Evaporation of sweat cools the skin because
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer: c. the molecules with the highest energy evaporate first, lowering the temperature of the sample

Explanation:

The process by which liquid starts to change into vapor phase at any temperature is known as evaporation.

During evaporation , the molecules which possess higher energies escape from the upper layer into vapor phase. the molecules which escape draw energy from surroundings and thus decrease the energy of the surroundings and hence lead to decrease in temperature.

As temperature of the system is directly proportional to the energy of the system , thus decrease in energy leads to decrease in temperature.

K.E=\frac{3RT}{2}

K.E. = Kinetic energy

T = temperature

R= gas constant

A charge of q= +15 uC moves in a Northeast direction with a speed 5 m/s, 25 degrees East of a magnetic field, pointing North, wi
grin007 [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnitude of charge, q=15\ \mu C=15\times 10^{-6}\ C

It moves in northeast direction with a speed of 5 m/s, 25 degrees East of a magnetic field.

Magnetic field, B=0.08\ j

Velocity, v=(5\ cos25)i+(5\ sin25)j

v=[(4.53)i+(2.11)j]\ m/s

We need to find the magnitude of force on the charge. Magnetic force is given by :

F=q(v\times B)

F=15\times 10^{-6}[(4.53i+2.11j)\times 0.08\ j]

<em>Since</em>, i\times j=k\ and\ j\times j=0

F=15\times 10^{-6}[(4.53i)\times (0.08)\ j]

F=0.00000543\ kN

F=5.43\times 10^{-6}\ kN

So, the force acting on the charge is 5.43\times 10^{-6}\ kN and is moving in positive z axis. Hence, this is the required solution.

radio waves travel at the speed of light, 3 x 10^8 m/s. the wavelength of a radio wave record is 200,000,000 hz is?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

1.5m

Explanation:

Speed of waves is given as the product of the wavelength and frequency. Sometimes when frequency is not given but the period is given, we get the frequency as the reciprocal of the period. The speed of waves is given in m/s, wavelength in m while frequency in Hz.

Speed, s= fw and making w the subject of formula,

w=\frac {s}{f}

Substituting 300, 000, 000 m/s for s and 200, 000, 000 for f then we obtain that

w=\frac {300000000}{200000000}=1.5 m
