A lava lamp is a decorative item found in some homes. The lamp portion contains a waxy substance in a liquid medium. When the la

mp is plugged in, a bulb at the base of the lamp slowly heats the waxy substance sitting at the bottom of the liquid. Eventually, the waxy substance will separate into globs that quickly rise to the top of the lamp where the surrounding liquid cools them and causes them to fall back to the bottom. Based on the information provided, a lava lamp could be used to provide an example of which process of thermal energy transfer?

Answer:

Conduction, convection, and radiation

Explanation:

Conduction is the process in which energy is transferred from a hot body to a cooler body. Convection is a process by which heat is transferred as a result of the movement of heated fluid in the form of air or water. Radiation refers to the transmission of energy through a material medium.

Based on the information provided, a lava lamp could be used to provide an example of conduction, convection, and radiation.

A jet accelerates from rest down a runway at 1.75m/s² for a distance of 1500 m before takeoff.
babunello [35]
A. Using the third equation of motion:
v2 = u2 + 2as
from the question;
the jet was initially at rest
hence u = 0
a = 1.75m/s2
s = 1500m
v2 = 02 + 2(1.75)(1500)
v2 = 5250
v = √5250
v = 72.46m/s
hence it moves with a velocity of 72.46m/s.
b. s = ut + 1/2at2
1500 = 0(t) + 1/2(1.75)t2
1500 × 2 = 2× 1/2(1.75)t2
3000 = 1.75t2
1714.29 = t2
41.4 = t
hence the time taken for the plane to down the runway is 41.4s.

You are driving a car with an automatic transmission; the shifter is mounted on the steering column. When you press down on the
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

From the narrative in the question, there seem to have been a break failure and the ordered step of response to this problem is to

1) Put on the hazard light to inform other road users of a problem or potential fault with your car and so they should continue their journey with caution.

2) Avoid pressing on the acceleration pedal as this might cause the car to gradually slow down due to friction and gravity

3)Try navigate the car to the service lane. This is the less busy lane where cars are sometimes parked briefly.

4) Continuously pump the breaks to try stop the car. Continuously pumping the breaks might just help you build enough pressure to stop the car because often time, there are some pressure left in the break.

5) At this point, the speed of the car should be relatively slow. So at this point, you could try apply the emergency hand break. Do not pull the emergency hand breaks if the car is on high speed. Doing this may cause the car to skid off the road.

Jupiter's moon Io has a radius of 1.82 ✕ 106 m and a measured gravitational field of 1.80 m/s2. What is its mass (in kg)?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

8.94*10^22 kg

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of Lo, M = ?

Radius of Lo, r = 1.82*10^6 m

Acceleration on Lo, g = 1.80 m/s²

Gravitational constant, G = 6.67*10^-11

Using the formula

g = GM/r²

Solution is attached below

Answer is 8.94*10^22 kg
