The latent heat of fusion refers to the solid to liquid or liquid to solid states.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

It is known that the inter conversion process from the states of solid to liquid is referred as fusion. So, for these conversions, the external energy in the heat form should be supplied to solid.

This external energy should be greater than the latent heat of solid in order to successfully break the bonds to form liquid. So the change in the enthalpy of the reaction while conversion from solids to liquids are termed as latent heats of fusion.

Even the inter-conversion from liquid to solid state will undergo change in enthalpy where the heat will be released and that is termed as latent heats of solidification. It is found that latent heat of solidification is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction with the latent heats of fusion.

A car drives around a curve with radius 539 m at a speed of 32.0 m/s. The road is banked at 5.00°. The mass of the car is 1.40 ×

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

$f_r = 150.47 N$

Explanation:

given,

r = 539 m

v = 32 m/s

road banked at = 5°

∑ F_x

$\dfrac{mv^2}{r}= N sin \theta + f_r cos \theta$

∑ F_y = 0

$0 = N cos \theta - f_r sin \theta - mg$

$N = \dfrac{f_rsin \theta + mg}{cos \theta}$

$\dfrac{mv^2}{r}= (\dfrac{f_rsin \theta + mg}{cos \theta})sin \theta + f_r cos \theta$

= $f_r sin \theta tan \theta + mg tan \theta + f_r cos \theta$

$f_r = \dfrac{\dfrac{mv^2}{r}- mg tan\theta}{sin\theta tan \theta + cos \theta}$

$f_r = \dfrac{\dfrac{1.4\times 10^3 \times 32^2}{539}- 1.4\times 10^{3}\times 9.8 \times 0.087}{0.087 \times 0.087 + 0.996}$

$f_r = 150.47 N$

At what time of year is the intensity of solar radiation striking each of earth's hemispheres weakest?

bagirrra123 [75]

<span>During winter for a given hemisphere, solar radiation reaches the lowest period of its annual cycle due to the tilt of the earth on its axis. As the earth rotates around the sun, this tilt occludes a portion of the energy released by the sun as it diffuses in the atmosphere.</span>
