If you have a lump of solid at its melting point ... like ice at 32°F ...
you have to put a certain amount of heat into it just to change it
to water at 32°F. That amount of heat, that's used just to change
a solid lump into liquid without changing its temperature, is called
the heat of fusion for that substance.
The number is different for every substance.
For water, it takes 336 joules of heat to melt 1 gram of ice
into 1 gram of water, all at 32°F (0°C).
That's an enormous latent heat of fusion ... more than almost any
other known substance. That's why ice is such a good choice
when you need something to put in your drink to cool it down.
Ice absorbs a huge amount of heat before it melts and the drink
gets watered down.
Answer:
B)The motion of water in an ocean current
Explanation:
With respect to measurements, a vector has both a magnitude and a direction. The first three examples (maximum height of a hill, air temperature, and rain accumulation) are magnitudes only. The fourth example (motion of water in an ocean current) is a vector, because it has a magnitude (speed) and a direction (with the current).
First one, holding a basketball in the air. Potential energy is the energy it has mostly from gravity. The further you go from the center of mass, the more energy.
Over time, yes. It will over time gain more momentum
Answer:
Explanation:
By multiplying the rotational frequency with the circumference we can determine the average speed of the object. The circular velocity formula is expressed as, vc = 2 πr / T. Where in, r denotes the radius of the circular orbit. T is time period.
