You place your hands over a steaming bowl of soup to warm them. Which type of heat transfer are you experiencing?

There could be a little bit of conduction through the air that's between the soup and your hand.  But it's very small, because air is not a good conductor of heat.

It's mostly <em>convection</em> ... hot air and steam rising from the soup to your hand.

Then, of course, there HAS to be some conduction when the hot gases reach your hand ... their heat has to soak into your skin, and that's conduction.

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The time taken is missing in the question. The time is 18 minutes.

The answer is 34.3 km/hr

Explanation:

Average velocity is the speed or the velocity which is required to cover a distance in a time interval.

The time taken is = 18 min

                            = 18/60 hours

The distance from the university to her home is = 10.3 km

Therefore, the average velocity is = displacement/time taken

                                                         = 10.3 / (18/60) km/hr

                                                         = 34.3 km/hr

Hence, the average velocity is 34.3 km/hr

A power station burns 75 kilograms of coal per second. Each kg of coal contains 27 million joules of energy.
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

one kg of coal gives energy of 27 x 10⁶ J

75 kg of coal gives energy of 27 x 10⁶ x 75 J

So rate which energy is coming out of coal per second

= 27 x 10⁶ x 75 J

= 2025 x 10⁶ J /s

2025 million watts .

b ) energy output = 800 million watts

efficiency = (800 / 2025) x 100

= 39.5 % .

A particle moving in the x direction is being acted upon by a net force F(x)=Cx2, for some constant C. The particle moves from x
elixir [45]

Answer:

Change in kinetic energy is ( 26CL³)/3

Explanation:

Given :

Net force applied, F(x) = Cx²  ....(1)

Displacement of the particle from xi = L to xf = 3L.

The work-energy theorem states that change in kinetic energy of the particle is equal to the net amount of work is done to displace the particle.

That is,

ΔK = W = ∫F·dx

Substitute equation (1) in the above equation.

ΔK =  ∫Cx²dx

The limit of integration from xi = L to xf = 3L, so

\Delta K=\frac{C}{3}(x_{f} ^{3} - x_{i} ^{3})

Substitute the values of xi and xf in the above equation.

\Delta K=\frac{C}{3}((3L) ^{3} - L ^{3})

\Delta K=\frac{C}{3}\times26L^{3}

It's your birthday, and to celebrate you're going to make your first bungee jump. You stand on a bridge 110 m above a raging riv
zzz [600]

Answer:

h=20.66m

Explanation:

First we need the speed when the cord starts stretching:

V_2^2=V_o^2-2*g*\Delta h

V_2^2=-2*10*(-31)

V_2=24.9m/s   This will be our initial speed for a balance of energy.

By conservation of energy:

m*g*h+1/2*K*(h_o-l_o-h)^2-m*g*(h_o-l_o)-1/2*m*V_2^2=0

Where

h is your height at its maximum elongation

h_o is the height of the bridge

l_o is the length of the unstretched bungee cord

800h+21*(79-h)^2-63200-24800.4=0

21h^2-2518h+43060.6=0 Solving for h:

h_1=20.66m  and h_2=99.24m  Since 99m is higher than the initial height of 79m, we discard that value.

So, the final height above water is 20.66m
