Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Specific heat of gold  = 0.031cal/°C

Specific heat of silver  = 0.057cal/°C

To know the metals that will heat up faster, we must understand the meaning of specific heat capacity.

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1g of a substance by 1°C.

Now,

The higher the specific heat capacity the more energy it is required to heat up the substance.

So, Gold with a specific heat capacity of 0.031cal/°C  will heat up faster.

Define the law of universal gravitation in your own words.

Two particles in a high-energy accelerator experiment are approaching each other head-on, each with a speed of 0.9520c as measur
Over [174]

Answer:

the magnitude of the velocity of one particle relative to the other is 0.9988c

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Velocities of the two particles = 0.9520c

Using Lorentz transformation

Let relative velocity be W, so

v_r = ( u + v ) / ( 1 + ( uv / c²) )

since each particle travels with the same speed,

u = v

so

v_r = ( u + u ) / ( 1 + ( u×u / c²) )  

v_r = 2(0.9520c) / ( 1 + ( 0.9520c )² / c²) )  

we substitute

v_r = 1.904c / ( 1 + ( (0.906304 × c² ) / c²) )  

v_r = 1.904c / ( 1 + 0.906304 )

v_r = 1.904c / 1.906304

v_r = 0.9988c

Therefore, the magnitude of the velocity of one particle relative to the other is 0.9988c

The potential energy of a watermelon is 15.0 J. The watermelon is 3.0 m high. What is the mass of the watermelon?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

m = 0.51[kg]

Explanation:

Potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height.

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

Epot = potential energy = 15 [J]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.8 [m/s²]

h = elevation = 3 [m]

Now replacing:

E_{pot}=m*g*h\\15=m*9.8*3\\m = 0.51[kg]

Three long parallel wires each carry 2.0-A currents in the same direction. The wires are oriented vertically, and they pass thro
blagie [28]

Answer:

21.2\times 10^{-6} T

Explanation:

i  = magnitude of current in each wire = 2.0 A

a  = length of the side of the square = 4 cm = 0.04 m

r  = length of the diagonal of the square = \sqrt{2} a = \sqrt{2} (0.04) = 0.057 m

B = magnitude of magnetic field by wires at A and C

B = \left ( \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi } \right )\left ( \frac{2i}{a} \right )

B = (10^{-7}) \left ( \frac{2(2)}{0.04} \right )

B = 10\times 10^{-6} T

B' = magnitude of magnetic field by wire at B

B' = \left ( \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi } \right )\left ( \frac{2i}{r} \right )

B' = (10^{-7}) \left ( \frac{2(2)}{0.057} \right )

B' = 7.02\times 10^{-6} T

Net magnitude of the magnetic field at D is given as

B_{net} = \sqrt{B^{2}+B^{2}} + B'

B_{net} = \sqrt{2} B + B'

B_{net} = \sqrt{2} (10\times 10^{-6}) + (7.02\times 10^{-6})

B_{net} = 21.2\times 10^{-6} T
