C. copper

Explanation:

Copper is the best conductor of heat from the given options. Plastic, wood and cotton are all poor conductors other wise known as insulators.

Metals are typically good conductors of heat.

  • they generally do not have a high specific heat capacity which implies that they get heated easily.
  • a good conductor allows heat to flow fast and it simultaneously loses heat readily too.
  • copper is a good conductor, when heat its perfectly allows heat to pass through
  • when heat is removed, it loses it very fast.

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

E = 124.7 N / C

Explanation:

Let's analyze the exercise: the microwave creates an electromagnetic wave of frequency F = 2.45 GHz, this wave is introduced into the microwave cavity and is reflected on the metal walls, which is why one or more standing waves are formed.

The electric field of the standing wave is

            I = E²

            E =√I

where I is the intensity of the radiation.

What is it

             I = P / A

where P is the effective emission power, almost all the power of the microwave and A is the area of ​​the cavity, in the most used microwaves

P = 700 W and the area is A = 25 x 18 cm² = 0.045 m²

             I = 700 / 0.045

             I = 15555.56 W/m²

let's calculate the electric field

            E = √15555.56

            E = 124.7 N / C

AysviL [449]

Answer:

<em>The K.E from A to B won't increase...</em>

Explanation:

That's because the P.E from A to B is increasing. The K.E will increase if charge moves from a higher potential to a lower potential i.e., from B to A.

That is the reason there is no effect on net K.E when moving from a potential to same potential over and over (A to C).

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

3°C

Explanation:

We can that heat Q=mc_p dT

Where m is the mass c_p = specific heat capacity

dT = Temperature difference

here we have given m=625 g =.625 kg

specific heat of granite =0.79 J/(g-K) = 0.79 KJ/(kg-k)

T_1 =25°C

T_2 we have to find

we have also given Q=10.9 KJ

10.9=0.625×0.79×(25-T_2)

25-T_2 =22

T_2=3°C
