Why do we see sedimentary rocks more often than igneous and metamorphic rocks?

What will be the final temperature if a 4.00 g silver ring at 41.0◦C if it gives off 18.0 J of heat to the surroundings? The spe

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Final temperature, $T_f=21.85^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of silver ring, m = 4 g

Initial temperature, $T_i=41^{\circ}C$

Heat released, Q = -18 J (as heat is released)

Specific heat capacity of silver, $c=0.235\ J/g\ C$

To find,

Final temperature

Solution,

The expression for the specific heat is given by :

$Q=mc\Delta T$

$Q=mc(T_f-T_i)$

$T_f=\dfrac{-Q}{mc}+T_i$

$T_f=\dfrac{-18}{4\times 0.235}+41$

$T_f=21.85^{\circ}$

So, the final temperature of silver is 21.85 degrees Celsius.

Which of the following methods has led to the earliest discoveries of massive planets orbiting near their parent stars a. detect

Mrac [35]

Answer:

c. detecting the gravitational effect of an orbiting planet (The Wobble"") by looking for the Doppler shifts in the star's spectrum

Explanation:

In a solar system the mass of the star and planets affect each other's orbital movements. The center of gravity of a star and a planet is inside the star. This causes the star to be closer and farther from the Earth at different times. Due to this wobble the star appears to be red shifted when it is farther and blue shifted when it is closer.

When the mass of the planet is high, like a hot Jupiter it causes more wobble i.e., change in radial velocity. This makes it easier to detect the planet. The earliest hot Jupiter found by this method is the planet 51 Pegasi b.

John walks 1.00 km north, then turns right and walks 1.00 km east. His speed is 1.50 m/s during the entire stroll.a) What is the

avanturin [10]

Answer:

(a) 1.414 km

(b) 1.06 m/s

Explanation:

(a) For John:

Distance = 1 km north and then 1 km east

Speed = 1.5 m/s

total distance traveled = 1 + 1 = 2 km = 2000 m

Time taken to travel = Distance / speed

t = 2000 / 1.5 = 1333.3 seconds

Displacement = $\sqrt{1^{2}+1^{2}}=1.414 km$

(b) For jane :

Time is same as john = 1333.33 second

Distance = 1.414 km = 1414 m

Speed = distance / time = 1414 / 1333.33 = 1.06 m/s

The driver of a car slams on the brakes, causing the car to slow down at a rate of

sdas [7]

Answer:

A. The time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs

B. The initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2

Distance (s) = 256ft

Final velocity (V) = 0

Time (t) =?

Initial velocity (U) =?

A. Determination of the time taken for the car to stop.

Let us obtain an express for time (t)

Acceleration (a) = Velocity (V)/time(t)

a = V/t

Velocity (V) = distance (s) /time (t)

V = s/t

a = s/t^2

Cross multiply

a x t^2 = s

Divide both side by a

t^2 = s/a

Take the square root of both side

t = √(s/a)

Now we can obtain the time as follow

Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2

Distance (s) = 256ft

Time (t) =..?

t = √(s/a)

t = √(256/26)

t = 3.14 secs

Therefore, the time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs

B. Determination of the initial speed of the car.

V = U + at

Final velocity (V) = 0

Deceleration (a) = –26ft/s2

Time (t) = 3.14 sec

Initial velocity (U) =.?

0 = U – 26x3.14

0 = U – 81.64

Collect like terms

U = 81.64 ft/s

Therefore, the initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s

A spherical, conducting shell of inner radius r1= 10 cm and outer radius r2 = 15 cm carries a total charge Q = 15 μC . What is t

lutik1710 [3]

a) E = 0

b) $3.38\cdot 10^6 N/C$

Explanation:

a)

We can solve this problem using Gauss theorem: the electric flux through a Gaussian surface of radius r must be equal to the charge contained by the sphere divided by the vacuum permittivity:

$\int EdS=\frac{q}{\epsilon_0}$

where

E is the electric field

q is the charge contained by the Gaussian surface

$\epsilon_0$ is the vacuum permittivity

Here we want to find the electric field at a distance of

r = 12 cm = 0.12 m

Here we are between the inner radius and the outer radius of the shell:

$r_1 = 10 cm\\r_2 = 15 cm$

However, we notice that the shell is conducting: this means that the charge inside the conductor will distribute over its outer surface.

This means that a Gaussian surface of radius r = 12 cm, which is smaller than the outer radius of the shell, will contain zero net charge:

q = 0

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field is also zero:

E = 0

b)

Here we want to find the magnitude of the electric field at a distance of

r = 20 cm = 0.20 m

from the centre of the shell.

Outside the outer surface of the shell, the electric field is equivalent to that produced by a single-point charge of same magnitude Q concentrated at the centre of the shell.

Therefore, it is given by:

$E=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_0 r^2}$

where in this problem:

$Q=15 \mu C = 15\cdot 10^{-6} C$ is the charge on the shell

$r=20 cm = 0.20 m$ is the distance from the centre of the shell

Substituting, we find:

$E=\frac{15\cdot 10^{-6}}{4\pi (8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(0.20)^2}=3.38\cdot 10^6 N/C$
