Two glasses of water have the same thermal energy so do they have to have the same temperature

Before answering this question first we have to understand temperature and thermal energy.

Thermal energy of a substance is defined as the sum total of kinetic ,potential etc. energy  of the substance. When two bodies come in contact with each other,the part of the thermal energy is transferred from hotter body to the cooler one which is called heat.

Temperature is the physical quantity which gives the direction of heat flow and determines whether two thermodynamic systems are in thermal equilibrium or not. Temperature of a thermodynamic system is a measure of average kinetic energy of that system.

If two systems have same average kinetic energy,then two systems must have same temperature.The temperature of a substance increases or decreases due to the change in average kinetic energy.

As per the question the two glasses have same thermal energy.It is told that the two glasses must have same temperature which is wrong.It is because thermal energy does not mean the average kinetic energy of the glass. Kinetic energy is a part of thermal energy.

Hence two glasses may be at different temperature depending on their average kinetic energy.

Llana [10]
We don't know how many of ANY color are in the bag right now, so there's no way to calculate an answer.

What Tom has to do is make sure that the number of marbles that are NOT blue is NINE TIMES the number of blue ones in the bag.

A test charge of +4 µC is placed halfway between a charge of +6 µC and another of +2 µC separated by 20 cm. (a) What is the magn
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

(a) Magnitude: 14.4 N

(b) Away from the +6 µC charge

Explanation:

As the test charge has the same sign, the force that the other charges exert on it will be a repulsive force. The magnitude of each of the forces will be:

F_e = K\frac{qq_{test}}{r^2}

K is the Coulomb constant equal to 9*10^9 N*m^2/C^2, q and qtest is the charge of the particles, and r is the distance between the particles.

Let's say that a force that goes toward the +6 µC charge is positive, then:

F_e_1 = K\frac{q_1q_{test}}{r^2}=-9*10^9 \frac{Nm^2}{C^2} \frac{6*10^{-6}C*4*10^{-6}C}{(0.1m)^2} =-21.6 N

F_e_2 = K\frac{q_2q_{test}}{r^2}=9*10^9 \frac{Nm^2}{C^2} \frac{2*10^{-6}C*4*10^{-6}C}{(0.1m)^2} =7.2 N

The magnitude will be:

F_e = -21.6 + 7.2 = -14.4 N, away from the +6 µC charge

How do the magnitudes of the inertial (the density times acceleration term), pressure, and viscous terms in the Navier-Stokes eq
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The general equation of movement in fluids is obtained from the application, at fluid volumes, of the principle of conservation of the amount of linear movement. This principle establishes that the variation over time of the amount of linear movement of a fluid volume is equal to that resulting from all forces (of volume and surface) acting on it. Expressed in This equation is called the Navier-Stokes equation.

The equation is shown in the attached file

Explanation:

The derivative of velocity with respect to time determines the change in the velocity of a particle of the fluid as it moves in space. It also includes convective acceleration, expressed by a nonlinear term that comes from convective inertia forces). With this equation, Stokes studied the motion of an infinite incompressible viscous fluid at rest at infinity, and in which a solid sphere of radius r makes a rectilinear and uniform translational motion of velocity v. It assumes that there are no external forces and that the movement of the fluid relative to a reference system on the sphere is stationary. Stokes' approach consists in neglecting the nonlinear term (associated with inertial forces due to convective acceleration).
