The correct answer to fill
in the blank would be:
“a barrier island”
Barrier islands are
coastal landforms and a category of dune system that are remarkably even or
lumpy areas of sand that was formed by wave and tidal actions that are parallel
to the mainland coast. Due to this feature, there are no enough sand blockades
to minimize the destruction by Hurricane Sandy.
If dirt and grease were good conductors of electrical current, then we could make wire
out of dirt and grease instead of expensive copper. Sadly, they're not. So a coating of
dirt and grease on the wire can have a substantial impact on the connection, and can
even block the flow of current across the connection completely. Moreover, in the case
where the ends of the wires are to be soldered, solder does not adhere to dirty wire.
<h2>When two object P and Q are supplied with the same quantity of heat, the temperature change in P is observed to be twice that of Q. The mass of P is half that of Q. The ratio of the specific heat capacity of P to Q</h2>
Explanation:
Specific heat capacity
It is defined as amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree celsius .
It is given as :
Heat absorbed = mass of substance x specific heat capacity x rise in temperature
or ,
Q= m x c x t
In above question , it is given :
For Q
mass of Q = m
Temperature changed =T₂/2
Heat supplied = x
Q= mc t
or
X=m x C₁ X T₁
or, X =m x C₁ x T₂/2
or, C₁=X x 2 /m x T₂ (equation 1 )
For another quantity : P
mass of P =m/2
Temperature= T₂
Heat supplied is same that is : X
so, X= m/2 x C₂ x T₂
or, C₂=2X/m. T₂ (equation 2 )
Now taking ratio of C₂ to c₁, We have
C₂/C₁= 2X /m.T₂ /2X /m.T₂
so, C₂/C₁= 1/1
so, the ratio is 1: 1
