What does elastic collision mean?

Physics
1 answer:
OLga [1]3 years ago
7 0
An elastic collision is an encounter between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies after the encounter is equal to their total kinetic energy before the encounter. Elastic collisions occur only if there is no net conversion of kinetic energy into other forms (such as heat or noise).

Adding or removing thermal energy to or from a substance does not always cause its temperature
julia-pushkina [17]
Change in thermal energy not always cause it's temperature change. It is the situation when water reaches either at 0 C or 100 C then thermal energy doesn't cause change in temperature instead it changes the state of matter.

In short, Your Answer would be "True"

Hope this helps!

TEA [102]

Answer:

His third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction. In other words, if object A exerts a force on object B, then object B also exerts an equal and opposite force on object A. ... In reaction, a thrusting force is produced in the opposite direction.

Ice has a specific heat of 2.093Jg ∘C, liquid water's specific heat is 4.184Jg ∘C, and steam has a specific heat of 1.864Jg ∘C.
Ivan

Answer:

The liquid phase will have the lowest temperature change upon heating.

Explanation:

Assuming no phase change due to heating, we know that the temperature change, is proportional to the mass heated, being the proportionality constant  a quantity that depends on the material, and represents the resistance of the material to change the temperature, called specific heat.

So, if we assume that the mass is the same for the three phases, and that the amount of heat supplied is also the same,the phase with the highest specific heat will have the lowest temperature change.

So, the liquid phase will be the one that exhibits this behavior, as the specific heat of liquid water (4.184 J/gºC) is the highest among the three phases.
