Athermometer is removed from a room where the temperature is 70° f and is taken outside, where the air temperature is 10° f. after one-half minute the thermometer reads 60° f. what is the reading of the thermometer at t = 1 min? (round your answer to two decimal places.) ° f how long will it take for the thermometer to reach 30° f? (round your answer to two decimal places.)

Astone is thrown into a pond. what happens to the amplitude of the resulting waves as they get farther from the point where the stone hit the water? explain.

Electric field of the earth. the earth has a net electric charge that causes a field at points near its surface equal to 150 n> c and directed in toward the center of the earth. (a) what magnitude and sign of charge would a 60-kg human have to acquire to overcome his or her weight by the force exerted by the earth’s electric field? (b) what would be the force of repulsion between two people each with the charge calculated in part (a) and separated by a distance of 100 m? is use of the earth’s electric field a feasible means of flight? why or why not?
