}{0.785}

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=1.56

The second ratio of rates is

\frac{V2}{V1}=\frac{A_1}{A2}

\frac{V2}{V1}=\frac{0.785}{1.227}

\frac{V2}{V1}=0.640
