What average energy of particles does temperature measures?​

Physics
1 answer:
sertanlavr [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Well, temperature is simply an average measure of the kinetic energy for particles of matter. Another way of putting it would be that temperature simply describes the average vibration of particles. Because the motion of all particles is random, they don’t all move at the same speed and in the same direction.

What is the rate at which an object moves but doesn't include direction?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
Great question !

The rate at which an object covers distance, without worrying
about the direction it's moving, is the object's SPEED .

When the direction is also given, then you have the object's VELOCITY.


This question is important.  It gives us a chance to point out that
"velocity" is not just a fancy word for speed that you use when you
want to sound smart.  There's actually an important difference between
'speed' and 'velocity'.

To qualify to run in the 2005 Boston Marathon, a distance of 26.2 miles, an 18-year-old woman had to have completed another mara
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

7,14545 mph and 3,1936 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed is calculated by dividing the displacement over time, then it is 26,2 miles/(3 2/3 hours), here 3 (2/3) hours is a mixed number, that represents 11/3 hours or 3,66 hours. Then the average speed is 7,14545 mph, now to turn this into meters per second, we notice as mentioned that 1 mile =1609 meters and 1 hour=3600 seconds. Then 7,14545 miles/hour* (1 hour/3600 seconds) * (1609 meters/1 mile)=3,1936 m/s

A hockey pick sliding along a frictional surface strikes a box at rest, after the collision the two objects stick together and m
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Option a is correct  

If puck and pick constitute a system then the momentum of the system is conserved but not this may not be valid for the puck .

Option e is correct

If puck and pick is the system then momentum is conserved but because of the presence of friction, mechanical energy is not conserved.

Friction will cause the energy to dissipate in heat.

Two football players are pushing a 60 kg blocking sled across the field at a constant speed of 2.0 m/s. The coefficient of kinet
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The sled slides d=0.155 meters before rest.

Explanation:

m= 60 kg

V= 2 m/s

μ= 0.3

g= 9.8 m/s²

W= m * g

W= 588 N

Fr= μ* W

Fr= 176.4 N

∑F = m * a

a= (W+Fr)/m

a= 12.74m/s²

t= V/a

t= 0.156 s

d= V*t - a*t²/2

d= 0.155 m

Could someone answer this?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Here the circuit in which a 4Ω resistor resistor is connected in series and two 8Ω resistor resistors are connected in parallel. Also, ammeter and voltmeter connected in series and parallel circuit respectively.

Now,

The maximum power of each resistance is 16 W

The 4Ω resistor is linked in series with the circuit.

so, P o w e r = I

two

R, here i is the current through the resistor resistor R

1 6 = I

two

∗ 4 Ω

i = 2A

Now 2A passes through parallel resistors of 8Ω resistance.

we know that, in parallel, the potential difference must be constant,

the current is divided into two parts, because the same resistance current in each resistance will be half. then the current through each resistor in parallel is

2 A

two

.

= 1 A

So finally the current through the 4Ω resistor = 2 A

current through each 8Ω resistor = 1 A

Explanation:

I hope this answer has helped you
