A tungsten filament is a thin wire made of tungsten metal used in light bulbs and other electrical devices. Tungsten has a high melting point and excellent conductivity, making it ideal for producing light when heated. It can withstand high ...
Vapour is the gaseous state of a substance that is typically liquid or solid at room temperature. It forms when the substance evaporates or sublimates. Vapour can exist below its boiling point and can be seen as mist or steam ...
Radiation is the transfer of energy through electromagnetic waves or particles. Unlike conduction and convection, radiation does not require a medium and can occur in a vacuum. It includes visible light, infrared radiation, ultraviolet rays, and other electromagnetic waves. Objects ...
Radiating power refers to the amount of energy emitted by a body per unit area per unit time due to its temperature. It is governed by Stefan-Boltzmann law and depends on the body’s temperature and surface properties. A hotter object ...
Coalesce refers to the process of merging or coming together to form a single entity. It is commonly used in various contexts such as science technology and social dynamics. Coalescence can occur in physical systems like droplets or in ideas ...
A collision occurs when two or more bodies exert forces on each other during their interaction. Collisions can be elastic or inelastic. In elastic collisions, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved while inelastic collisions conserve momentum but not kinetic ...
A ball with a velocity of 2 m/s collides head-on with a stationary ball of double mass. Using the coefficient of restitution of 0.5, the final velocities after the collision are 0 m/s for the first ball and 1 m/s ...
A motor is a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy through electromagnetic principles. It typically consists of a rotor and a stator, enabling rotation. Motors are widely used in various applications including household appliances vehicles and industrial machinery ...
Potential energy is the stored energy of an object due to its position or configuration. Common types include gravitational potential energy dependent on height and mass and elastic potential energy associated with the deformation of elastic materials. It plays a ...
