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

Crank
A resultante das duas forças será zero, já q os sentidos são opostos e sãos iguais em módulo, elas se anulam. Logo, se a força resultante é zero, e F=ma, aceleração também será igual a zero.

Describe the changes in the velocity of a ball thrown straight up into the air. then describe the changes in the ball's accelera
expeople1 [14]

There is a displacement. Just because the ball is thrown up, and not crossways, doesn't mean its location is not moving. Remember, positive displacement is together a displacement in the direction east, right, and up.  The velocity is the distance over time. To compute that, you must look how high the ball moved before falling back down. Acceleration is expected to be constant at 9.80m/s^2. That is the force of gravity. But remember that you are disregarding air friction when you are computing the acceleration.

A motorcyclist travels with an average speed of 6 m/s . If the cyclist is going to a friend's house 36 m away , how much time wi
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

<h2>6 s</h2>

Explanation:

The time taken by the cyclist can be found by using the formula

t  = \frac{d}{v}  \\

v is the velocity

d is the distance

From the question we have

t =  \frac{36}{6}  \\  = 6

We have the final answer as

<h3>6 s</h3>

Hope this helps you

Answer:

After a male ejaculates, many sperms move to the upper vagina (via contractions from the vagina) through the cervix and across the length of the uterus, reaching the fallopian tubes. Here they will meet the egg cell ready to be fertilized
