Clothing acts as insulation to keep body heat in. Bryan wants to know whether a wool sock or a cotton sock will be better at keeping heat in. He puts the wool sock around cup 1 and the cotton sock around cup 2 and then fills both cups with hot water. How can he tell which sock is a better insulator? A. measure the temperature of the air B. measure the temperature of each sock by itself C. measure which cup of water stays hot the longest D. measure how long it takes to drink the water

Along wire carrying a 4.2 a current perpendicular to the xy-plane intersects the x-axis at x=−1.7cm. a second, parallel wire carrying a 3.0 a current intersects the x-axis at x=+1.7cm. part a at what point on the x-axis is the magnetic field zero if the two currents are in the same direction? express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

The ability to make things happen is also called a. heat b. force c. matter d. energy

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 740 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of theta= 26 with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is uk = 0.17. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. the block's initial mechanical energy is 9.472 j.b. if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance l in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.
