Answer:

<em>The </em><em>heat </em><em>capacity</em><em> </em><em>of </em><em>a </em><em>body </em><em>is </em><em>defined</em><em> </em><em>as </em><em>the </em><em>heat </em><em>required</em><em> </em><em>to </em><em>raise </em><em>it's </em><em>temperature</em><em> </em><em>by </em><em>me </em><em>degree </em><em>or </em><em>one </em><em>kelvin.</em><em>w</em><em>h</em><em>i</em><em>l</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>specific</em><em> </em><em>heat </em><em>capacity </em><em>of </em><em>a </em><em>substance</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>defined</em><em> </em><em>as </em><em>the </em><em>heat </em><em>required</em><em> to</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>temperature</em><em> </em><em>of </em><em>a </em><em>unit </em><em>mass </em><em>of </em><em>it </em><em>through </em><em>one </em><em>degree </em><em>or </em><em>one </em><em>kelvin</em><em>.</em>

<em>I </em><em>hope </em><em>it </em><em>helps</em>

A 250 g air-track glider is attached to a spring with springconstant 4.0 N/m. Th damping constant due to air resistance is0.015
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

33.33 seconds

Explanation:

N=\dfrac{1}{e}N_0

N_0 = Initial length pulled = 20 cm

b = Damping constant = 0.015 kg/s

k = Spring constant = 4 N/m

m = Mass of glider = 250 g

Time period is given by

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{0.25}{4}}\\\Rightarrow T=1.57079632679\ s

Using exponential decay formula

N=N_0e^{\dfrac{-bt}{m}}

Final amplitude = Initial times decay

\dfrac{1}{e}0.2=0.2e^{\dfrac{-0.015t}{2\times 0.25}}\\\Rightarrow 0.2=0.2e^{\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1}\\\Rightarrow e^{\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1}=1\\\Rightarrow \ln \left(e^{\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1}\right)=\ln \left(1\right)\\\Rightarrow \left(\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1\right)\ln \left(e\right)=\ln \left(1\right)\\\Rightarrow \frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1=\ln \left(1\right)\\\Rightarrow -\frac{0.015t}{0.5}=-1\\\Rightarrow -0.000225t=-0.0075\\\Rightarrow t=33.33\ s

The time taken is 33.33 seconds

What is a physical property of giant covalent structures?
pav-90 [236]
Very high melting<span> points - Substances with giant covalent structures have very high</span>melting<span> points, because a lot of strong covalent bonds must be broken. Graphite, for example, has a </span>melting point<span> of more than 3,600ºC. Variable conductivity - Diamond does not conduct electricity.</span>

The volume of a gas depends upon its mass true or false
Kruka [31]
I would say false because the volume of gas depends on several things the amount of matter in the volume , the pressure and the temperature. So the answer would be false in my opinion. Because mass is not the only factor

What device produces light by running an electric current through a gas
Andrej [43]

Answer:

fluorescent bulb

Explanation:

A fluorescent bulb is what produces light.

It produces light by passing electric current through a gas to

A fluorescent lamp, is a low-pressure mercury vapor and a gas-discharge lamp that uses fluorescence to produce visible light. like the ones we see.  An electric current in the gas excites mercury vapor, and that produces a short wave ultraviolet light and well that causes a phosphor coating on the inside of the lamp to glow. i tried making this sound as simple as possible.

i hope this really helps you !! thanks this and mark this as brainliest !!!
