Thermal equilibrium is attained and the both rods are now at the same temperature.

<h3>What is thermal equilibrium?</h3>

Two bodies are said to have attained thermal equilibrium when the two bodies at the same temperature. It should be known that when two rods are firmly attached to each other heat flows from one rod to another.

As such, after some time, thermal equilibrium is attained and the both rods are now at the same temperature.

From a set of graphed data the slope of the best fit line is found to be 1.35 m/s and the slope of the worst fit line is 1.29m/s

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Solution:

Let the slope of the best fit line be represented by ' $m_{best}$ '

and the slope of the worst fit line be represented by ' $m_{worst}$ '

Given that:

$m_{best}$ = 1.35 m/s

$m_{worst}$ = 1.29 m/s

Then the uncertainity in the slope of the line is given by the formula:

$\Delta m = \frac{m_{best}-m_{worst}}{2}$ (1)

Substituting values in eqn (1), we get

$\Delta m = \frac{1.35 - 1.29}{2}$ = 0.03 m/s

A stuntman of mass 48 kg is to be launched horizontally out of a spring-

Damm [24]

The velocity of the stuntman, once he has left the cannon is 5 m/s.

The right option is O A. 5 m/s

The Kinetic energy of the stuntman is equal to the elastic potential energy of the spring.

<h3 /><h3>Velocity: </h3>

This is the ratio of displacement to time. The S.I unit of Velocity is m/s. The velocity of the stuntman can be calculated using the formula below.

⇒ Formula:

mv²/2 = ke²/2
mv² = ke².................. Equation 1

⇒ Where:

m = mass of the stuntman
v = velocity of the stuntman
k = force constant of the spring
e = compression of the spring

⇒ Make v the subject of the equation

v = √(ke²/m)................. Equation 2

From the question,

⇒ Given:

m = 48 kg
k = 75 N/m
e = 4 m

⇒ Substitute these values into equation 2

v = √[(75×4²)/48]
v = √25
v = 5 m/s.

Hence, The velocity of the stuntman, once he has left the cannon is 5 m/s.

The right option is O A. 5 m/s

A calorimeter is used to determine the specific heat capacity of a test metal. If the specific heat capacity of water is known,

denis23 [38]

Answer:

initial and final temperatures of both the water and metal, mass of the metal, and mass of the water

Explanation:

Heat lost by the metal, $Q = mc(t_{2} - t_{1})$

Heat gained by the water in the calorimeter, $Q_{w} = m_{w}c_{w}(t_{2w} - t_{1w})$

For energy to be conserved in the system, the heat lost by the metal will equal the heat gain by the water in the calorimeter.

$mc(t_{2} - t_{1}) = m_{w}c_{w}(t_{2w} - t_{1w})$

Where,

m is the mass of the metal

c is specific heat capacity of the metal

t₂ is the final temperature of the metal

t₁ is the initial temperature of the metal

$m_{w}$ is the mass of the water

$c_{w}$ is specific heat capacity of water

$t_{2w}$ is the final temperature of water

$t_{1w}$ is the initial temperature of water

From the question given, specific heat capacity of the water is known, the quantities to be measured are;

Initial and final temperatures of both the water and metal,

Mass of the metal, and mass of the water

Two insulated wires, each 2.50 m long, are taped together to form a two-wire unit that is 2.50 m long. One wire carries a curren

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

3.46 A

Explanation:

The force (F) exerted on a wire of a particular length (L) carrying current (I) through a magnetic field (B) at an angle (θ) to the magnetic field is given as

F = (B)(I)(L) sin θ

F = 3.13 N

B = 0.360 T

I = ?

L = 2.50 m

θ = 79°

3.13 = (0.360 × I × 2.5 × sin 79°)

0.8835 I = 3.13

I = 3.54 A

But this is the resultant current in this magnetic field.

Since the two wires are conducting current in opposite directions,

Resultant current = 7 - (current in the other wire)

Current in the other wire = 7 - 3.54 = 3.46 A
