Answer:

The ceramic tile will stand the force of 5 N.

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the area (A) of the ceramic tile

We will use the formula for the area of a square.

A = 50 cm × 50 cm = 2500 cm²

Step 2: Convert "A" to in²

We will use the conversion factor 1 in² = 6.45 cm².

2500 cm² × 1 in²/6.45 cm² = 3.9 × 10² in²

Step 3: Calculate the pressure (P) exerted by a force (F) of 5 N

We will use the following expression.

P = F/A

P = 5 N / 3.9 × 10² in² = 0.013 N/in²

Since the pressure exerted would be less than the maximum pressure resisted (40 N/in²), the ceramic tile will stand the force of 5 N.

What quantity do units represent in a value?

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer : Magnitude

Explanation :

In a value, the magnitude is represented by its units. It can be adopted by convention or by law.

Magnitude of any unit is used to measure the same kind of quantity.

For example: The unit of length which is a physical quantity is meter (m).

So, magnitude is correct answer.

Why do you not come to thermal equilibrium on a cold day

Tju [1.3M]

Two physical systems are in thermal equilibrium if no heat flows between them when they are connected by a path permeable to heat. Thermal equilibrium obeys the zeroth law of thermodynamics. A system is said to be in thermal equilibrium with itself if the temperature within the system is spatially and temporally uniform.

Systems in thermodynamic equilibrium are always in thermal equilibrium, but the converse is not always true. If the connection between the systems allows transfer of energy as heat but does not allow transfer of matter or transfer of energy as work, the two systems may reach thermal equilibrium without reaching thermodynamic equilibrium.
