Why does metal feel cold

Physics
2 answers:
ikadub [295]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Metal is cold because it is a good conductor. A conductor carries heat away from and object. Heat flows from your hand into the metal and then is conducted rapidly away into the bulk of the metal, leaving the metal surface and your skin surface relatively cool.

Explanation:

You are welcome.

Metal has EXTREME thermal conductors...meaning that the metal can easily change due to weather, even when wind blows on it, usually that is why it is cold

Hope this helps..You're welcome ;)

What is the frequency of a photon with an energy of 4. 56 x 10^-19 j
Sauron [17]

The frequency of a photon with an energy of 4.56 x 10⁻¹⁹ J is 6.88×10¹⁴ s⁻¹.

<h3>What is a frequency?</h3>

The number of waves that travel through a particular point in a given length of time is described by frequency. So, if a wave takes half a second to pass, the frequency is 2 per second.

Given that the energy of the photon is 4.56 x 10⁻¹⁹ J. Therefore, the frequency of the photon can be written as,

\rm \gamma = \dfrac{E}{h} = \dfrac{4.56x10^{-19} J}{6.626 \times 10^{-34}\ Jsec^{-1}}\\\\\\\gamma  = 6.88 \times 10^{14}\ s^{-1}

Hence, the frequency of a photon with an energy of 4.56 x 10⁻¹⁹ J is 6.88×10¹⁴ s⁻¹.

If the only forces acting on a 2.0kg mass are F1 = (3i-8j)N and F2 = (5i+3j)N, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of the
belka [17]

Answer: 4.7m/s²

Explanation:

According to newton's first law,

Force = mass × acceleration

Since we are given more the one force, we will take the resultant of the two vectors.

Mass = 2.0kg

F1+F2 = (3i-8j)+(5i+3j)

Adding component wise, we have;

F1+F2 = 3i+5i-8j+3j

F1+F2 = 8i-5j

Resultant of the sum of the forces will be;

R² = (8i)²+(-5j)²

Since i.i = j.j = 1

R² = 8²+5²

R² = 64+25

R² = 89

R = √89

R = 9.4N

Our resultant force = 9.4N

Substituting in the formula

F = ma

9.4 = 2a

a = 9.4/2

a = 4.7m/s²

Therefore, magnitude of the acceleration of the particle is 4.7m/s²

Astronomers know that the distance between the Earth and the Sun averages 1.50 x108 km. How can astronomers use the observed ste
rodikova [14]

Answer:

The distance of stars and the earth can be averagely measured by using the knowledge of geometry to estimate the stellar parallax angle(p).

From the equation below, the stars distances can be calculated.

D = 1/p

Distance = 1/(parallax angle)

Stellar parallax can be used to determine the distance of stars from an observer, on the surface of the earth due to the motion of the observer. It is the relative or apparent angular displacement of the star, due to the displacement of the observer.

Explanation:

Parallax is the observed apparent change in the position of an object resulting from a change in the position of the observer. Specifically, in the case of astronomy it refers to the apparent displacement of a nearby star as seen from an observer on Earth.

The parallax of an object can be used to approximate the distance to an object using the formula:

D = 1/p

Where p is the parallax angle observed using geometry and D is the actual distance measured in parsecs. A parsec is defined as the distance at which an object has a parallax of 1 arcsecond. This distance is approximately 3.26 light years
