Answer:

The temperature of the cooler substance was close to the room temperature. Therefore, the system experienced less change

Explanation:

Generally, in a closed system containing two bodies at different temperatures, there is a flow of heat energy from the body at a higher temperature to the body at a lower temperature. The effect is more significant when there is a large temperature difference between the bodies. However, if the temperature difference is small or insignificant, the change will be less.

Two convex thin lenses with focal lengths 10.0 cm and 20.0 cm are aligned on a common axis, running left to right, the 10-cm len
love history [14]

Answer:

(c) +6.67

Explanation:

f1 = 10 cm

f2 = 20 cm

u = Object distance = 15 cm

Distance between lenses = 20 cm

For first lens image distance

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{10}-\frac{1}{15}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{30}\\\Rightarrow v=30\ cm

Distance from second lens is 10 cm to the right

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{20}-\frac{1}{-10}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{3}{20}\\\Rightarrow v=6.67\ cm

The final image will appear as +6.67 cm

1. A student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.
Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

(a) Displacement of an object is the shortest path covered by it.

In this problem, a student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.  She travels 0.3 km south to retrieve her item. She then travels 0.4 mi north to arrive at school.

0.4 miles = 0.64 km

displacement = 0.7-0.3+0.64 = 1.04 km

(b) Average velocity = total displacement/total time

t = 15 min = 0.25 hour

v=\dfrac{1.04\ km}{0.25\ h}\\\\v=4.16\ km/h

Hence, this is the required solution.

Plants use sunlight as energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Which best describes the reaction? Th
Alina [70]

Answer:

the correct statement is the first

The law of conservation of mass indicates the same amount of carbon will be found in the reactants as in the products.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy establishes that the masses are not destroyed, they can only be transformed.

Therefore the mass of carbon in the reactants (CO2 and H2O) must be in the products (glucose and oxygen)

so the correct statement is the first

The law of conservation of mass indicates the same amount of carbon will be found in the reactants as in the products.

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Wave W is a sound wave, Waves X and Y are light waves, and it is impossible to tell what kind of wave Wave Z is.

Explanation:

W      travels fastest through metal

X       travels fastest through air,

Y       travels more slowly through water than air    

Z       travels more slowly at cool temperatures

W appears to be sound wave  as sound travels fastest through metal .

X appears to be light wave as light travels fastest in air .

Y also appears to be light wave as  speed of light is reduced when it passes from air to water .

Z  It is impossible to tell anything about the nature of Z wave .
