According to Newton's law of cooling, the rate at which an object's temperature changes is directly proportional to the differen

ce in temperature between the object and the surrounding medium. If T(t) represents the temperature of the object (CC) at time t (in hours), and T5 represents the constant temperature of the surrounding medium, then the differential equation best describing the rate of change in the temperature of the object is:

Answer:

dT/dt = k[T5 - T]

Explanation:

DT/dt represents rate of change in temperature for Celsius degrees per hour. Its proportional to the difference in temperature between the object and the Surrounding medium. This means either dT/Dt =k (T-TS) or dT/dt=k(TS-T) with k being some positive constant of proportionality which depends on the object.

We can see that dT/dt = k(T-T5) has temperature increasing when the temperature of the object T is greater than the surrounding medium (T5).

The equation dT/dt=k(T5-T) has the temperature increasing when the object (T) is less than the temperature of the surrounding medium. Therefore the differential equation best describing the rate of change in temperature of the object is dT/dt=k(T5-T) for some positive constant of proportionality k.

Answer:

dT(t)/dt = k[T5 - T(t)]

Explanation:

Since T(t) represents the temperature of the object and T5 represents the temperature of the surroundings, according to Newton's law of cooling, the rate at which an object's temperature changes is directly proportional to the difference in temperature between the object and the surrounding medium, that is dT(t)/dt ∝ T5 - T(t)

Introducing the constant of proportionality

dT(t)/dt = k[T5 - T(t)]

which is the desired differential equation

The charges on two metallic balls are 5.0 and 7.0 coulombs respectively. They are kept 1.2 meters apart. What is the force of in
Marysya12 [62]
We know, F = k * q₁ * q₂ / r²

Substitute the known values, 
F = 9 * 10⁹ * 5 * 7 / (1.2)²

F = 315 * 10⁹ / 1.44

F = 218.75 * 10⁹ N

F = 2.1875 * 10¹¹ N   [ Final Answer ]

Hope this helps!

What is the difference between the B-field and the H-field?
Simora [160]
The H field is in units of amps/meter.  It is sometimes called the auxiliary field. It describes the strength (or intensity) of a magnetic field. The B field is the magnetic flux density.  It tells us how dense the field is.  If you think about a magnetic field as a collection of magnetic field lines, the B field tells us how closely they are spaced together. These lines (flux linkages) are measured in a unit called a Weber (Wb).  This is the analog to the electric charge, the Coulomb.  Just like electric flux density (the D field, given by D=εE) is Coulombs/m²,  The B field is given by Wb/m², or Tesla.  The B field is defined to be μH, in a similar way the D field is defined.  Thus B is material dependent.  If you expose a piece of iron (large μ) to an H field, the magnetic moments (atoms) inside will align in the field and amplify it.  This is why we use iron cores in electromagnets and transformers.
So if you need to measure how much flux goes through a loop, you need the flux density times the area of the loop Φ=BA.  The units work out like 
Φ=[Wb/m²][m²]=[Wb], which is really just the amount of flux.  The H field alone can't tell you this because without μ, we don't know the "number of field" lines that were caused in the material (even in vacuum) by that H field.  And the flux cares about the number of lines, not the field intensity.
I'm way into magnetic fields, my PhD research is in this area so I could go on forever.   I have included a picture that also shows M, the magnetization of a material along with H and B.  M is like the polarization vector, P, of dielectric materials. If you need more info let me know but I'll leave you alone for now!

If the given wave has a frequency of 100 Hz, what frequency will the sixth harmonic have?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

600Hz

Explanation:

In electrical systems of alternating current, the harmonics are, as in acoustics, frequencies multiples of the fundamental working frequency of the system and whose amplitude decreases as the multiple increases. For example, if we have systems fed by the 50 Hz network, harmonics of 100, 150, 200, etc. may appear.

In our case having a fundamental wave of 100Hz, I can have harmonics of 200,300,400, ..., 600Hz

In 2-3 complete sentences, explain why the needle on a compass always points in the direction of magnetic north.
Alex17521 [72]
The needle on a compass always points in the direction of magnetic north because of the magnetic poles of earth. the compass is essentially a magnet itself, so the southern pole of the compass is attracted to the northern pole of earth.
