Answer:
α = 3×10^-5 K^-1
Explanation:
let ΔL be the change in length of the bar of metal, ΔT be the change in temperature, L be the original length of the metal bar and let α be the coefficient of linear expansion.
then, the coefficient of linear expansion is given by:
α = ΔL/(ΔT×L)
= (0.3×10^-3)/(100)(100×10^-3)
= 3×10^-5 K^-1
Therefore, the coefficient of linear expansion is 3×10^-5 K^-1
Answer:
A collision in which both total momentum and total kinetic energy are conserved
Explanation:
In classical physics, we have two types of collisions:
- Elastic collision: elastic collision is a collision in which both the total momentum of the objects involved and the total kinetic energy of the objects involved are conserved
- Inelastic collision: in an inelastic collision, the total momentum of the objects involved is conserved, while the total kinetic energy is not. In this type of collisions, part of the total kinetic energy is converted into heat or other forms of energy due to the presence of frictional forces. When the objects stick together after the collision, the collisions is called 'perfectly inelastic collision'
A wall uses diffuse reflection while a mirror uses specular reflection. For example, when parallel light rays enter a mirror, they remain parallel when exiting the mirror, allowing you to see a reflection of the light rays. On the contrary, when incident light rays enter a wall which is painted, the rays scatter, not allowing you to see anything but a painted wall.
Correct answer is letter B. sandstone
