Leila is building an aluminum-roofed shed in her backyard to store her garden tools.The flat roof will measure 2.0 x 3.0m in are

a during the coldest winter months when the temperature is -10° C, but temperatures in Leila’s neighborhood can reach as high as 38° C in the summer. What is the area of the roof that should stick out from the shed in the summer so that the roof just fits the structure during cold winter nights? (aluminum= 24 x

Answer: 0.0138 m^2  = 138 cm^2

Explanation:

The thermal expansion is the term use for the physical phenomena of dilation of the objects when they are exposed to changes in temperature.

The objects dilate when they are heated and contract when they are cooled.

The dilation is proportional to the change in temperatur.

For linear dilation, the proportionality constant is called linear dilation coefficient of the materials, it is named α and is measured in °C ^-1.

ΔL = α * Lo * ΔT, which means that the dilation (or contraction) is proportional to the product of the original length (Lo) and the change of temperature (ΔT).

There is also superficial dilation, for which the dilation is:

ΔA = β * Ao * ΔT, which means that the superficial dilation (or contraction) is proportional to the product of the original area (Ao) and the change of temperature (ΔT).

It is very interesting and important to solve problems that β = 2α, because regularly you will find the values of α for different materials and so, you just to multiply it times 2 to use β.

For this problem:

- Original area, Ao = area of the flat roof at - 10°C = 2.0m * 3.0m = 6.0 m^2.
- α for aluminum = 24 * 10^ -6 °C^-1.
- ΔT = 38°C - (-10°C) = 48°C

So, ΔA = 6.0m^2 * (2 * 24*10^-6 °C&-1) * 48°C = 0.0138 m^2

And that is the area that should stick out in summer to fit the structure during cold winter nights.

You can pass that number to cm^2 to grasp better the idea of this size:

0.0138 m^2 * (100 cm)^2 / m^2 = 138 cm^2

Ishani and John now try a problem involving a charging capacitor. An uncharged capacitor with C = 6.81 μF and a resistor with R
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Q=81.72\times10^{-6}C

I=2.1\times10^{-5}A

Explanation:

The maximum charge on the capacitor will be, at the end of the process, given by the formula (and for our values):

Q=CV=(6.81\times10^{-6}F)(12V)=81.72\times10^{-6}C

The maximum current on the resistor will be, at the beginning of the process, given by the formula (and for our values):

I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{12V}{5.8\times10^{5}\Omega}=2.1\times10^{-5}A

What is Stefan's botmann's constant​
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

The Stefan–Boltzmann constant (also Stefan's constant), a physical constant denoted by the Greek letter σ (sigma), is the constant of proportionality in the Stefan–Boltzmann law: "the total intensity radiated over all wavelengths increases as the temperature increases", of a black body which is proportional to the ...

What happens to the frequency and pitch of sound if the object making the sound moves away from you ?
Olin [163]

If you and the source of sound are moving apart, then the pitch (frequency) <em>you hear</em> is <em>lower</em> than the pitch (frequency) that's actually leaving the source.  

It doesn't matter whether you or the source is the one moving, only that the distance between you is increasing.

Share your thoughts about this statement by John Wesley<br> "Electricty is the soul of universe"
ikadub [295]

Answer:

<em>I think this statement is true at least in modern day times. The world runs on nothing but technology. People use more technology instead of old school textbooks and papers. Imagine living in a world without technology… that means no cars, no trains, no devices, no machines like your stove or printer, no lights and lots more. John Wesley is 100 percent correct with this statement. Electricity is indeed the powerhouse of the universe. </em>
