The sun's rays have a greater effect on land temperature than they have on water temperature. This can be explained partly by wh

ich of the following?
(1) Some energy from the sun is used to evaporate ocean water.
(2) Less energy is reflected by the water's surface than by the land's surface.
(3) Land materials have a higher specific heat than water has.
(4) Land Materials require more heat energy than water does to raise their temperature 1 degree Celsius.

Answer:

The answer is choice (3)

Explanation: Land materials do require more energy than water to raise their temperature by one degree, hence why water gets heated a lot easier than something like wood.

Suppose you calculated the speed of light in an unknown substance to be 4.00x10^8 m/s. How could you tell if you made an error i
Mice21 [21]

Answer: You could tell if you made an error in your calculations by repeating the steps.

Speed of light is the fastest/maximum in vacuum which is equal to 3 × 10^8 m/s, therefore speed of light through any material equal to 4 × 10^8 m/s is physically and theoretically impossible and therefore incorrect.

A magnetic dipole with a dipole moment of magnitude 0.0243 J/T is released from rest in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 57
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

47.76°

Explanation:

Magnitude of dipole moment = 0.0243J/T

Magnetic Field = 57.5mT

kinetic energy = 0.458mJ

∇U = -∇K

Uf - Ui = -0.458mJ

Ui - Uf = 0.458mJ

(-μBcosθi) - (-μBcosθf) = 0.458mJ

rearranging the equation,

(μBcosθf) - (μBcosθi) = 0.458mJ

μB * (cosθf - cosθi) = 0.458mJ

θf is at 0° because the dipole moment is aligned with the magnetic field.

μB * (cos 0 - cos θi) = 0.458mJ

but cos 0 = 1

(0.0243 * 0.0575) (1 - cos θi) = 0.458*10⁻³

1 - cos θi = 0.458*10⁻³ / 1.397*10⁻³

1 - cos θi = 0.3278

collect like terms

cosθi = 0.6722

θ = cos⁻ 0.6722

θ = 47.76°

Each of the following statements is arguably true of thermometers. Which of them is most helpful to keep in mind if you are cond
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The temperature reported by a thermometer is never precisely the same as its surroundings

Explanation:

In this experiment to determine the specific heat of a material the theory explains that when a heat interchange takes place between two bodies that were having different temperatures at the start, the quantity of heat the warmer body looses is equal to that gained by the cooler body to reach the equilibrium temperature. <u>This is true only if no heat is lost or gained from the surrounding.</u> If heat is gained or lost from the surrounding environment, the temperature readings by the thermometer will be incorrect. The experimenter should therefore keep in mind that for accurate results, the temperature recorded by the thermometer is similar to that of the surrounding at the start of the experiment and if it differs then note that there is either heat gained or lost to the environment.
