The second law of thermodynamics has a principle of heat energy travels from higher temperature to lower temperature. This happens when we put our feet into the water. The natural heat of our body will travel to the water, thus we feel cold as the heat on our body travels to the lower temperature of water.

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics describes the flow of heat. Heat flows from an object at higher temperature to the body at colder temperature. It does not flow in the opposite direction.

When you put your feet into the water. The heat from our feet will get transferred to the water. That's why feet gets cold but not get hot when you put them into the water.

A flat uniform circular disk (radius = 2.30 m, mass = 1.00 ✕ 102 kg) is initially stationary. The disk is free to rotate in the
Vadim26 [7]

The resulting angular speed = 0.6 rad / s.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Here there is no external torque acting on the system thus we can apply the law of conservation of angular  momentum  

Angular momentum of the man = Iω

Where I = Inertia of the man about the axis of rotation

or         I = M r 2

            I  = 50 * 1.25*1.25 = 78.125

w = Angular velocity of the man, that can be calculated as follows

Tangential velocity of man = v = 2m/s  

So time taken to describe this circle is t = (2*pi* r) / v

Now angle described in 1 revolution θ = 2*pi radians

This angle is subtended in time t = (2*pi* r) / v

Thus angular speed = w = θ/t = 2*pi* ( v/ 2π r) = v/r = 2.70 / 1.25 = 2.16 rad/s

So angular momentum of man = Iw = 78.125 * 2.16 = 168.75.

To conserve the angular momentum before and after,

Angular momentum of disk = angular momentum of the man  

           i.e.             Iw of disk = 168.75

                                disk of I = (disk of M*R^2) / 2

                                              = (1.00 * 102 * 2.30 * 2.30) / 2

                                              = 269.79

                 Thus 269.79 of disk of w = 168.75

      Resulting angular speed of disk = 168.75 / 269.79 = 0.6 ras / s

How much power is needed to lift the 200-N object to a height of 4 m in 4 s?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: 2000 watts

Explanation:

Given that,

power = ?

Weight of object = 200-N

height = 4 m

Time = 4 s

Power is the rate of work done per unit time i.e Power is simply obtained by dividing work by time. Its unit is watts.

i.e Power = work / time

(since work = force x distance, and weight is the force acting on the object due to gravity)

Then, Power = (weight x distance) / time

Power = (200N x 4m) / 4s

Power = 8000Nm / 4s

Power = 2000 watts

Thus, 2000 watts of power is needed to lift the object.

1. A toy car is marked to go at 0.5m/s, which of the following sets of
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

b. 0.6m/s, 0.7m/s, 0.61m/s, 0.62m/s

Explanation:

Precision of a measurement is the closeness of the experimental values to one another. Hence, experimental measurements are said to be precise if they are close to each other irrespective of how close they are to the accepted value. Precision can be determined by finding the range of each experimental value. The measurement with the LOWEST RANGE represents the MOST PRECISE.

Note: Range is the highest value - lowest value

Set A: 1.5 - 0.8 = 0.7

Set B: 0.7 - 0.6 = 0.1

Set C: 2.4 - 2.0 = 0.4

Set D: 3.1 - 2.9 = 0.2

Set B has the lowest range (0.1), hence, represent the most precise value.
