Explain why the brakes of a car get much hotter than the brakes of a bicycle?

Physics
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]2 years ago
8 0

Answer: Car brakes produces more energy then the bicycle because the cars wheels produces a much bigger force that makes the car go and to stop that force the car uses greater amount of energy that transfers to heat  but in a bicycle the wheels do not turn that fast so when you press the break there is less energy that transfer to heat.

What is the approximate pressure of a storage cylinder of recovered r-410a that does not contain any non-condensable impurities
Aliun [14]

Answer:

173psig

Explanation:

The storage cylinder of recovered R-410A is mixture of difluoromethane and pentafluoroethane which is used as a refrigerant in air conditioning application. The refrigeration sector has low temperatures for installation. The pressure of cylinder at 80 F will be 173 psig. The pure refrigerants have inside a container have saturation temperature which is equal to ambient temperature.

The wavelength of some red light is 700.5 nm. what is the frequency of this red light?
Alborosie
The frequency of the red light is 428 terahertz. To get the value of the red light's frequency, use the formula F = velocity/wavelength. The velocity of light is 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. For easier computation, convert 700.5 nanometers to meter. 1 nanometer is equal to 1 x 10^-9 meters. 700.5 nanometers is equal to 7.005 x 10^-7 meters. Divide the velocity 3.00 x 10^8m/s by wavelength 7.005 x 10^-7 meters. The result will be 4.28 x 10^14 Hertz or 428 terahertz.

The length of the side of a cube having a density of 12.6 g/ml and a mass of 7.65 g is __________ cm.
qaws [65]

Density is the characteristic property of a substance.  It is the measure of mass of the substance divided by its volume (density= mass/volume). Manipulate the given formula to come up with the formula for the volume. Therefore, volume is equals to mass of a substance divided by its density (Vol= mass/density). Given 12.6 g/ml as density and 7.65 g mass, volume is equals to 0.60714 ml, since 1 ml = 1cm^3, volume is equals to 0.60714 cm^3 then extract the cube root of the volume to get the length of the cube in cm which is equal to 0.84677 cm.

Does a fish appear closer or farther from a person wearing swim goggles with an air pocket in front of their eyes than the fish
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

In this case, the index of seawater replacement is 1.33, the index of refraction of air is 1, which is why the angle of replacement is less than the incident angle, so the fish seems to be closer

In the opposite case, when the fish looked at the face of the man, the angle of greater reason why it seems to be further away

Explanation:

This exercise can be analyzed with the law of refraction that establishes that a ray of light when passing from one medium to another with a different index makes it deviate from its path,

      n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

where n₁ and n₂ are the refractive indices of the incident and refracted means and the angles are also for these two means.

In this case, the index of seawater replacement is 1.33, the index of refraction of air is 1, which is why the angle of replacement is less than the incident angle, so the fish seems to be closer

1 sin θ₁ = 1.33 sin θ₂

        θ₂ = sin⁻¹ ( 1/1.33 sin θ₁)

In the opposite case, when the fish looked at the face of the man, the angle of greater reason why it seems to be further away

Suppose 1 kg of Hydrogen is converted into Helium. a) What is the mass of the He produced? b) How much energy is released in thi
morpeh [17]

Answer:

a) m = 993 g

b) E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J

Explanation:

atomic mass of hydrogen = 1.00794

4 hydrogen atom will make a helium atom = 4 × 1.00794 = 4.03176

we know atomic mass of helium = 4.002602

difference in the atomic mass of helium = 4.03176-4.002602 = 0.029158

fraction of mass lost = \dfrac{0.029158}{4.03176}= 0.00723

loss of mass for 1000 g = 1000 × 0.00723 = 7.23

a) mass of helium produced = 1000-7.23 = 993 g (approx.)

b) energy released in the process

E = m c²

E = 0.00723 × (3× 10⁸)²

E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J
