Suppose a pendulum clock has been calibrated to be accurate in San Francisco, where g = 9.800 m/s2 . In Camrose, g = 9.811 m/s2

is slightly larger due to the effect of Earth’s rotation at a higher latitude. Explain why the clock will either run perfectly, run too quickly, or run too slowly in Camrose.

The clock would run too slowly in Camrose.

Since the period of the pendulum T = 2π√(L/g) where L = length of clock and g = acceleration due to gravity.

Now since g = 9.800 m/s² in San Francisco and g = 9.811 m/s² in Camrose, we see that g increases.

From the expression for the period T, since L is constant, we find that

T ∝ 1/√g

Since g increases, so, T would decrease.

Thus, the clock would run too slowly in Camrose.

Heat is transferred from the sun to the earth via electromagnetic waves (see Chapter 24). Because of this transfer, the entropy
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

1.  Decreases,

2.   Increases,

3.   Increases

Explanation:

The heat which is a product of sun's energy, is transferred from the sun to the earth through radiation, conduction or convention. This heat passes through the earth atmosphere, then warms it , before becoming heat energy.

Therefore, Heat is transferred from the sun to the earth via electromagnetic waves . Because of this transfer, the entropy of the sun DECREASES, the entropy of the earth INCREASES and the entropy of the sun-earth system INCREASES.

Two high-current transmission lines carry currents of 29.0 A and 78.0 A in the same direction and are suspended parallel to each
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

I_1=29 A

I_2=78 A

d=38 cm=\frac{38}{100}=0.38 m

1 m=100 cm

a.Length of segment,l=20 m

Magnetic force ,F=\frac{2\mu_0I_1I_2 l}{4\pi d}

\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}=10^{-7}

Substitute the values

F=\frac{10^{-7}\times 29\times 78\times 20}{0.38}=0.0119 N

Hence, the magnetic force exert by each segment on the other=0.0119 N

b.We know that when current carrying in the wires are in same direction then the force will attract to each other.

Hence, the force will be attractive.

What characteristics determine how easily two substances change temperature
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer;

Amount of time the two substances are in contact

Area in contact between the two substances

Specific heat of the material that makes up the substances

Explanation;

The change in temperature of a substance is caused by heat energy. The change in temperature will depend on factors such as mass of the substance, the type of material it is made from, the time taken , specific heat of the material that makes the substance, and also the area of contact.

The amount of time the two substances are in contact affect the change in temperature such that if the two bodies are in contact for a longer time then a bigger change in temperature will be observed.

Specific heat capacity also determines the change in temperature that will be observed, such that a substance with a bigger specific heat capacity will record a small change in temperature.

Eric has a mass of 70 . He is standing on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating downward at 1.7 . What is the approximate
pychu [463]

Answer:

B)

Explanation:

The value the scale shows is the reaction force to the normal force (they are equal by Newton's 3rd Law) that the scale exerts on Eric.

The forces on Eric are his weight (downward) and this normal force (upward), so we can write the net force over him as (also using Newton's 2nd Law):

F=W-N=ma

which means

N=W-ma=mg-ma=m(g-a)

and for our values this is:

N=mg-ma=(70kg)(9.8m/s^2-1.7m/s^2)=567N
