Answer:

Metal heats fast but cotton combusts at a low temperature it would depend on the amount and conditions of each.

Explanation:

equal amounts metal will heat faster

more cotton metal will heat faster

less enough amount of cotton, cotton will combust and therefore it will have heated faster in that case.

metal is a great conducter of heat and cotton is just very flammable

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The new frequency (F₂ ) will be related to the old frequency by a factor of one (1)

Explanation:

Fundamental frequency = wave velocity/2L

where;

L is the length of the stretched rubber

Wave velocity = $\sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}$

Frequency (F₁) = $\frac{\sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}}{2*L}$

To obtain the new frequency with respect to the old frequency, we consider the conditions stated in the question.

Given:

L₂ =2L₁ = 2L

T₂ = 2T₁ = 2T

(M/L)₂ = 0.5(M/L)₁ = 0.5(M/L)

F₂ = $\frac{\sqrt{\frac{2T}{0.5(\frac{M}{L})}}}{4*L} = \frac{\sqrt{4(\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}})}{4*L} = \frac{2}{2} [\frac{\sqrt{\frac{T}{\frac{M}{L}}}}{2*L}] = F_1$

Therefore, the new frequency (F₂ ) will be related to the old frequency by a factor of one (1).

A metal container with the oil weigh

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

16 kg

Explanation:

M - container

m - oil mass

by definition of density ,

relative density is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water.

relative density = density/ density of water

density of oil = 1.2*1000 kgm⁻³ = 1200 kgm⁻³

1 Litre =10⁻³ m³

oil volume = 80 *10⁻³ m³

mass of oil = density * volume

= 1200*80*10⁻³

= 96 kg

Mass of container + mass of oil =112

mass of container = 112 - 96

= 16 kg

The magnitude of Earth’s magnetic field is about 0.5 gauss near Earth’s surface. What’s the maximum possible magnetic force on a

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

$F = 1.5 \times 10^{-16} N$

this force is $1.68 \times 10^{13}$ times more than the gravitational force

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy of the electron is given as

$KE = 1 keV$

$KE = 1 \times 10^3 (1.6 \times 10^{-19}) J$

$KE = 1.6 \times 10^{-16} J$

now the speed of electron is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2 KE}{m}}$

$v = 1.87 \times 10^7 m/s$

now the maximum force due to magnetic field is given as

$F = qvB$

$F = (1.6\times 10^{-19})(1.87 \times 10^7)(0.5 \times 10^{-4})$

$F = 1.5 \times 10^{-16} N$

Now if this force is compared by the gravitational force on the electron then it is

$\frac{F}{F_g} = \frac{1.5 \times 10^{-16}}{9.1 \times 10^{-31} (9.8)}$

$\frac{F}{F_g} = 1.68 \times 10^{13}$

so this force is $1.68 \times 10^{13}$ times more than the gravitational force

concave ray diagrams were constructed in order to determine the general location, size, orientation, and type of image formed by concave mirrors. Perhaps you noticed that there is a definite relationship between the image characteristics and the location where an object placed in front of a concave mirror. but, convexray diagrams were constructed in order to determine the location, size, orientation, and type of image formed by concave mirrors. The ray diagram constructed earlier for a convex mirror revealed that the image of the object was virtual, upright, reduced in size and located behind the mirror.
