Answer:

a material with a low thermal conductivity transfers energy slowly, and may be used as a thermal insulator.

Explanation:

hope this helps! The rate of energy transfer by conduction is greater

Answer:

Los 0.0416km

esto se debe a que transponemos la fórmula acelerada y obtenemos Distancia = velocidad × tiempo

también recuerda transponer los segundos a horas viendo que la velocidad es por hora

A space vehicle is traveling at 3760 km/h relative to Earth when the exhausted rocket motor is disengaged and sent backward. The

almond37 [142]

Answer:

3688 km/h

Explanation:

Given:-

- The speed of vehicle relative to earth, vs_e = 3760 km/h

- The relative speed of command and motor, v_c/m = 90 km/h

- The mass of command = m

- The mass of motor = 4m

Find:-

What is the speed of the command module relative to Earth just after the separation?

Solution:-

- Consider the space vehicle as a system that detaches itself into two parts ( command and motor ). We will assume that the gravitational pull due to Earth on the space vehicle is negligible. With that assumption we have our system in isolation. We will apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum on the system as follows:

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Pi = Pf

M*vs_e = m*vc_e + 4m*vm_e

Where,

M = m + 4m = 5m

vc_e = Velocity of command relative to earth

vm_e = Velocity of motor relative to earth

- We will develop a relation of velocities of command and motor in the frame of earth as follows:

vm_e = v_c/m + vc_e

- Substituting (vm_e) from Equation 2 into Equation 1, we have:

5m*vs_e = m*vc_e + 4m*(v_c/m + vc_e)

5m*vs_e = 5m*vc_e + 4m*(v_c/m)

- Solve for vc_e:

5m*vs_e - 4m*(v_c/m) = 5m*vc_e

vs_e - 0.8*(v_c/m) = vc_e

- Plug in values and evaluate vc_e:

vc_e = 3760 - 0.8*(90)

vc_e = 3,688 km/h

Answer:

7.24 Ω

Explanation:

Power = energy / time = 195 J / 9.81 = 19.88 W

and power = V² / R

R resistance = 12 V² / 19.88 W = 7.24 Ω

A Ferris wheel turns at a constant 150.0 revolutions per hour. (a) Express this rate of rotation in units of radians per second.

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

(a) 0.261 rad/s

(b) 1007.72 m

Explanation:

The angular velocity of the Ferris wheel is 150.0 revolutions per hour.

(a) To calculate the angular velocity of the wheel in units of radians per second, you take into account the following equivalence:

1 hour = 3600 seconds

1 revolution = 2π radians

You use the previous conversion factors:

$150.0\ \frac{rev}{h}*\frac{2\pi \ rad}{1\ rev}*\frac{1\ h}{3600\ s}=0.261\frac{rad}{s}$

In units of radians per seconds the wheel turns at 0.261 rad/s

(b) To find the arc length described by the wheel, you first calculate the angle described by the wheel in the time t, by using the following formula:

$\theta=\omega t$ (1)
