We shall consider two properties:
1. Temperature difference
2. Thermal conductivity of the material
Use a cylindrical rod of a given material (say steel) which is insulated around its circumference.
One end of the rod is dipped in a large reservoir of water at 100 deg.C and the other end is dipped in water (with known volume) at 40 deg. C. The cold water if stored in a cylinder which is insulated on all sides. A thermometer reads the temperature of the cold water as a function of time.
This experiment will show that
(a) heat flows from a region of high temperature to a region of lower temperature.
(b) The thermal energy of a body increases when heat is added to it, and its temperature will rise.
(c) The thermal conductivity of water determines how quickly its temperature will rise. If mercury replaces water in the cold cylinder, its temperature will rise at a different rate because its thermal conductivity is different.
Using the equation for period length, you get an answer of about 4.1 seconds.
Answer:
18.7842493212 W
Explanation:
T = Tension = 1871 N
= Linear density = 3.9 g/m
y = Amplitude = 3.1 mm
= Angular frequency = 1203 rad/s
Average rate of energy transfer is given by

The average rate at which energy is transported by the wave to the opposite end of the cord is 18.7842493212 W
Answer:
a)V=18.35 m/s (South -East)
b) t =7.41 m/s
c)D= 66.70 m
Explanation:
Given that
Velocity of boat in east direction = 16 m/s
Velocity of river = 9 m/s
a)The resultant velocity V

V=18.35 m/s (South -East)
b)
We know that
Distance = Velocity x time
Lets t time takes to cross the river
136 = 18.35 x t
t =7.41 m/s
c)
The distance covered downstream
We know that
Distance = Velocity x time
t= 7.41 s
D= 7.41 x 9 m
D= 66.70 m
Answer:3.4 seconds
Explanation:
Initial velocity(u)=0
acceleration=34.5m/s^2
Height(h)=200m
Time =t
h=u x t - (gxt^2)/2
200=0xt+(34.5xt^2)/2
200=34.5t^2/2
Cross multiply
200x2=34.5t^2
400=34.5t^2
Divide both sides by 34.5
400/34.5=34.5t^2/34.5
11.59=t^2
t^2=11.59
Take them square root of both sides
t=√(11.59)
t=3.4 seconds
