Define heat capacity of a substance:
- The heat capacity of a substance can be defined as the amount of heat required to change its temperature by one degree.
Write the S.I unit of heat capacity:









-,-
Answer: A and B
Explanation:
Electromagnetic radiations are examples of electromagnetic waves with increasing frequency and decreasing wavelength in the following order radiowaves - infrared waves - visible lights - ultraviolet rays- x-rays - gamma rays.
They did not require material medium for their propagation.
The statement above shows that EM radiations possesses different wavelengths and frequency.
Answer:
The potential energy at point A is 17.1675 J
Explanation:
The capillary potential is the work expended to bring up a unit mass of liquid to a point in a capillary region from a level liquid surface. It is the capillary potential that facilitates the movement of moisture within soil capillaries
In meteorology it is used to describe the level of saturated soil above the water table
Potential energy is the energy inherent in a body by virtue of its position, therefore the potentials of both point A and B are
Point A, elevation = 75 cm capillary potential = -100 cm
Point B, elevation = 25 cm capillary potential = -200 cm
The total potential energy at point A is
Elevation above reference - capillary potential =75-(-100) = 175 cm
which gives per unit mass
PE = m × g × h = 1 kg × 9.81 m/s ² × 1.75 m = 17.1675 kg·m²/s² = 17.1675 J
Answer:
A hypothesis is a basically a theory proposed to a subject or refrence to an act with limited evidences.
Answer:
10 ms⁻¹
Explanation:
The amount of momentum that an object has is dependent upon two factors
- mass of the moving object
- speed of motion
In terms of an equation,
Momentum (P) = Mass(m)×velocity(v)
P = m×v
600 = 60 × v ⇒ v = 10 ms⁻¹
