when a person uses an iron to remove the wrinkles from a shirt, why does heat travel from the iron to the shirt?

1 answer:

3 0

I think the answer to your question is that:
There is chemical energy being produced (by the water) and that causes the base of iron to absorb the heat. Then when the heated base of the iron is placed onto the shirt, the heat flattens the wrinkles on it.

w strong are you? Could you turn a moving car with just your own strength? No way! If a normal driver inputs about 50 N of force

malfutka [58]

The mechanical advantage of a simple machine is the measure of its amplified force gain.

The mechanical advantage is defined as the force amplified by a machine to the force required to generate such output.

$Mathematically\ mechanical\ advantage\ MA=\frac{F_{o}} {F_{i}}$

$F_{o} \ and\ F_{i}$ are the amplified force and applied force. We may also consider them as output and input force.

In the given question, the force given to the steering wheel is 50 N.

The output force produced by the steering wheel is 3750 N.

Hence the mechanical advantage will be-

$MA=\frac{F_{o}} {F_{i}}$

$=\frac{3750\ N}{50\ N}$

$=75$ [ans]

A man has a mass of 110 kg. What is his weight? A. 110N B. 1325 N C. 559 N D. 1078 N

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Given:

Mass = m = 110 kg

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 m/s

Required:

Weight = W = ?

Formula

W = mg

Solution:

W = (110)(9.8)

W = 1078 N

The operating temperature of a tungsten filament in an incandescent light bulb is 2450 K, and its emissivity is 0.350. Find the

natulia [17]

Answer:

The value is $A = 2.80 *10^{-4} \ m^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The operating temperature is $T = 2450 \ K$

The emissivity is $e = 0.350$

The power rating is $P = 200 \ W$

Generally the area is mathematically represented as

$A = \frac{P}{ e * \sigma * T^2}$

Where $\sigma$ is the Stefan Boltzmann constant with value

$\sigma = 5.67 *10^{-8} \ W/m^2\cdot K^4$

$A = \frac{200}{0.350 * 5.67*10^{-8} * 2450^{4}}$

$A = 2.80 *10^{-4} \ m^2$

Does Pepsi have more carbonation than coke

horsena [70]

Coke has more fizz than Pepsi, because Coke has more carbonation in it. Pepsi contains more sugar (2 more tablespoons) than Coke, so it tastes slightly sweeter to many people.

A ball is thrown vertically upward, which is the positive direction. a little later it returns to its point of release. the ball

Lady_Fox [76]

Final Velocity = Vf = 0 m/s --------------> (Vf = 0 because ball's speed at its max height is 0) Initial Velocity = Vi = ? Total time (upward & downward) = 8.0 seconds * Time upward = 4 seconds & ................( As time for ball upward & downward is equal ) * Time downward = 4 seconds.. Gravitational Acceleration = g = -9.8 m/sÂ˛ Use Equation; Vf = Vi - gt 0 = Vi - 9.8 * 4 0 = Vi - 39.2 39.2 = Vi => Vi = Initial Velocity = 39.2 m/s
