Answer:

(d) Water has a high specific heat.

Explanation:

At night, when the temperature of earth goes down due to loss of heat , the temperature of water is lost slowly and temperature of land is lost fast because of high specific heat of water . Water loses as well as gains temperature comparatively slowly due to its high specific heat .

During daytime when earth gains heat , the temperature of land rises more rapidly than water so water appears cool even during daytime when land becomes  hotter . It is also due to high heat holding capacity of water or due to high specific heat of water .

Bond [772]
Assuming that reaching a height 0 doesn’t stop the ball, and that it accelerates at 9.8 m/s^2, the ball would be traveling at 0.5 + 0.7*9.8 = 7.36 m/s downwards.

The classic Millikan oil-drop experiment was the first to obtain an accurate measurement of the charge on an electron. In it, oi
Sati [7]

Answer:

1.56\times 10^5 N/C        

Explanation:

The electric field that will balance the weight of the oil drop can be calculated using the following:

electric force, F = e E ( where, e is the charge of an electron and E is the electric field)

weight, W = 2.5 ×10⁻¹⁴ N

e E = W

E =\frac{W}{e}

Substitute the values:

E =\frac{ 2.5 \times 10^{-14} N}{1.6\times10^{-19}C}= 1.56\times 10^5 N/C
