Brian and Jack decided to investigate which water fountain at school has the coldest water. The two boys take measurements using

identical equipment and return several minutes later with four temperature recordings. Surprisingly, even though the two boys measured the same fountains, their data showed different temperatures. Some of Brian's temperatures were lower than Jack's. Which statement would most likely explain the differences in their data? A) Brian walked around the school and Jack ran. B) Brian kept the thermometer in the water longer than Jack did. C) Jack guessed at his measurements and Brian did the real measuring. D) Brian used a Fahrenheit thermometer and Jack used a Celsius thermometer.

MArishka [77]
The answer is 1.01 x 10^(-11) N. I arrived to this answer through calculating the GPEs of both balls. Bjorn's ball has a GPE of 1.402 x 10^(-11) N. Billie Jean's ball has a GPE of <span>2.503 x 10^(-11) N. I subtracted the two and I found that Billie Jean's tennis ball has a GPE of 1.01 x 10^(-11) more than Bjorn's tennis ball.</span>

Th e heat capacity of air is much smaller than that of water, and relatively modest amounts of heat are needed to change its tem
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Q=1005 J

t= 0.67 sec

Explanation:

Lets take condition of room is 1 atm and 25°C.

Heat capacity ,c = 21 J /K.mol

If we assume that air is ideal gas that

P V = n R T

V= 5.5\times 6.5\times 3\ m^3

V=107.25\ m^3

V=107.25\times 1000 L

V= 107250 L

At STP number of moles given as

n=\dfrac{V}{V_{at\ S.T.P.}}

V=22.4 L at S.T.P.

n=\dfrac{107250}{22.4}\ moles

n=4787.94 moles

n= 4.784 Kmoles

So heat required to raise 10°C temperature

Q = n x c x ΔT

Q = 4.78794 x 21 x 10

Q=1004.64 J

Time t

t= Q/P

P= 1.5 KW

t = 1.004.64 /1.5

t= 0.66 sec

A hot piece of iron is thrown into the ocean and its temperature eventually stabilizes. Which of the following statements concer
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

E. The ocean gains more entropy than the iron loses.

Explanation:

When there is a spontaneous process , entropy of the system increases . Here hot iron is losing entropy and ocean is gaining entropy . Net effect will be gain of entropy . That means entropy gained by ocean is more than entropy lost by iron .

Hence option E is correct .

A block of mass m is pushed up against a spring with spring constant k until the spring has been compressed a distance x from eq
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Spring is compressed to a distance of x from its equilibrium position

Work done by block on the spring is equal to change in elastic potential energy

i.e. Work done by block W=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

therefore spring will also done an equal opposite amount of work on the block in the absence of external force

Thus work done by spring on the block W=-\frac{1}{2}kx^2

Thus option d is correct

A flywheel of mass M is rotating about a vertical axis with angular velocity ω0. A second flywheel of mass M/5 is not rotating a
Contact [7]

Answer:

0.83 ω

Explanation:

mass of flywheel, m = M

initial angular velocity of the flywheel, ω = ωo

mass of another flywheel, m' = M/5

radius of both the flywheels = R

let the final angular velocity of the system is ω'

Moment of inertia of the first flywheel , I = 0.5 MR²

Moment of inertia of the second flywheel, I' = 0.5 x M/5 x R² = 0.1 MR²

use the conservation of angular momentum as no external torque is applied on the system.

I x ω = ( I + I') x ω'

0.5 x MR² x ωo = (0.5 MR² + 0.1 MR²) x ω'

0.5 x MR² x ωo = 0.6 MR² x ω'

ω' = 0.83 ω

Thus, the final angular velocity of the system of flywheels is 0.83 ω.
