Why a drop of spirit on the hand feels colder than a drop of water at the same temperature​

Physics
1 answer:
brilliants [131]1 year ago
5 0

Answer:

This is because spirit has a lower boiling point when compared to water

Explanation:

spirit has a lower boiling point when compared to water which means it has the capacity to pull more heat from your hand and also it can do this very fast. This is why our hand feels colder.

As demonstrated by the Doppler Effect, why does sound increase in pitch as a sound source approaches you?
scZoUnD [109]
I think so it ans wold be d.because if the source approaches the observer more and more wavefront will pass and it get squeezed.so wavelength decreases and frequency increases.

Seven seconds after a brilliant flash of lightning, thunder shakes the house. How far was the lightning strike from the house? S
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

About two kilometers away

\rm distance=2.401\ km

Explanation:

Given:

The time gap between the light and sound to travel to the house, t=7\ s

<em>Since the clouds are formed in the troposphere region of the atmosphere which extends from 8 kilometers to 12 kilometers above the earth-surface and the velocity of light is 300000 kilometers per second so it is visible almost instantly, hence we neglect the time taken by the light to travel to the house from the clouds.</em>

<u>∴Distance between the lightning-strike and the house:</u>

\rm distance=v\times t

we have the speed of sound as: v=343\ m.s^{-1}

So,

\rm distance=343\times 7

\rm distance=2401\ m

\rm distance=2.401\ km

50 POINTS AND BRAINLEIST A Ferris wheel has a mechanical advantage of ___________________________ one and the trade off is that
kiruha [24]

Answer:

C.) The same as one

Explanation:

Because the Ferris wheel has two bars at the side that keep it in place so it doesn't roll away. The Ferris wheel only moves in one place. If the ferris wheel did roll then you would have a greater than one. If it did roll it would be dangerous.

Unlike a roller coaster, the seats in a Ferris wheel swivel so that the rider is always seated upright. An 80-ft-diameter Ferris
telo118 [61]

Answer:

a

   F_A  =425.42 \ N

b

  F_A_H  = 358.58 \ N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The diameter of the Ferris wheel is  d  =  80 \ ft =  \frac{80}{3.281} =  24.383

    The  period of the Ferris wheel is  T  =  24 \ s

     The  mass of the passenger is  m_g  =  40 \ kg

The  apparent weight of the passenger at the lowest point is mathematically represented as

           F_A_L  =  F_c  + W

Where  F_c is the centripetal force on the passenger,  which is mathematically represented as

         F_c  =m *  r *  w^2

Where w is the angular velocity which is mathematically represented as

         w =  \frac{2* \pi   }{T}

substituting values

         w =  \frac{2* 3.142 }{24}

         w =  0.2618 \ rad/s

and  r  is the radius which is evaluated as r =  \frac{d}{2}

   substituting values

         r =  \frac{24.383}{2}

         r = 12.19 \ ft

So

          F_c  = 40 * 12.19* (0.2618)^2

          F_c  =  33.42 \ N

W is the weight which is mathematically represented as

           W =  40 * 9.8

           W =  392 \ N

So

         F_A    =  33.42 + 392

         F_A  =425.42 \ N

The  apparent weight of the passenger at the highest point is mathematically represented as

          F_A_H  =  W- F_c

substituting values

         F_A_H  = 392 -  33.42

         F_A_H  = 358.58 \ N
