Before going to solve this question first we have to understand specific heat capacity of a substance .
The specific heat of a substance is defined as amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance through one degree Celsius. Let us consider a substance whose mass is m.Let Q amount of heat is given to it as a result of which its temperature is raised from T to T'.
Hence specific heat of a substance is calculated as-
![c= \frac{Q}{m[T'-T]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=c%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BQ%7D%7Bm%5BT%27-T%5D%7D)
Here c is the specific heat capacity.
The substance whose specific heat capacity is more will take more time to be heated up to a certain temperature as compared to a substance having low specific heat which is to be heated up to the same temperature.
As per the question John is experimenting on sand and water.Between sand and water,water has the specific heat 1 cal/gram per degree centigrade which is larger as compared to sand.Hence sand will be heated faster as compared to water.The substance which is heated faster will also cools faster.
From this experiment John concludes that water has more specific heat as compared to sand.
Answer:
If the radio wave is on an FM station, these are in Megahertz. A megahertz is one ... Typical radio wave frequencies are about 88~108 MHz .
Explanation:
To calculate the wavelength of a radio wave, you will be using the equation: Speed of a wave = wavelength X frequency.
Since radio waves are electromagnetic waves and travel at 2.997 X

8
meters/second, then you will need to know the frequency of the radio wave.
If the radio wave is on an FM station, these are in Megahertz. A megahertz is one million hertz. If the radio wave is from an AM radio station, these are in kilohertz (there are one thousand hertz in a kilohertz). Hertz are waves/second. Hertz is usually the label for the frequency of electromagnetic waves.
To conclude, to determine the wavelength of a radio wave, you take the speed and divide it by the frequency.
Typical radio wave frequencies are about

This question can be answered by using conversation of energy.
Explanation:
Note that we take 
because we are looking for the minimum initial speed for the penguin to reach the top of the second hill. Any other speed more than this will already be enough for him.
Answer:
Explanation:
angular momentum of the putty about the point of rotation
= mvR where m is mass , v is velocity of the putty and R is perpendicular distance between line of velocity and point of rotation .
= .045 x 4.23 x 2/3 x .95 cos46
= .0837 units
moment of inertia of rod = ml² / 3 , m is mass of rod and l is length
= 2.95 x .95² / 3
I₁ = .8874 units
moment of inertia of rod + putty
I₁ + mr²
m is mass of putty and r is distance where it sticks
I₂ = .8874 + .045 x (2 x .95 / 3)²
I₂ = .905
Applying conservation of angular momentum
angular momentum of putty = final angular momentum of rod+ putty
.0837 = .905 ω
ω is final angular velocity of rod + putty
ω = .092 rad /s .
