Name the physical quantity measured by the velocity-time graph?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The so-called "velocity-time" graph is actually a "speed-time" graph.  At any point
on it, the 'x'-coordinate is a time, and the 'y'-coordinate is the speed at that time.

'Velocity' is a speed AND a direction.  Without a direction, you do not have a velocity,
and these graphs never show the direction of the motion.  It seems to me that it would be
pretty tough to draw a graph that shows the direction of motion at every instant of time,
so my take is that you'll never see a true "velocity-time" graph. 

At best, it would need a second line on it, whose 'y'-coordinate referred to a second
axis, calibrated in angle and representing the 'bearing' or 'heading' of the motion at
each instant. The graph of uniform circular motion, for example, would have a straight
horizontal line for speed, and a 'sawtooth' wave for direction.

a). balanced force

There's no such thing as either of these.  A group of two or more forces can be balanced or unbalanced.  A single force can't be.

Newtons. Force is mass times acceleration. Mass is measured in kilograms (kg) and acceleration is measured in meters per second squared (m/s^2.) These units (kg and m/s^2) multiplied together like in the equation force equals mass times acceleration (F=ma) gives a product with Newtons as the unit. 

Which of these statements about resistance is true? Choose the best answer.A. The greater the resistance, the easier it is for electricity to flow
B. The greater the resistance, the less thermal energy is produce.
C. The greater the resistance, the more electrical energy is produced.
D. The greater the resistance, the more electrical energy is produced.

Answers


'C' and 'D' are the same statement, and none of the 3 choices
is good.

Electrical energy is produced in a generator, a solar panel, or
a battery, not in things with resistance.

From the generator or battery, current flows through a circuit of
one or more components.

The greater the resistance of a component, the more energy is
LOST as the current flows through it.  The component dissipates
the energy in the form of heat.



This question is not worded in the best possible manner, nor is it specific enough. I also notice that C and D are duplicates.
The answer is B.

A is not true because regarding Ohm's law, V = IR, where V=voltage, I=current, and R=resistance. If we hold Voltage as a constant, (which should be mentioned in the question if it was any good) than we can easily notice that (V)/(R) = I, where I represents current. The larger I is, the easier for electricity to flow. Clearly as resistance increases, current decreases, therefore A is not true.

B is true because of the same reason C (and D) is not true: the greater the resistance, the more power it creates. Again, holding Voltage, or V, as constant, the equation for finding the power (electrical power/energy) of a system is (V^2)/(R) = P. We can notice here again that the greater R is, the less P is. The larger P is, the more energy is dissipated by the circuit. Therefore, since R is getting larger, P is getting smaller, and the amount of heat dissipated becomes less with R's increase.

C and D are not true because of what I explained in B, P gets smaller with R's increase.

I'm really confused about waves and I can't identify the period, frequency, velocity etc in a word problem. Please give examples with units!!! I'm failing science rn!!

Answers

Period is defined as the time required to complete one cycle which is also related to frequency. Period is presented by an equation P = 1/f where p is the period, and f is the frequency. The unit is in second. Frequency is defined as the number of circular revolutions in a given time interval and it is in Hertz (Hz) = 1s^-1. Velocity s defined as the arc traveled at a given time with the equation v=l/t where v is the velocity, l is the length and t is time. The unit is in m/s.

What type of heat transfer is used to fry an egg in a pan and how can you tell?A) It is conduction because the egg gets cooked.
B) It is conduction because the egg is touching the pan.
C) It is convection because you put oil in a frying pan to cook in it.
D) It is convection because you can feel the heat a few inches away from the pan.

Answers

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A process in which transfer of heat occurring when one object touches another object is known as conduction.  

For example, when a pan is heated and then an egg is placed over the pan. Then there will be transfer of heat from pan towards the egg.

As a result, the egg gets cooked because the egg was touching the pan.

Hence, we can conclude that it is conduction because the egg is touching the pan.

Heat transfer is used to fry an egg in a pan, It is conduction because the egg is touching the pan. Hence the correct option is option (B).

When frying an egg in a pan, the primary mode of heat transfer is conduction. Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between two objects or substances.

The pan is heated on a stovetop or a heat source, which causes the pan to become hot. When the egg is placed in the pan, the heat from the pan is transferred to the egg through the process of conduction.

Option A suggests that it is conduction because the egg gets cooked, but this answer does not explain the specific mechanism of heat transfer involved.

Option C mentions convection because oil is used in frying. While oil can enhance the cooking process, convection is not the primary mode of heat transfer in this scenario.

Option D states it is convection because you can feel the heat a few inches away from the pan.

Therefore, option B is the correct answer, as it correctly identifies that the heat transfer involved in frying an egg in a pan is conduction because the egg is touching the pan.

This is a "control" - answer c).

You always need a control in an experiment, otherwise you don't know what influenced the changes. Imagine you make children eat more vegetables and they grow - do you know if it's due to vegetables or not? You need to have another group that eats normal amounts of vegetables to compare this.
