Jeff has 10 grams of water and 10 grams of vegetable oil in separate containers. Both liquids have a temperature of 24°C. Jeff heats both liquids over a flame for five minutes. When he’s finished, he discovers that the temperature of the oil increased more than the temperature of the water. What can Jeff conclude from this experiment? A. Vegetable oil is a better conductor of heat than water.
B. Water is a better conductor of heat than vegetable oil.
C. Vegetable oil has a higher heat capacity than water.
D. Vegetable oil has a lower heat capacity than water.
E. Vegetable oil is a good insulator.

Abatter hits the baseball a with an initial velocity of v0 = 110 ft/sec directly toward fielder b at an angle of 23° to the horizontal; the initial position of the ball is 2.2 ft above ground level. fielder b requires 0.44 sec to judge where the ball should be caught and begins moving to that position with constant speed. because of great experience, fielder b chooses his running speed so that he arrives at the “catch position” simultaneously with the baseball. the catch position is the field location at which the ball altitude is 8.4 ft. determine the velocity of the ball relative to the fielder at the instant the catch is made.

The force needed to overcome static friction is usually less than that needed to overcome kinetic friction.true or false?

Asynthetic fiber used in manufacturing carpet has tensile strength that is normally distributed with mean 75.5 psi and standard deviation 3.5 psi. how is the standard deviation of the sample mean changed when the sample size is increased from n equals 8 to n equals 47
