Tin shears have longer handles than the scissors used to cut cloth why ​

Physics
1 answer:
Irina18 [472]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A pair of scissors used to cut a piece of cloth has blades longer than the handles so that the blades move longer on the cloth than the movement at the handles.

While shears used for cutting metals have short blades and long handles because as it enables us to overcome large resistive force by a small effort.

Heat transfer between two substances is affected by specific heat and the
IgorLugansk [536]

The correct answer is D. Amount of time and area of physical contact between the substances.

Explanation:

Heat transfer refers to the flow of thermal energy or heat between two or more objects. This process involves multiple factors and implies heat from the hottest object goes to the coldest one until there is an equilibrium. To begin, heat transfer depends on the amount of thermal energy in the objects because objects must have a different amount of thermal energy for heat to flow.

Besides this, the amount of energy that flows depends on the time and the contact between the substances of objects. Indeed, objects need to be in contact or close to each other for heat to transfer, and the time needs to be enough for the process to occur. For example, if you place a pot over the fire just for a few seconds it is likely the heat transferred is minimal, which does not occur if you leave the pot more time. At the same time if the pot is in close contact with fire more heat will be transferred.-

Question 2.
boyakko [2]

The tensile stress of the wire supporting 2 kg mass is determined as 6.1 x 10⁷ N/m².

<h3>Tensile stress of the wire</h3>

The tensile stress of the wire is calculated as follows;

σ = F/A

where;

  • A is area of the wire

A = πr² = πD²/4

where;

  • D is diameter = 0.64 mm

A = π x (0.64 x 10⁻³)²/4

A = 3.22 x 10⁻⁷ m²

σ = F/A = (mg)/A = (2 x 9.8)/( 3.22 x 10⁻⁷)

σ = 6.1 x 10⁷ N/m²

Three conducting plates, each of area A, are connected as shown.
Shkiper50 [21]
You have effectively got two capacitors in parallel. The effective capacitance is just the sum of the two. 
Cequiv = ε₀A/d₁ + ε₀A/d₂ Take these over a common denominator (d₁d₂) 
Cequiv = ε₀d₂A + ε₀d₁A / (d₁d₂) Cequiv = ε₀A( (d₁ + d₂) / (d₁d₂) ) 
B) It's tempting to just wave your arms and say that when d₁ or d₂ tends to zero C -> ∞, so the minimum will occur in the middle, where d₁ = d₂ 
But I suppose we ought to kick that idea around a bit. 
(d₁ + d₂) is effectively a constant. It's the distance between the two outer plates. Call it D. 
C = ε₀AD / d₁d₂ We can also say: d₂ = D - d₁ C = ε₀AD / d₁(D - d₁) C = ε₀AD / d₁D - d₁² 
Differentiate with respect to d₁ 
dC/dd₁ = -ε₀AD(D - 2d₁) / (d₁D - d₁²)² {d2C/dd₁² is positive so it will give us a minimum} For max or min equate to zero. 
-ε₀AD(D - 2d₁) / (d₁D - d₁²)² = 0 -ε₀AD(D - 2d₁) = 0 ε₀, A, and D are all non-zero, so (D - 2d₁) = 0 d₁ = ½D 
In other words when the middle plate is halfway between the two outer plates, (quelle surprise) so that 
d₁ = d₂ = ½D so 
Cmin = ε₀AD / (½D)² Cmin = 4ε₀A / D Cmin = 4ε₀A / (d₁ + d₂)
