Answer:
something that can be burned to produce heat
Explanation:
Combustion can be defined as an exothermic chemical reaction between physical substances, usually in the presence of oxygen and hydrocarbons to produce heat, light and carbon.
A fuel can be defined as something that can be burned to produce heat.
In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.
Which of the following statements is true?
Answer:
Aluminum and steel are good conductors of electricity.
Explanation:
1) All materials are good conductors of electricity.
This is false because nonmetal materials such as plastic or wood cannot conduct electricity.
2) Aluminum and steel are good conductors of electricity.
This is true. All metals are conductors of electricity.
3) Gold and wood are poor conductors of electricity.
This is false. Although gold can conduct electricity, wood can't.
4) Plastic and copper are good conductors of electricity.
This is false. Although copper can conduct electricity, plastic can't.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
B) Aluminum and steel are good conductors

Suppose you are standing at the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, the place on the earth's surface that compasses point toward. You have a compass that is free to swivel in any direction. Which way does your compass point? Suppose you are standing at the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, the place on the earth's surface that compasses point toward. You have a compass that is free to swivel in any direction. Which way does your compass point? It would point up. It would point east. It would point down. It would point west.
Answer:
It would point up.
Explanation:
Since I am at the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, the place on the earth's surface that compasses point toward, the north pole of the compass would also point towards the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, since all other compasses point toward there.
Since the compass is free to swivel in any direction, the compass would point up, since it is at the earth's geographic north magnetic pole, the place on the earth's surface that compasses point toward.
So, the compass would point up.

What is the current in a parallel circuit which has two resistors (17.2 ohms and
22.4 ohms) and a power source of 6.0 volts?
ОА.
0.30 amps
OB.
9.8 amps
OC.
0.61 amps
D.
1.2 amps
Reset
Next
Answer:
Current in a parallel circuit = 0.61 amps (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Voltage V = 6 volt
Two resistors = 17.2 , 22.4 in parallel circuit
Find:
Current in a parallel circuit
Computation:
1/R = 1/r1 + 1 / r2
1/R = 1/17.2 + 1 / 22.4
R = 9.73 ohms (Approx)
Current in a parallel circuit = V / R
Current in a parallel circuit = 6 / 9.73
Current in a parallel circuit = 0.61 amps (Approx)
a toy of mass 600 is whirled by a child in a horizontal circle using a string of length 2m with a linear speed of 5 m/s determine the angular velocity of the toy?
Explanation:
angular velocity = velocity/radius
= 5/2
= 2.5 rad/s
Difference between on pitch and frequency
Answer:
A high pitch sound corresponds to a high frequency sound wave and a low pitch sound corresponds to a low frequency sound wave. I hope I got it correct !!
tank contains 335 kg of water at a uniform temperature of 60oC. The tank is insulated and not heated; it neither loses nor gains heat through the walls of the tank. A valve is opened and water exits the tank at a rate of 0.5 kg/sec and a temperature of 60oC. After 10 seconds the valve is closed again . Using the assumption that water at zero degrees centigrade contains zero energy and considering only internal, how much energy left the tank through the valve during this 10 second period; report as kJ.
Answer:
Explanation:
Thermal energy or internal energy gain or loss = mass x specific heat x temperature
specific heat of water = 4.2 kJ / kg degree Celsius
mass of water lost in 10 second = rate of loss x time = .5 x 10 = 5 kg .
heat energy associated with lost water = 5 x 4.2 x ( 60 - 0 ) = 1260 kJ .
Heat energy lost = 1260 kJ .
If the net force acting on an object is 0 N, you can be sure that the forces acting on the object are
A. balanced B.Unbalanced C. acting at the same direction
I think the answer would be A.
After all, it is 0 which is technically a dead center number meaning that the net should be balanced and still.
Hope this helps and have a nice day.

Answer:
the laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers
Explanation:
In the legend of William Tell, Tell is forced to shoot an apple from his son's head for failing to show respect to a high official. In our case, let's say Tell stands 8.7 meters from his son while shooting. The speed of the 144-g arrow just before it strikes the apple is 20.4 m/s, and at the time of impact it is traveling horizontally. If the arrow sticks in the apple and the arrow/apple combination strikes the ground 8 m behind the son's feet, how massive was the apple
Answer:
M = 0.31 kg
Explanation:
This exercise must be done in parts, let's start by finding the speed of the set arrow plus apple, for this we define a system formed by the arrow and the apple, therefore the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved
let's use m for the mass of the arrow with velocity v₁ = 20.4 m / s and M for the mass of the apple
initial instant. Just before the crash
p₀ = m v₁ + M 0
instant fianl. Right after the crash
p_f = (m + M) v
p₀ = p_f
m v₁ = (m + M) v
v =[tex]\frac{m}{m+M} \ v_1[/tex] (1)
now we can work the arrow plus apple set when it leaves the child's head with horizontal speed and reaches the floor at x = 8 m. We can use kinematics to find the velocity of the set
x = v t
y = y₀ + [tex]v_{oy}[/tex] t - ½ g t²
when it reaches the ground, its height is y = 0 and as it comes out horizontally, [tex]v_{oy} = 0[/tex]
0 = h - ½ g t²
t² = 2h / g
For the solution of the exercise, the height of the child must be known, suppose that h = 1 m
t = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{ 2 \ 1}{9.8} }[/tex]
t = 0.452 s
let's find the initial velocity
v = v / t
v = 8 / 0.452
v = 17.7 m / s
From equation 1
v = m / (m + M) v₁
m + M = [tex]m \ \frac{v_1}{v}[/tex]
M = m + m \ \frac{v_1}{v}
we calculate
M = 0.144 + 0.144 [tex]\frac{20.4}{17.7}[/tex]
M = 0.31 kg
Fifty grams of ice at 0◦ C is placed in a thermos bottle containing one hundred grams of water
at 6◦ C. How many grams of ice will melt? The heat of fusion of water is 333 kJ/kg and the
specific heat is 4190 J/kg · K.Immersive Reader
Answer:
7.55 g
Explanation:
Given that:
Heat of fusion = 333kj/kg
Heat capacity, c = 4190 j/kg /k
The Number of grams of ice that will melt can be represented as y:
Number of grams of ice that will melt * heat of fusion = specific heat capacity * temperature change
y * 333 * 10^3 J = (4190) * (6 - 0)
333000y = 25140
y = 25140 / 333000
y = 0.0754954 kg
y = 0.0754954 * 100
y = 7.549 g
Hence, Number of grams of ice that will melt = 7.55 g
An object swings in a horizontal circle, supported by a 1.8-m string. It swings at a speed of 3 m/s. What is the mass of the object given that the tension in the string is 90 N?
Answer:
Mass = 18 kg
Explanation:
Formula for force in centripetal motion is;
F = mv²/r
We have;
Mass; m.
Speed; v = 3 m/s
radius; r = 1.8 m
Force; F = 90 N
Thus;
Making m the subject;
m = Fr/v²
m = 90 × 1.8/3²
m = 18 kg
