What does it mean for objects to be at different temperatures?

1 answer:

4 0

The temperature of an object is dependant on its heat capacity and the rate at which heat can be removed from its surface. Heat conduction depends on the structure and capability of the atoms to move within the material and pass on their energy to other atoms. Some materials are better conductors then others that is why two objects can be in the same room but feel two different temperatures. It is also true if two object are at different temperatures and are in contact with one another they will reach the same temperature.

Starting fom rest, a car accelerates at a constant rate, reaching 88 km/h in 12 s. (a) What is its acceleration? (b) How far doe

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

(A) $a=2.0.37m/sec^2$

(B) s = 146.664 m

Explanation:

We have given car starts from the rest so initial velocity u = 0 m /sec

Final velocity v = 88 km/hr

We know that 1 km = 1000 m

And 1 hour = 3600 sec

So $88km/hr=88\times \frac{1000}{3600}=24.444m/sec$

Time is given t = 12 sec

(A) From first equation of motion v = u+at

So $24.444=0+a\times 12$

$a=2.0.37m/sec^2$

So acceleration of the car will be $a=2.0.37m/sec^2$

(b) From third equation of motion $v^2=u^2+2as$

So $24.444^2=0^2+2\times 2.037\times s$

s = 146.664 m

Distance traveled by the car in this interval will be 146.664 m

New 5G networks utilize millimeter-wave radiation. Millimeter-wave radiation refers to electromagnetic waves with frequencies in

seraphim [82]

Answer:

It corresponds to 1mm-10 mm range.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves (such as the millimeter-wave radiation) travel at the speed of light, which is 3*10⁸ m/s in free space.
As in any wave, there exists a fixed relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength, as follows:

$v = \lambda * f (1)$

Replacing v= c=3*10⁸ m/s, and the extreme values of f (which are givens), in (1) and solving for λ, we can get the free-space wavelengths that correspond to the 30-300 GHz range, as follows:

$\lambda_{low} = \frac{c}{f_{high}} = \frac{3e8m/s}{300e9Hz} = 1 mm (2)$

$\lambda_{high} = \frac{c}{f_{low}} = \frac{3e8m/s}{30e9Hz} = 10 mm (3)$

2. A common physics experiment involves lowering an open tube into a cylinder of water and moving the tube up and down to adjust

notsponge [240]

Answer:

Explanation:

This question pertains to resonance in air column. It is the case of closed air column in which fundamental note is formed at a length which is as follows

l = λ / 4 where l is length of tube and λ is wave length.

here l = .26 m

λ = .26 x 4 = 1.04 m

frequency of sound = 330 Hz

velocity of sound = frequency x wave length

= 330 x 1.04

= 343.2 m /s

b )

Next overtone will be produced at 3 times the length

so next length of air column = 3 x 26

= 78 cm

c )

If frequency of sound = 256 Hz

wavelength = velocity / frequency

= 343.2 / 256

= 1.34 m

= 134 cm

length of air column for resonance

= wavelength / 4

134/4

= 33.5 cm
