<u>Answer</u>
A. Metals A and metals B
<u>Explanation</u>
Heat transfer takes place whenever there is temperature difference. When two bodies of different temperatures are brought together, heat energy will move from one body to the other until equilibrium temperature is reached.
In our case, heat transfer will take place in all four metals.
Metal A will transfer heat to the water since it's temperature is higher than that of water.
Metal B will also transfer heat to the water since it's temperature is higher than that of water.
Metal C will get heat from the water since it's colder than the water.
Metal D will also get heat from the water since it is colder than water.
4 for sure because you dont want anything spilling on you or others that is harmful.
Answer:
Block A will have a final charge of 3.5nC.
Explanation:
This is because at the point of contact with Block B, which is electrically positive, the electrons in Block A will be attracted to the excess 'unpaired' protons in block B. Hence, the electrons will flow into Block B causing unpaired protons to remain in Block A.
This process is called Charging by Conduction.
This charging process will continue until the charges are evenly distributed between both objects.
In case you're wondering, "<em>how's all this possible within a few seconds</em>?", remember that electrons travel very fast and so, this process is a rather rapid one.
Answer:
each resistor is 540 Ω
Explanation:
Let's assign the letter R to the resistance of the three resistors involved in this problem. So, to start with, the three resistors are placed in parallel, which results in an equivalent resistance
defined by the formula:

Therefore, R/3 is the equivalent resistance of the initial circuit.
In the second circuit, two of the resistors are in parallel, so they are equivalent to:

and when this is combined with the third resistor in series, the equivalent resistance (
) of this new circuit becomes the addition of the above calculated resistance plus the resistor R (because these are connected in series):

The problem states that the difference between the equivalent resistances in both circuits is given by:

so, we can replace our found values for the equivalent resistors (which are both in terms of R) and solve for R in this last equation:
