Professor Whitney has a sample of lead and a sample of iron. The samples have equal mass. When Whitney heats the samples, the le

ad reaches a higher temperature than the iron, even though both samples absorbed the same amount of thermal energy. What can Whitney conclude from this experiment?

The temperature increase of a substance is T=Q/m*c, where m is the mass, Q is the energy absorbed and c is the specific heat.  So you can conclude that if the lead gets to a higher temperature, it must have a lower specific heat

Dimas [21]

Answer: A.

Explanation: Roughly 180 - 200 million years ago, just before the first dinosaurs evolved. Mammals themselves evolved from a group or reptiles which exhibited mammal-like traits. One of them was specialized teeth. Reptiles tend to have teeth all the same shape. The mammal-like reptiles evolved tiny teeth in front of the jaw and two pairs of over sized fangs along the the sides. Like modern mammals, the head was large in proportion to the rest of the body. The jaws were also evolving another mammal trait, the ability to move sideways. Despite the lack of specialized teeth, acute hearing and the ability to chew, the dinosaurs evolved an adaptation which made them far more successful than mammals--modified leg bones. These limbs could be articulated directly under their bodies. This enabled the legs to support more weight, since the limbs were now under the body instead of at the sides. Then dinosaurs did something which secured their dominance for the next 120 million years - they began to stand on two legs. Although the back was still parallel to the ground, running on two legs greatly increased the dinosaur's speed. Mammals could simply not compete with swift, giant predators and were forced to remain small, and most became nocturnal to evade dinosaurs which were probably active during the day. Despite that they managed to survive which allowed the further evolution of mammals into us, humans.

The Gulf Stream is an ocean current that runs from the southern tip of Florida up the eastern coast of the U.S. And ends in the
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The Northern flowing stream will affect the coast of Europe by  making  climate of Western Europe and Northern Europe to be warmer than other areas that are located around the same latitude and this is simply because of the North Atlantic Current

Explanation:

The Northern flowing stream will affect the coast of Europe because the North Atlantic current causes the Gulf stream to be split into two ( 2 ) and the Northern stream which is a warm stream crossing over to Northern Europe. <em>The Gulf stream makes climate of Western Europe and Northern Europe to be warmer than other areas that are located around the same latitude and this is simply because of the North Atlantic Current</em>

A milk truck carries milk with density 64.6 lb/ft3 in a horizontal cylindrical tank with diameter 12 ft. (a) Find the force exer
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

F = 351×10³lb

Explanation:

Given the density

ρg = 64.6lb/ft³

Diameter d = 12ft

The tank is horizontally cylindrical. The vertical distance from the top to the bottom of the tank is h = 12ft

The pressure in the tank is

P = ρgh = 64.6 × 12 = 775.2lb/ft²

The force exerted on one end of the tank is therefore F = PA = 775.2 × πd² = 775.2π×12²

F = 351×10³lb.

A ball is kicked from the top of a building with a velocity of 50 m/s and lands 165 m away from the base of the buildi
solniwko [45]

Answer:

32.3 m/s

Explanation:

The ball follows a projectile motion, where:

- The horizontal motion is a uniform motion at costant speed

- The vertical motion is a free fall motion (constant acceleration)

We start by analyzing the horizontal motion. The ball travels horizontally at constant speed of

v_x = 50 m/s

and it covers a distance of

d = 165 m

So, the total time of flight of the ball is

t=\frac{d}{v_x}=\frac{165}{50}=3.3 s

In order to find the vertical velocity of the ball, we have now to analyze its vertical motion.

The vertical motion is a free-fall motion, so the ball is falling at constant acceleration; therefore we can use the following suvat equation:

v_y = u_y +at

where

v_y is the vertical velocity at time t

u_y=0 is the initial vertical velocity

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration  of gravity (taking downward as positive direction)

Substituting t = 3.3 s (the time of flight), we find the final vertical velocity of the ball:

v=0 + (9.8)(3.3)=32.3 m/s

The rotating loop in an AC generator is a square 10.0 cm on each side. It is rotated at 60.0 Hz in a uniform field of 0.800 TO.
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given a square side loop of length 10cm

L=10cm=0.1m

Then, Area=L²

Area=0.1²

Area=0.01m²

Given that, frequency=60Hz

And magnetic field B=0.8T

a. Flux Φ

Flux is given as

Φ=BA Sin(wt)

w=2πf

Φ=BA Sin(2πft)

Φ=0.8×0.01 Sin(2×π×60t)

Φ=0.008Sin(120πt) Weber

b. EMF in loop

Emf is given as

EMF= -N dΦ/dt

Where N is number of turns

Φ=0.008Sin(120πt)

dΦ/dt= 0.008×120Cos(120πt)

dΦ/dt= 0.96Cos(120πt)

Emf=-NdΦ/dt

Emf=-0.96NCos(120πt). Volts

c. Current induced for a resistance of 1ohms

From ohms law, V=iR

Therefore, Emf=iR

i=EMF/R

i=-0.96NCos(120πt) / 1

i=-0.96NCos(120πt) Ampere

d. Power delivered to the loop

Power is given as

P=IV

P=-0.96NCos(120πt)•-0.96NCos(120πt)

P=0.92N²Cos²(120πt) Watt

e. Torque

Torque is given as

τ=iL²B

τ=-0.96NCos(120πt)•0.1²×0.8

τ=-0.00768NCos(120πt) Nm
