Which of the following temparature is approximately equal to room temperature

Physics

Artist 52 [7]3 years ago

Hello there! :)

\huge\boxed{\text{C. 293K}}

Room temperature is approximately 20°C.

We can automatically eliminate choices B and D since they are not equal to 20°C.

Since some choices use the Kelvin scale, we can convert from Celsius to Kelvin using a simple formula:

K = C° + 273

Find room temperature in degrees <u>Kelvin</u>:

K = 20° + 273

K = 293°

Thus, the correct choice would be <u>C. 293K.</u>

A ball is thrown upward. At a height of 10 meters above the ground, the ball has a potential energy of 50 joules (with the poten
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

 h = 20 m

Explanation:

given.

height, h = 10 m

Potential energy at 10 m = 50 J

Kinetic energy at 10 m = 50 J

maximum height the ball will reach, H = ?

Total energy of the system

T E = 50 J + 50 J

T E = 100 J

now,

A h = 10 m

P E = m g h

50 = m g x 10

mg = 5 ..............(1)

at the top most Point the only Potential energy will be acting on the body.

now, TE = Potential energy

 100 = m g h

5 h = 100

 h = 20 m

hence, the maximum height reached by the ball is equal to 20 m.

One observer stands on a train moving at a constant speed, and one observer stands at rest on the ground. The person on the trai
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Option D.

Value cannot be calculated without knowing the speed of the train

Explanation:

The speed of the beam can only be calculated accurately when the speed of the train is put into consideration. Based of the theory of relativity, the observer is on the ground, and the train is moving with the beam of light inside it. This causes a variation in the reference frames when making judgements of the speed of the beam. The speed of the beam will be more accurate if the observer is moving at the same sped of the train, or the train is stationary.

To get the correct answer, we have to subtract the speed of the train from the speed calculated.

Hydraulic engineers often use, as a unit of volume of water, the "acre-foot", defined as the volume of water that will cover 1 a
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Volume = 1,015 acre-feet (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Rain = 1.7 in

Time = 30 min

Area = 29 km²

Find:

Volume in acre-feet

Computation:

1 km = 1,000 m

1 m = 3.28 feet

1 km² = 247.105 acre

d = 1.7 in = 1.7 / 12 = 0.14167 ft

Area = 29 × 247.105 = 7,166.045 acre

Volume = 7,166.045 acre × 0.14167 ft

Volume = 1,015 acre-feet (Approx)

A bag containing 0ºC ice is much more effective in absorbing energy than one containing the same amount of 0ºC water.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

No temperature change occurs from heat transfer if ice melts and becomes liquid water (i.e., during a phase change). For example, consider water dripping from icicles melting on a roof warmed by the Sun. Conversely, water freezes in an ice tray cooled by lower-temperature surroundings.

Explanation:

Energy is required to melt a solid because the cohesive bonds between the molecules in the solid must be broken apart such that, in the liquid, the molecules can move around at comparable kinetic energies; thus, there is no rise in temperature. Similarly, energy is needed to vaporize a liquid, because molecules in a liquid interact with each other via attractive forces. There is no temperature change until a phase change is complete. The temperature of a cup of soda initially at 0ºC stays at 0ºC until all the ice has melted. Conversely, energy is released during freezing and condensation, usually in the form of thermal energy. Work is done by cohesive forces when molecules are brought together. The corresponding energy must be given off (dissipated) to allow them to stay together Figure 2.

The energy involved in a phase change depends on two major factors: the number and strength of bonds or force pairs. The number of bonds is proportional to the number of molecules and thus to the mass of the sample. The strength of forces depends on the type of molecules. The heat Q required to change the phase of a sample of mass m is given by

Q = mLf (melting/freezing,

Q = mLv (vaporization/condensation),

where the latent heat of fusion, Lf, and latent heat of vaporization, Lv, are material constants that are determined experimentally.

A viscous fluid is flowing through two horizontal pipes. They have the same length, although the radius of one pipe is three tim
Rudik [331]

The conservation of the mass of fluid through two sections (be they A1 and A2) of a conduit (pipe) or current tube establishes that the mass that enters is equal to the mass that exits. Mathematically the input flow must be the same as the output flow,

Q_1 = Q_2

The definition of flow is given by

Q =VA

Where

V = Velocity

A = Area

The units of the flow of flow are cubic meters per second, that is to say that if there is a continuity, the volume of input must be the same as that of output, what changes if the sections are modified are the proportions of speed.

In this way

Q_A = Q_B

Q_B = 2.94*10^2 m^3/s
