Rubbing your hands together warms them by converting work into thermal energy. If a woman rubs her hands back and forth for a to

tal of 11 rubs a distance of 7.50 cm each and with a frictional force averaging 71.3 N, what is the temperature increase? The mass of tissue warmed is only 0.100 kg, mostly in the palms and fingers. The specific heat of the tissue is 3500 J/(kg · °C).

Answer:

0.168°C

Explanation:

The frictional force between the palms enables rubbing and initiates the heat deposed.

The energy generated per rub is;

The force × distance

Hence we have; 71.3 N×0.0750m

Hence for 11 rubs we have; 11× 71.3 N×0.0750m= 58.82J

Now this heat acquired by the tissue is the same as mass of tissue × specific heat capacity of tissue × temperature rise;

Expressed mathematically as;

58.82=0.100 kg×3500 J/(kg · °C)×∆T

∆T= 58.82/ 0.100 ×3500 =0.168°C

NemiM [27]

The wires is what is needed to put together the whole thing, kinda like glue when you're gluing a piece of paper on it.

Anyways, the battery is the main source and main energy per say.

That energy that comes from the battery, thanks to the wires, it can transfer that said energy to both the switch and light bulb.

And as you flick the switch, it depends of how you put it together, there's two options, turning the light bulb on or turning it off.

Though it doesn't mean that since the light bulb is connected to the battery makes the bulb turn on no matter what since the switch can cancel the main source's energy.

It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier.

Scientific notation is a system used in order to It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier. It is useful as it allows very large number that would take a lot of space to write otherwise, and it allows them to be calculated easier. 10^{23} for example is a incredible large number, but written in this form is immediately understandable and useful for calculation.

zalisa [80]

Option B i.e discretion is the right and correct answer.

[C]utting programs that were not effective or essential and even some that were, but are now unaffordable; and precisely targeting our investments. Every department will feel the impact of these reductions as they cut programs or tighten their belts to free up more resources for areas critical to economic growth. —President Barack Obama, 2012 Budget Message of the President.

The President above clearly refers to the Discretion Spending where portion of the budget is decided by Congress through the annual appropriations.
