Explanation:
One prong is known as the hot wire, where the electricity comes in, while the second prong is the neutral wire and electricity leaves. Recall that a circuit must be made for electrons to flow. This means that electrons enters your house through the transmission wires and then the electrons leave along the same lines they entered (just along a different wire).
This set up describes a 2 pronged cord. Adding a third prong allows for a grounding to happen. In the event of an electrical surge, when too many electrons are flowing, disaster is likely to happen without some kind of safety features. The grounding prong allows electrons to seek the ground. You can think of it like a drain in a bathtub when too much water gets in the tub.
Answer:
3 pronged cord

A body with mass 2 kg absorbs heat 418.4J when its temperature raises from 293K to 343K . What is the specific heat of the body?
Answer:
C M (change in T) = heat absorbed thermal equation for heat gained
C = 418.4 J / (2 kg * 50 deg K) = 4.184 J / kg * deg K specific heat
Note: 1 gm =.001 kg
So C = .004184J / gm * deg K
Also, 1 J = .239 cal so in conventional terms
C = .001 cal / gm deg K (very low, water would be 1 cal / gm deg C
Henry designs an experiment to find out why plants without flowers tend to be wind-pollinated and not animal-pollinated. He takes samples from a variety of plants and studies them in the field. He finds that the evidence supports his hypothesis. Which of these was the hypothesis Henry was testing? Choose the correct answer. Nonflowering plants make less pollen than flowering plants. Nonflowering plants lack the structures to attract animal pollinators. Nonflowering plants grow close to the ground and capture fewer pollinators. Nonflowering plants grow close to the ground because they have no pollen grains.

A horizontal pole is attached to the side of a building. There is a pivot P at the wall and a chain is connected from the end of the pole to a point higher up the wall. There is a tension force F in the chain. What is the moment of the force F about the pivot P?
Answer:
Fscos63
Explanation:
Given that a horizontal pole is attached to the side of a building. There is a pivot P at the wall and a chain is connected from the end of the pole to a point higher up the wall. There is a tension force F in the chain. What is the moment of the force F about the pivot P?
Taking the moment from the pivot point P, that means the moment at point p = 0
Then, if we consider the weight mg of the pole, according to the principle of equilibrium : sum of the upward forces equal to the sum of the downward forces.
Therefore, mg = Fsinø ....... (1)
Also, taking moment at point P
Let the length of the pole = s
The length of the weight of the pole = 1/2 S
Fscosø = mgs/2
The distance s will cancel out
2Fcosø = mg ...... (3)
Substitute mg in equation 1 into equation 3
2fcosø = fsinø
F will cancel out
Tanø = 2
Ø = tan^-1(2)
Ø = 63.4 degree
The moment of force F about pivot point P will be
Moment = force × distance
Moment = Fcos63 × S
Moment = Fscos63

B. The volume that the substance takes up.
C. The chemical composition.
D. The temperature of the substance.
The thing same about a particle as gas, liquid, or solid is its chemical composition.
What are states of matter?
Matter exists in three different states: solid, liquid, and gas. By examining the configuration of their particles, it is possible to understand why they have various qualities. Theoretically, at this temperature, particles move slowly and have the least amount of energy.
Phase refers to the material's actual state. To pay attention to is the word physical. Only physical means can change the state of matter. You can make a physical change if energy is added (by raising the temperature) or subtracted (by freezing things).
The chemical composition of matter same about a particle as gas, liquid or solid.

A ‘can-chiller’ is used to make a can of drink colder. The initial temperature of the liquid in the can was 25.0 °C. The can-chiller decreased the temperature of the liquid to 20.0 °C. The amount of energy transferred from the liquid was 6930 J. The mass of liquid in the can was 0.330 kg.
Calculate the specific heat capacity of the liquid. Give the unit.
Please help :)
Answer:
4200 J/°C/kg
Explanation:
The formula for heat transfer is given by :
Q= m*c*ΔT where;
Q= heat transferred = 6930 J
m=mass of the liquid = 0.330 kg
c= specific heat capacity=?
ΔT = 25-20 = 5.0°C
Applying the values in the formula as;
Q= m*c*ΔT
6930 = 0.330 * c * 5
6930 = 1.65 c
6930/1.65 = c
4200 = c
c= 4200 J/°C/kg

An object is subject to a 84 Nm torque about a point when a
21 N of force is applied to a second point along the object's
length. How far apart are the two points
Answer:
d = 4[m]
Explanation:
Torque in physics is defined as the product of force by distance. This way you can use the following equation to calculate the torque.
[tex]T=F*d[/tex]
where:
T = torque [N*m]
F = force [N]
d = distance [m]
Now replacing in the equation above.
[tex]84=21*d\\\\d= 4[m][/tex]
A car battery produces 12 from electric that each produce 2.0 V. What is the minimum number of electric cells in car battery?
Answer:
6
Explanation:
From the given question, since a total of 12 V was obtained from the battery which is made up of a number of cells with each producing 2.0 V.
Assuming that the cells have a very low internal resistance, then;
minimum number of electric cells in the car battery = [tex]\frac{total voltage from the cells}{individual voltage of the cells}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{12}{2}[/tex]
= 6
Thus, the minimum number of electric cells in the car battery is 6.
This implies that the addition of 6 cells which has 2.0 V supply in the battery produces a total of 12 V. Provided that the cells have a very low internal resistance.

A box weighs 1300 N. When a horizontal force of 390 N has applied the box accelerates at 1.3 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the frictional force?
Answer:
Ffriction = 217.7[N]
Explanation:
First, we must find the mass of the box, we must remember that the weight is defined as the product of the mass by acceleration.
[tex]w=m*g[/tex]
where:
w = weight [N] (units of Newtons)
m = mass [kg]
g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]
[tex]1300=m*9.81\\m=132.51[kg][/tex]
Now we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.
∑F = m*a
where:
∑F sum of forces
m = mass = 132.51[kg]
a = acceleration = 1.3[m/s²]
We must know that the forces that act are the horizontal force that moves the box and the friction force in the negative direction that acts against the movement.
Now replacing:
[tex]390-f_{friction}=132.51*1.3\\390-172.26=f_{friction}\\f_{friction}=217.7[N][/tex]

Therefore, the gravitational force between them is:
[tex]F=6.67\cdot 10^{-11}\frac{55\cdot40}{0.1^2}= \fbox{$1.5\cdot 10^{-5}\:\mathrm{N}$}[/tex] (two significant figures).
Janet jumps off a high diving platform with
a horizontal velocity of 2.6 m/s and lands in
the water 1.5 s later.
How far from the base of the platform
does she land? The acceleration of gravity
is 9.8 m/s?
Answer in units of m.
Answer:
11.025m
Explanation:
In this question there is no vertical velocity,
t= 1.5s
Height of platform=h
From Newton equation
s = ut + 1/2gt^2
But there is no vertical velocity,
Hence,
Then u=0
h = 0 + 1/2 x 9.8 x (1.5)^2
h = 11.025m

Due to the fact that sound is caused by vibrations, it's more noticeable in liquid because the vibrations may cause ripples in the liquid
A 2-kg ball traveling eastward at 5 m/s hits a 5-kg ball moving at 1 m/s eastward. The 2-kg ball bounces west at 3.0 m/s. What is the speed of the 5kg ball?
Answer:
1.8 m/s
Explanation:
Step one:
given data
m1= 2kg
u1= 5m/s
m2= 5kg
u2= 1m/s
v1= 3m/s
From
m1u1+m2u2= m1v1+m2v2
substitute
2*5+5*1 = 2*3+5*v2
10+5= 6+5v2
15-6= 5v2
9= 5v2
divide both side by 5
v2= 9/5
v2= 1.8 m/s

Which of these pairs of atoms are isotpoes? (Physical Science) Pair A Pair B Pair C # protons 6 8 5 2 12 12 # neutrons 8 8 5 3 13 14
Answer:
I guess that the atoms are:
Protons: 6 8 5 2 12 12
Neutrons: 8 8 5 3 13 14
Now, two atoms are isotopes if they share the same number of protons (so both atoms are the same element) but they have a different number of neutrons.
From the given options, the only two that have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons are:
Protons 12, neutrons 13
and
Protons 12, neutrons 14.
These two are isiotopes.

Interference happens when two waves interact between them. We usually use waves with the same wavelength and same phase.
There are two "main" types of interference:
Destructive interference: Happens when the peak of one wave and the trough of the other wave happen in the same place, then when we add these waves, we have a subtraction, and then the amplitude of the resultant wave is smaller than the amplitudes of the original waves (if both initial waves have the same amplitude, then the amplitude of the resultant wave in that position is zero).
Constructive interference: Similar to the previous case, but now the two waves have the peaks or toughs in the same position, then when we add the waves, we have an addition in the amplitude, then the amplitude of the resultant wave will be larger than the amplitudes of the initial waves.
Then if you are looking for constructive interference, you need to look for an option where the peaks of the waves coincide. For example, in the top image we can see, at the top, a wave with an amplitude of 2 units.
And at the bottom a wave with an amplitude of 1 unit.
We also can see that the peaks (and the tough) are in the same place, then we will have constructive interference. Then the amplitude of the resultant wave will be equal to the sum of the amplitudes of the initial waves (2 and 1)
Then the amplitude of the resultant wave is 2 units + 1 unit = 3 units.
