Water has a high specific heat capacity. Oil has a smaller heat capacity.
arsen [322]3 years ago

Answer:

Because water has a high specific heat, each little bit of water flowing past can give lots of thermal energy to the ice cube. Oil has a smaller specific heat, and so more oil has to flow past to give the same amount of heat energy to the ice cube. ... Colder oil will melt ice less rapidly than warmer oil or water

Ilya [14]

Answer:

 F = 2π I R B

Explanation:

The magnetic force is described by the equation.

      F = q v x B = i L  x B

Where i is the current, L is a vector that points in the direction of the current (length) and B is the magnetic field.

This equation can be used in scalar form and the direction of the force found by the right hand ruler, the thumb goes in the direction of L, the fingers extended in the direction of B and the palm of the hand indicates the direction of the force if the load is positive

     F = i L B sin θ

In this case the wire is in the xy plane and the z-axis field whereby they are perpendicular, θ = 90º and sin 90 = 1

     F = i L B

The loop length is

    L = 2π R

    F = i 2π R B

    F = 2π I R B

The force is in the loop
