Physics
1 answer:
Daniel [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

something that can be burned to produce heat

Explanation:

Combustion can be defined as an exothermic chemical reaction between physical substances, usually in the presence of oxygen and hydrocarbons to produce heat, light and carbon.

A fuel can be defined as something that can be burned to produce heat.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

A current of 0. 82 a flows through a light bulb. how much charge passes through the light bulb during 94 s?
gladu [14]

A current of 0. 82A flows through a light bulb. The charge passed through the light bulb during 94 s is 77.08C

The amount of charge flown for a given period of time determines the current passed through a bulb or electrical body.

The relation between the charge, current and time is given as:

Q = I × t

where, Q is the charge flown through bulb

I is the current passed through bulb

t is the time for which charge passes through bulb

Given,

I = 0.82A

t = 94s

Q = ?

Substituting the values in the above formula:

Q = I × t

Q = 0.82 × 94

Q = 77.08C

Hence, The charge passed through the light bulb during 94 s is 77.08C

You are on a rooftop and you throw one ball straight down and another straight up. The second ball, after rising, falls and also
Lelu [443]

Answer:

2 the speed of the second ball is larger than that of the first one

Explanation:

Using the equations of motion

The second ball was thrown up , on getting to its highest point V=0, H=1/2gt^2

The second ball was. Now has two heights , the distance from the rooftop and the height it reached when the ball was thrown up.

v^2= u^2+2a(H1+H2)

The first ball has a velocity of v^2=2gH

Therefore the second ball velocity is larger than the first ball

A woman can read the large print in a newspaper only when it is at a distance of 55 cm or more from her eyes.
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Farsightedness (hyperopic)

2.79 D

Explanation:

When a person cannot see something which is close to their eyes this condition is known as farsightedness. She should use a convex lens to correct her eye sight.

u = Object distance =  22-2.7 = 19.3 cm

v = Image distance = -55+2.7 = -52.3 cm

f = Focal length

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{19.3}+\frac{1}{-52.3}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f}=\frac{3300}{100939}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{100939}{3300}=30.58\ cm

The power of a lens is given by

P=\frac{1}{f}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{1}{0.358}=2.79\ D

The power of her glasses should be 2.79 D

Calculate the kinetic energy of a 0.032 kg ball as it leaves a hand to be thrown upwards at 6.2 m/s
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The ball will have a kinetic energy of 0.615 Joules.

Explanation:

Use the kinetic energy formula

E_k = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}0.032kg\cdot 6.2^2 \frac{m^2}{s^2}= 0.615J

The kinetic energy at the moment of leaving the hand will be 0.615 Joules. (From there on, as it ball is traveling upwards, this energy will be gradually traded off with potential energy until the ball's velocity becomes zero at the apex of the flight)
