Answer: A

Explanation:

Molecules speed up as heat is added

For example when water is heated as the water gets hotter the molecules speed up causing the water to boil and change phases into a gas (this is called evaporation)

In an ice cube the water molecules are frozen (barely moving compressed tight together) as the ice cube heats up the molecules start speeding up and moving further apart as the ice cube turns into liquid form. So as heat is added molecules speed up, move faster and spread further apart

Thermal Conductors don't have to be hot to transfer heat, explain a situation when a ice cube would still transfer heat to anoth

barxatty [35]

An ice cube would transfer heat to another object whose temperature
is lower than zero°C (32°F).

A block of "dry ice" is sitting there at a temperature of -78°C (-109°F).
An ice cube helps to melt dry ice nice and fast.

If you could find a block of solid nitrogen, its temperature would be
63K (-210°C, -346°F). An ice cube would transfer heat to that baby
so fast that it would instantly boil.

Two identical satellites are in orbit about the earth. One orbit has a radius r and the other 2r. The centripetal force on the s

velikii [3]

Answer:

the centripetal force on the satellite in the larger orbit is _one fourth_ as that on the satellite in the smaller orbit.

Explanation:

Mass of satellite, m

orbit radius of first, r1 = r

orbit radius of second, r2 = 2r

Centripetal force is given by

$F= \frac{mv^{2}}{r}$

Where v be the orbital velocity, which is given by

$v=\sqrt{gr}$

So, the centripetal force is given by

$F= \frac{mgr}}{r}}=mg$

where, g bet the acceleration due to gravity

$g=\frac{GM}{r^{2}}$

So, the centripetal force

$F= \frac{GMm}}{r^{2}}}$

Gravitational force on the satellite having larger orbit

$F= \frac{GMm}{4r^{2}}$ .... (1)

Gravitational force on the satellite having smaller orbit

$F'= \frac{GMm}{r^{2}}$ .... (2)

Comparing (1) and (2),

F' = 4 F

So, the centripetal force on the satellite in the larger orbit is _one fourth_ as that on the satellite in the smaller orbit.

Plz help!!!!! Due tomorrow Analyze the weather map in 2 to 3 complete sentences. Describe what the weather will be in Olympia, W

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Very sorry if this is late

Explanation:

Currently, in Olympia, Washington, it is raining because a cold front with high pressure has met an area with low pressure. This occurs due to the fact that storms are caused by sudden differences in air pressure.
