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

Pani-rosa [81]2 years ago

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.

A large crate is suspended from the end of a vertical rope. Is the tension in the rope greater when the crate is at rest or when
choli [55]

Answer:

Part a)

the tension force is equal to the weight of the crate

Part b)

tension force is more than the weight of the crate while accelerating upwards

tension force is less than the weight of crate if it is accelerating downwards

Explanation:

Part a)

When large crate is suspended at rest or moving with uniform speed then it is given as

F_t - mg = ma

here since speed is constant or it is at rest

so we will have

a = 0

F_t = mg

so the tension force is equal to the weight of the crate

Part b)

Now let say the crate is accelerating upwards

now we can say

F_t - mg = ma

F_t = mg + ma

so tension force is more than the weight of the crate

Now if the crate is accelerating downwards

F_t - mg = -ma

F_t = mg - ma

so tension force is less than the weight of crate if it is accelerating downwards

A plane has an average air speed (this is the speed the plane moves through air) of 750 mph. The plane flies a route of 5000 mil
Digiron [165]

Answer:

6 hours 15 minutes

Explanation:

On the trip from L.A. to London, the plane travels at 750 mph against a headwind of 50 mph, and that makes the net 700 mph (in aviation speak, 750 is the airspeed, while 700 is the groundspeed).  5000 miles divided by 700 mph results in about 7.14 hours, or about 7 hours and 9 minutes.  On the return trip, ASSUMING THE SAME WIND, the plane travels at 750 mph, but this time the wind of 50 mph is a tail wind.  So the net (groundspeed) is 800 mph.  Traveling 5000 miles at 800 mph only takes 6.25 hours, or 6 hours and 15 minutes.  

Outbound flight 7 hours 9 minutes

Return flight 6 hours 15 minutes

The cockroach Periplaneta americana can detect a static electric field of magnitude 8.50 kN/C using their long antennae. If the
otez555 [7]

Answer:

0.647 nC

Explanation:

The force experienced by a charge due to the presence of an electric field is given by

F=qE

where

q is the charge

E is the magnitude of the electric field

In this problem, each antenna is modelled as it was a single point charge, experiencing a force of

F=5.50\mu N = 5.50\cdot 10^{-6} N

Therefore, if the electric field magnitude is

E=8.50 kN/C = 8500 N/C

Then the charge on each antenna would be

q=\frac{F}{E}=\frac{5.50\cdot 10^{-6} N}{8500 N/C}=6.47\cdot 10^{-10} C = 0.647 nC

jesse is swinging miguel in a circle at a tangential speed of 3.50 m/s. if the radius of the circle is 0.600 m and miguel has a
Morgarella [4.7K]
Centripetal acceleration = (speed)² / (radius) .

Force = (mass) · (acceleration)

Centripetal force = (mass) · (speed)² / (radius) .

                             = (11 kg) · (3.5 m/s)² / (0.6 m)

                             = (11 kg) · (12.25 m²/s²) / (0.6 m)

                             =  (11 · 12.25) / 0.6  kg-m/s²

                             =      224.58 newtons.    (about 50.5 pounds)

That's the tension in Miguel's arm or leg or whatever part of his body
Jesse is swinging him by.  It's the centripetal force that's needed in
order to swing 11 kg in a circle with a radius of 0.6 meter, at 3.5
meters/second.  If the force is less than that, then the mass has to
either swing slower or else move out to follow a bigger circle.

charge, q1 =5.00μC, is at the origin, a second charge, q2= -3μC, is on the x-axis 0.800m from the origin. find the electric fiel
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric field due to charge at origin

= k Q / r²

k is a constant , Q is charge and r is distance

= 9 x 10⁹ x 5 x 10⁻⁶ / .5²

= 180 x 10³ N /C

In vector form

E₁ = 180 x 10³ j

Electric field due to q₂ charge

= 9 x 10⁹ x 3 x 10⁻⁶ /.5² + .8²

= 30.33 x 10³ N / C

It will have negative slope θ with x axis

Tan θ = .5 / √.5² + .8²

= .5 / .94

θ = 28°

E₂ = 30.33 x 10³ cos 28 i - 30.33 x 10³ sin28j

= 26.78 x 10³ i - 14.24 x 10³ j

Total electric field

E = E₁  + E₂

= 180 x 10³ j +26.78 x 10³ i - 14.24 x 10³ j

= 26.78 x 10³ i + 165.76 X 10³ j

magnitude

= √(26.78² + 165.76² ) x 10³ N /C

= 167.8 x 10³  N / C .
