Answer:

Aluminium

Explanation:

Aluminium will raise the temperature of the water the most because it has the highest specific heat.

I had gotten this question on USA Test Prep and this was their explanation:

"The correct answer is aluminum. Specific heat is the measure of the heat energy required to increase or decrease the temperature of a substance by a certain temperature interval. Aluminum has the highest specific heat; that means at the same temperature as the other metals, it contains the most amount of energy. When placed in the water, it will transfer the most energy and raise the temperature the highest."

The metal with the highest value of specific heat will raise the temperature the most.

An electron initially has a speed 16 km/s along the x-direction and enters an electric field of strength 27 mV/m that points in
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

a)t=1.4\times 10^{-5}\ s

b)S= 46.4 cm

Explanation:

Given that

Velocity = 16 Km/s

V= 16,000 m/s

E= 27 mV/m

E=0.027 V/m

d= 22.5 cm

d= 0.225 m

a)

lets time taken by electron is t

d = V x t

0.225 = 16,000 t

t=1.4\times 10^{-5}\ s

b)

We know that

F = m a = E q                    ------------1

Mass of electron ,m

m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

Charge on electron

q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

So now by putting the values in equation 1

a=\dfrac{E q}{m}

a=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.027}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}\ m/s^2

a=4.74\times 10^{9}\ m/s^2

S= ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Here initial velocity u= 0 m/s

S= \dfrac{1}{2}\times 4.74\times 10^{9}\times (1.4\times 10^{-5})^2\ m

S=0.464 m

S= 46.4 cm

S is the deflection of electron.

Imagine that two balls, a basketball and a much larger exercise ball, are dropped from a parking garage. If both the mass and ra
pashok25 [27]

Here if we assume that there is no air friction on both balls then we can say

F = mg

now the acceleration is given as

F = ma = mg

a = g

so here both the balls will have same acceleration irrespective of size and mass

so we can say that to find out the time of fall of ball we can use

y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

t = \sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}

now from above equation we can say that time taken to hit the ground will be same for both balls and it is irrespective of its mass and size
