A common method to measure thermal conductivity of a biomaterial is to insert a long metallic probe axially into the center of a
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

The thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is approximately 1.571 watts per meter-Celsius.

Explanation:

Let suppose that thermal conduction is uniform and one-dimensional, the conduction heat transfer (\dot Q), measured in watts, in the hollow cylinder is:

\dot Q = \frac{2\cdot k\cdot L}{\ln \left(\frac{D_{o}}{D_{i}} \right)}\cdot (T_{i}-T_{o})

Where:

k - Thermal conductivity, measured in watts per meter-Celsius.

L - Length of the cylinder, measured in meters.

D_{i} - Inner diameter, measured in meters.

D_{o} - Outer diameter, measured in meters.

T_{i} - Temperature at inner surface, measured in Celsius.

T_{o} - Temperature at outer surface, measured in Celsius.

Now we clear the thermal conductivity in the equation:

k = \frac{\dot Q}{2\cdot L\cdot (T_{i}-T_{o})}\cdot \ln\left(\frac{D_{o}}{D_{i}} \right)

If we know that \dot Q = 40.8\,W, L = 0.6\,m, T_{i} = 50\,^{\circ}C, T_{o} = 20\,^{\circ}C, D_{i} = 0.01\,m and D_{o} = 0.04\,m, the thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is:

k = \left[\frac{40.8\,W}{2\cdot (0.6\,m)\cdot (50\,^{\circ}C-20\,^{\circ}C)}\right]\cdot \ln \left(\frac{0.04\,m}{0.01\,m} \right)

k \approx 1.571\,\frac{W}{m\cdot ^{\circ}C}

The thermal conductivity of the biomaterial is approximately 1.571 watts per meter-Celsius.

A small plane flies at a speed of 102 km/h in still air. Suppose the wind blows out from the west (with the air moving east) at
Semmy [17]

Answer:

2.68 hours

Explanation:

A.) Suppose the wind blows out from the west (with the air moving east). The pilot should then head her plane to northwest direction to move directly north.

B.) Given that plane flies at a speed of 102 km/h in still air. And the wind blows out from the west (with the air moving east) at a speed of 46 km/h.

The plan resultant speed can be calculated by using pythagorean theorem.

Resultant Speed = Sqrt( 102^2 + 46^2 )

Resultant Speed = Sqrt( 12520)

Resultant speed = 111.89 km/h

From the definition of speed,

Speed = distance/time

Where distance = 300 km

Substitute the resultant speed and the distance into the formula.

111.89 = 300/time

Time = 300/111.89

Time = 2.68 hours

Therefore, it take her 2.68 hours to reach a point 300 km directly north of her srarting point

Explain why does the bowling ball decelerate as it travels along the lane
frutty [35]

The main cause of this is Friction. The more oil that is laid down, the less friction there is between the ball and the lane surface. The less friction, the harder it is for the bowler to send the ball in a curved path imparted by the spin that the bowler puts on the ball at the instant of release.
