What characteristics determine how easily two substances change temperature

Physics
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer;

Amount of time the two substances are in contact

Area in contact between the two substances

Specific heat of the material that makes up the substances

Explanation;

The change in temperature of a substance is caused by heat energy. The change in temperature will depend on factors such as mass of the substance, the type of material it is made from, the time taken , specific heat of the material that makes the substance, and also the area of contact.

The amount of time the two substances are in contact affect the change in temperature such that if the two bodies are in contact for a longer time then a bigger change in temperature will be observed.

Specific heat capacity also determines the change in temperature that will be observed, such that a substance with a bigger specific heat capacity will record a small change in temperature.

A diver is swimming underneath an oil slick with a thickness of 200 nm and an index of refraction of 1.50. A white light shines
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

thickness of oil t = 200 nm

index of refraction μ = 1.5

For transmitted light :---

path difference = 2μ t

For constructive interference

path difference = n λ , λ is wavelength  of light

2μ t = n λ

λ = 2μ t /  n

For longest λ , n = 1

λ = 2μ t

= 2 x 1.5 x 200 nm

= 600 nm

Wavelength in water

= 600 / refractive index of water

= 600 / 1.33

= 451.1 nm Ans

Dimension of radius of sphere​
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The dimension is L

Explanation:

Dimension analysis is a method of representing quantities majorly with respect to some fundamental quantities of mass (M), length (L), time (T).

A sphere has a definite volume which relates to its radius by:

V = \frac{4}{3}\pir^{3}

In this equation \pi is a dimensionless quantity, and the unit of v is m^{3}.

But, metre is a measure of length, thus it has a dimension of L.

So that,

m^{3} ≅ L^{3}

Then,

L^{3} = r^{3}

Find the cube root of both sides to have,

r = L

Therefore, the dimension of the radius of a sphere is L.
