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.

To balance a chemical equation we use______. -coefficients -subscripts

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Coefficients

Explanation:

Coefficients are used to balance chemical equations.
According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants in a chemical equation should be equivalent to the mass of the products.
The conservation of mass is achieved in chemical equations is achieved through balancing chemical equations.
Balancing chemical equations is a try and error of putting appropriate coefficients to the reactants or products to ensure that the number of atoms of each element are equal on the side of the reactants and that of products.

Propose a hypothesis for how the position of the ball will affect the amount of its gravitational pull energy

Ray Of Light [21]

throwing a ball up initially has a lot of kinetic energy because it is moving upwards ( kinetic energy is energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.) this all then get converted to gravitational potential energy, and for a moment it is stationary before it begins to fall again. by the time it has returned again, all the gravitational potential energy has turned back into kinetic.

The four-wheel-drive all-terrain vehicle has a mass of 385 kg with center of mass G2. The driver has a mass of 75 kg with center

The coefficient of friction is missing and it has a value of μ = 0.4

Answer:

a = 3.924 m/s²

Explanation:

I've attached the kinematic free body diagram.

Taking the sum of all upward and downward forces,

EFy = 0;

N1 + N2 - m_p•g - m_v•g = 0

N1 + N2 = m_p•g + m_v•g

Where;

N1 and N2 are the normal reactions at the wheels

m_p is the mass of the driver

m_v is the mass of the vehicle

g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Plugging in the relevant values in the question,we obtain;

N1 + N2 = (385 + 75) x 9.81

N1 + N2 = 4512.6N - - - (eq1)

Now, taking sum of all horizontal forces;

EFx = (m_p + m_v) x a

So,

μ(N1 + N2) = (mp + mv) x a

Thus,

0.4(N1 + N2) = (385 + 75)a

0.4(N1 + N2) = 460a

N1 + N2 = 1150a

From eq(1),N1 + N2 = 4512.6N

Thus,

1150a = 4512.6N

a = 4512.6/1150

a = 3.924 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration, a = 3.924 m/s²

How is temperature related to the physical change of a substance?

WINSTONCH [101]

When you heat something of cool it down you don't change the substance you might change the why is looks, but it is still the same substance. For example you cool water to 0 degrees Celsius it turns into ice but it still is two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen H2O. Physical changes will change state and/or form but it will still be what it originally was on the molecular level. Hope that helped.
