When would the temperature and thermal energy of an object differ?

Physics

5 0

The difference between temperature and thermal energy is that temperature measures the average kinetic speed of molecule and thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of all particles in a given substance.

A rubber ball and a lump of clay have equal mass. They are thrown with equal speed against a wall. The ball bounces back with ne
gregori [183]

Answer:

The ball experiences the greater momentum change

Explanation:

The momentum change of each object is given by:

\Delta p = m \Delta v= m (v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

Both objects have same mass m and same initial velocity u. So we have:

- For the ball, the final velocity is

v=-u

Since it bounces back (so, opposite direction --> negative sign) with same speed (so, the magnitude of the final velocity is still u). So the change in momentum is

\Delta p=m(v-u)=m((-u)-u)=-2mu

- For the clay, the final velocity is

v=0

since it sticks to the wall. So, the change in momentum is

\Delta p = m(v-u)=m(0-u)=-mu

So we see that the greater momentum change (in magnitude) is experienced by the ball.

That which type of boundary do lithospheric plates collide
satela [25.4K]

Answer

The type of boundary formed when lithospheric plates collide is called Convergent boundary

Explanation

When plates of the lithosphere collide, they form a sub-duction zone where the denser plate will be subdued underneath the less dense one. The one subdued later melts and get destroyed. This boundary occurs when; ocean crust meets ocean crust, when oceanic and continental crust meet   and where continental crust meets continental crust.

What is the best description of the destructive interference of light?
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

B. Two waves have displaced in opposite directions

Explanation:

Interference occurs when two waves meet at a point in space. When this occurs, two extreme conditions can occur:

- if the two waves are in phase (=displacement in the same direction), the amplitude of the resultant wave is equal to the sum of the amplitudes of the two waves:

A = A1 + A2

and this condition is called constructive interference

- if the two waves are in anti-phase (=displacement in opposite directions), the amplitude of the resultant wave is equal to the difference of the amplitudes of the two waves:

A = |A1 - A2|

and this condition is called destructive interference. Note that if A1=A2, the amplitude of the resultant wave is zero.
