Answer:

A) a low specific heat.

Explanation:

As we know that heat given to the sand will increase it temperature

so we can say

$Q = ms\Delta T$

here we will have

$\Delta T = \frac{Q}{ms}$

so now we will have

more change in temperature due to heat given to the sand will show that it must have low specific heat capacity as it inversely depends on the specific heat capacity of the sand

so correct answer will be

A) a low specific heat.

A bus hits a bug and the bug splatters on the windshield, which force is greater?

grandymaker [24]

The forces acting on a body and the type of motion that results are given by Newton's three Laws of motion

The force of the bus is the same as reactive force of the bug

Reason:

According to Newton's third Law of motion, given that the bug collides

with the bus, the force with which the bus hits the bug is equal to the

reactive force of the bug on the on the bus

According to Newton's second Law of motion, force is equal to the rate of

change of the momentum produced

The impulse of the force of the bus on the bug is given as follows;

F·Δt = m·(v₂ - v₁)

Given that the force of the bus is large, the change in momentum, m·(v₂ - v₁),

is also large such that the parts of the bug are split by the rapid change in

velocity, and the bug splatters on the windshield, and is then carried along

on the trip,

The equally large reactive force of the bug, is such that the bug splatters

due its magnitude

Therefore, the correct response is that the forces are the same

A nickel (5 cent coin) has a mass of 5.0 g. How many nickels are there in a stack of nickels with a mass of 10.0 kg?

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

2000 nickels

Explanation:

One way to solve proportionality problems, direct and inverse: the simple 3 rule.

If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct (when one magnitude increases so does the other), the simple direct rule of three must be applied.

On the contrary, if the relationship between the magnitudes is inverse (when one magnitude increases the other decreases) the rule of three simple inverse applies.

The simple 3 rule is an operation that helps us quickly solve proportionality problems, both direct and inverse.

To make a simple rule of three we need 3 data: two magnitudes proportional to each other, and a third magnitude. From these, we will find out the fourth term of proportionality.

In the simple three rule, therefore, the proportionality relationship between two known values A and B is established, and knowing a third value C, a fourth value D is calculated.

A -> B

C -> D

Calculation

1 nickel --> 5 g

X? nickel --> 10000g

X = (10000 g * 1 nickel) / 5 g

X = 2000 nickels

20. In a parallel RL circuit, 10 mA flows through the resistor and 4 mA flows through the inductor. What phase angle separates v

stellarik [79]

Answer:

Option D: 21.8 degrees

Explanation:

In a parallel RL circuit, the current in the resistor R and that in the inductor L are separated among themselves 90 degrees as illustrated in the attached image. In the image the current in the resistor is represented in orange, that of the inductor in blue, and the total current (vector addition of the previous two) is represented in red, forming a certain angle (theta) with respect to the current in the resistor. The output voltage is the same as the input voltage as measured over the resistor R.

Therefore, the phase angle that separated output voltage and total current can be obtained using the fact that tan(phase angle) = $\frac{I_l}{I_R} = \frac{x}{y} \frac{4}{10}$ , therefore the angle is the arctangent of 4/10:

$arctang(\frac{4}{10} )= 21.801$ degrees.
