Answer: D) 28 cm

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by the following equation:

\frac{\Delta L}{L_{o}}= \alpha \Delta T (1)

Where:

\Delta L is the change in the length of the outer skin of the Concorde

L_{o}=62.1 m is the initial length of the outer skin of the Concorde

\alpha=2.40(10)^{-5} \°C^{-1} is the coefficient of linear thermal expansion for aluminium

\Delta T=T_{f}-T_{o}=200\°C - 15\°C=185\°C is the variation in temperature

Isolating \Delta L:

\Delta L=\alpha \Delta T L_{o} (2)

\Delta L=(2.40(10)^{-5} \°C^{-1})(185\°C)(62.1 m) (3)

\Delta L=0.275 m \frac{100 cm}{1m}=27.5 cm (4)

Finally:

\Delta L=27.5 cm \approx 28 cm

PLEASE HELP ASAP Which one of the following is a step used for balancing chemical equations?
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

C. Count the atoms in each substance in the reactants and products.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction can be defined as a chemical process which typically involves the transformation or rearrangement of the atomic, ionic or molecular structure of an element through the breakdown and formation of chemical bonds to produce a new compound or substance.

In order for a chemical equation to be balanced, the condition which must be met is that the number of atoms in the reactants equals the number of atoms in the products.

This ultimately implies that, the mass and charge of the chemical equation are both balanced properly.

In Chemistry, all chemical equation must follow or be in accordance with the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed by either a physical transformation or a chemical reaction but transformed from one form to another in an isolated (closed) system.

One of the step used for balancing chemical equations is to count the atoms in each substance in the reactants and products.

For example;

NH3 + O2 -----> NO + H2O

The number of atoms in each chemical element are;

For the reactant side:

Nitrogen, N = 1

Hydrogen, H = 3

Oxygen, O = 2

For the product side;

Nitrogen, N = 1

Hydrogen, H = 2

Oxygen, O = 2

When we balance the chemical equation, we would have;

NH3 + 3O2 -----> 4NO + 2H2O

A very good insulator has an R-value of 29. The material's heat transfer coefficient is
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

b. 0.034

Explanation:

The heat transfer coefficient of a material (U-value) is equal to the reciprocal of its R-value, therefore:

U = \frac{1}{R}

where

R is the R-value of the material

For the insulator in this problem,

R = 29

Substituting into the equation, we find the heat transfer coefficient:

U=\frac{1}{29}=0.034

A wad of clay of mass m1 = 0.49 kg with an initial horizontal velocity v1 = 1.89 m/s hits and adheres to the massless rigid bar
notka56 [123]

Answer:

<h2>The angular velocity just after collision is given as</h2><h2>\omega = 0.23 rad/s</h2><h2>At the time of collision the hinge point will exert net external force on it so linear momentum is not conserved</h2>

Explanation:

As per given figure we know that there is no external torque about hinge point on the system of given mass

So here we will have

L_i = L_f

now we can say

m_1v_1\frac{L}{2} = (m_2L^2 + m_1(\frac{L}{2})^2)\omega

so we will have

0.49(1.89)(0.45) = (2.13(0.90)^2 + 0.49(0.45)^2)\omega

\omega = 0.23 rad/s

Linear momentum of the system is not conserved because at the time of collision the hinge point will exert net external force on the system of mass

So we can use angular momentum conservation about the hinge point
