Answer:
Thermopile is an electronic device that converts thermal energy into electrical energy.
A Peltier cooler, heater, or thermoelectric heat pump is a solid-state active heat pump which transfers heat from one side of the device to the other, with consumption of electrical energy, depending on the direction of the current.
Answer:
Explanation:
During a car collision momentum of vehicle ceases within a fraction of seconds so Force due to the impulse is huge.
Impulse is defined as the product of average force and time. If we can increase the period of collision for the same impulse then the average force imparted will be less.
If we can increase the time period then damage due to collision will be less.
The change in the player's internal energy is -491.6 kJ. The number of nutritional calories is -117.44 kCal
For this process to take place, some of the basketball player's perspiration must escape from the skin. This is because sweating relies on a physical phenomenon known as the heat of vaporization.
The heat of vaporization refers to the amount of heat required to convert 1g of a liquid into a vapor without causing the liquid's temperature to increase.
From the given information,
- the work done on the basketball is dW = 2.43 × 10⁵ J
The amount of heat loss is represented by dQ.
where;
∴
Using the first law of thermodynamics:b
dU = dQ - dW
dU = -mL - dW
dU = -(0.110 kg × 2.26 × 10⁶ J/kg - 2.43 × 10⁵ J)
dU = -491.6 × 10³ J
dU = -491.6 kJ
The number of nutritional calories the player has converted to work and heat can be determined by using the relation:

dU = -117.44 kcal

To find the apparent frequency heard by the driver in the car, we can use the formula for the Doppler effect:

where
f is the original sound of the horn
v is the speed of sound
is the velocity of the observer (the driver and the car), which is positive if the observer is moving towards the source and negative if it is moving away
is the velocity of the sound source (the train), which is positive if the source is moving away from the observer and negative otherwise
In this problem we have, according to the sign convention used:

Substituting, we find:

2. 
The speed of light can be calculated as

where
d is the distance travelled
t is the time taken
In this problem:
is the total distance travelled by the laser beam (twice the distance between the Earth and the Moon)
t = 2.60 s is the time taken
Substituting in the formula,

-- loud sounds
-- bright lights
-- strong radio signals
-- Slinkies that can pinch you painfully
-- a tsunami in the ocean
-- earthquakes above Richter 5 or 6
