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.

A car starts from rest and after 10 seconds is traveling at 20 m/s. Assuming that it continues to accelerate at the same rate it
Alenkinab [10]

Assuming that it continues to accelerate at the same rate it will take another 10 seconds to reach 40 m/s.

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the first question states that there is a change in the velocity from rest to 20 m/s in 10 seconds time interval. So the acceleration experienced by the car during this 10 seconds should be determined first as follows:

Acceleration = (final velocity-initial velocity)/Time

Acceleration = (20-0)/10 = 2 m/s².

So this means the car is traveling with an acceleration of 2 m/s².

As it is stated that the car continues to move with same acceleration, then in the second case, the acceleration is fixed as 2 m/s², initial velocity as 20 m/s and final velocity as 40 m/s. So the time taken for the car to reach this velocity with the constant acceleration value will be as follows:

Time = Change in velocity/Acceleration

Time = (40-20)/2 = 20/2=10 s

So again in another 10 seconds by the car to reach 40 m/s from 20 m/s. Similarly the car will take a total of 20 seconds to reach from rest to 40 m/s value for velocity.

32. In Fiji, the firewalkers perform on pumice after going into a cataleptic trance. Why is pumice especially suitable?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Pumice is used for cleaning foot. Foot are wet with warm water and then scrub by pumice so that hard and dry skin can be removed. It is quite effective in cleaning skin.

Pumice is also used as light weight material in concrete mix. Due to it porous texture, it is a good light weight material.

The primary difference between a barometer and a manometer is
Nitella [24]

Answer:

a barometer is used to measure atmospheric pressure, and a manometer is used to measure gauge pressure.

Explanation:

A barometer measures air pressure at any locality with sea level as the reference.

However, a manometer is used to measure all pressures especially gauge pressures. Thus, if the aim is to measure the pressure at any point below a fluid surface, a barometer is used to determine the air pressure. The manometer may now be used to determine the gauge pressure

The algebraic sum of these two values gives the absolute pressure.

Find the kenetic energy of a car of mass 700kg racing with a velocity of 10m/s
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

35000 KJ

Explanation:

The equation for the kinetic energy is given by the formula :

E_{k} = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

E_{k} = \frac{1}{2} (700)(10)^{2}

E_{k} = \frac{1}{2} (700)(100)

E_{k} = (350)(100)  OR E_{k} = \frac{1}{2} (70000)

E_{k} = 35000

Units will be kilojoules since the units of mass was kilograms .

Our final answer is 35000 KJ

Hope this helped and have a good day

A vector has a component of 10 m in the x-direction, a component of 10 m in the y-direction, and a component of 5 m in the z dir
Kobotan [32]

The magnitude of this vector is 15

A vector is a quantity or phenomenon that has two independent properties: magnitude and direction. The term also denotes the mathematical or geometrical representation of such a quantity. Examples of vectors in nature are velocity, momentum, force, electromagnetic fields, and weight.

The magnitude of a vector formula is used to calculate the length for a given vector (say v) and is denoted as |v|. So basically, this quantity is the length between the initial point and endpoint of the vector.

Let vector be = a

component of vector in x direction = 10 i

component of vector in y direction = 10 j

component of vector in z direction = 5 z

vector a = 10 i + 10 j + 5 z

magnitude of vector a = |a| = \sqrt{10^{2} +10^{2} + 5^{2}    }

                                             = 15
