A vibrator causes water ripples to travel across the surface of a tank. The wave travels 50cm in 2s and the distance between successive crests is 5cm. Calculate the frequency of the vibrator
A thermocouple thermometer is connected to a millivoltmeter which can read up to 10mV. When one junction is in ice at 0°C and the other is steam at 100°C, the millivoltmeter reads 4mV. What is the maximum temperature which this arrangement can measure
An alternating current can induce voltage because it has
The limiting frictional force between two surfaces depends on
I. the cohesive force of the material
II. the nature of the surfaces in contact
III. the relative velocity between the surfaces
During the transformation of matter from the solid to the liquid state, the heat supplied does not produce a temperature increase because
