A copper rod 81 cm long is used to poke a fire. the hot end of the rod is maintained at 105° c and the cool end has a constant t

The temperature inside the copper rod varies linearly with the distance from the hot end of the rod. This means that we can find the temperature at 23 cm (let's call it 'point A') from the cool end by solving a linear proportion.

The temperature difference between the two ends of the rod is
\Delta T = 105^{\circ}-21^{\circ} = 84^{\circ}
and this corresponds to a length of 81 cm. Therefore, we can write:
84^{\circ}:81~cm = x:23~cm
from which we find
x=23.8~^{\circ}
This is not the final answer actually; this is the temperature difference between the cool end and point A. So, the temperature at point A is
T_A = 21^{\circ}+x=44.8^{\circ}

The kinetic energy of an object depends on what?
liraira [26]
It depends on "Potential Energy", the amount energy it could have, the amount depending on certain circumstances, like height or force. This was how traditional and some modern rollercoasters work. As the "conveyer belt" pulls you up, the higher you go, the more potential energy you have. Once you are falling down the hill, you are experiencing "Kinetic Energy". Hope it makes sence.

HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
Stolb23 [73]

As per the given Figure attached here we know that both charges q1 and q2 will apply same force on charge q3 and hence the resultant force due to both charges will be along Y axis vertically upwards

So here we know that

F = \frac{kq_1q_3}{d_{13}^2}

now from the above equation

F = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(2\times 10^{-6})(4 \times 10^{-6})}{0.5^2}

F = 0.288 N

so both of the charges will apply 0.288 N force on q3 charge along the line joining them

now the net force due to vector sum is given by

F_{net} = 2Fcos\theta

here we know that angle is

\theta = 37 degree

now we have

F_{net} = 2\times 0.288 cos37

F_{net} = 0.46 N

so net force on q3 is 0.46 N vertically upwards along +Y axis

What is the biggest similarity between sports in the United States and sports in other cultures?
leva [86]

Answer:

The first difference is fairly straightforward: other countries prefer other sports. While some aspects of American sports culture are universal there are other things that are sports-specific, such as the 7th-inning stretch at a baseball game or counting the steps of a basketball player after he fouls out.
