What happens to the heat energy when you increase the length of an object

Talja [164]

Answer: When the temperature of an object increases, the average kinetic energy of its particles increases. When the average kinetic energy of its particles increases, the object's thermal energy increases. Therefore, the thermal energy of an object increases as its temperature increases.

Can someone help me a bit on this? Will mark brainliest. ( no physical science option soooo)

Advocard [28]

Answer:

When a light wave goes through a slit, it is diffracted, which means the slit opening acts as a new source of waves. How much a light wave diffracts<em> (how much it fans out)</em> depends on the wavelength of the incident light. The wavelength must be larger than the width of the slit for the maximum diffraction. Thus, for a given slit, red light, because it has a longer wavelength, diffracts more than the blue light.

The corresponding relation for diffraction is

$d sin(\theta) \approx \lambda$ ,

where $\lambda$ is the wavelength of light, $d$ is the slit width, and $\theta$ is the diffraction angle.

From this relation we clearly see that the diffraction angle $\theta$ is directly proportional to the wavelength $\lambda$ of light—longer the wavelength larger the diffraction angle.

Without using a micrometer screw gauge, how do I find the average diameter of a long piece of thin wire using a metre rule and a

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Wind the long piece of thin wire around the uniform glass rod multiple times, find the length of the total diameters using the metre ruler, and divide by the number of times you wound it around the rod.

Explanation:

Since the diameter of one long piece of thin wire is too thin to be measured by a metre ruler, you can wind it multiple times and push it side by side to get a length you can measure.

For example, if you wound it around 20 times and the total length of 20 diameters of the wire side-by-side is 2.0 cm, one winding, which is the diameter would be 2.0cm ÷ 20 = 0.10cm or 1mm.

A copper cylinder is initially at 21.1 ∘C . At what temperature will its volume be 0.163 % larger than it is at 21.1 ∘C?

fomenos

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the final volume of a body after undergoing a thermal expansion. To determine the temperature, we will use the given relationship as well as the theoretical value of the volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion of copper. This is, for example to the initial volume defined as $V_1$ , the relation with the final volume as

$V_2 = V_1 +0.163\% V_1$

$V_2 = V_1 +0.00163V_1$

$V_2 = 1.00163V_1$

Initial temperature = $21.1\°C$

Let T be the temperature after expanding by the formula of volume expansion

we have,

$V_2 = V_1 (1+\gamma \Delta t)$

Where $\gamma$ is the volume coefficient of copper $5.1*10^{-5}/C$

$1.00163V_1 = V_1(1+\gamma(T-21.1\°))$

$1.00163 = 1+5.1*10^{-5}(T-21.1\°)$

$0.00163 = 0.000051T-0.0010761$

$T = 53.0608\°C$

Therefore the temperature is 53.06°C
