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

An electron in a TV picture tube is accelerated through a potential difference of 10 kV before it hits the screen. What is the k
laiz [17]

Answer:

10,000 eV

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy gained by the electron is equal to its change in electric potential energy:

K=\Delta U=q \Delta V

where:

K is the kinetic energy of the electron

q=1 e is the magnitude of the charge of the electron

\Delta V is the potential difference through which the electron has been accelerated

For this electron in the TV, we have

\Delta V=10 kV=10000 V

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the electron in electronvolts is

K=(1 e)(10000 V)=10000 eV

A 3kg horizontal disk of radius 0.2m rotates about its center with an angular velocity of 50rad/s. The edge of the horizontal di
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

From the information given:

The angular speed for the block \omega = 50 \ rad/s

Disk radius (r) = 0.2 m

The block Initial velocity is:

v = r \omega \\ \\  v = (0.2  \times 50) \\ \\  v= 10 \ m/s

Change in the block's angular speed is:

\Delta _{\omega} = \omega - 0 \\ \\ = 50 \ rad/s

However, on the disk, moment of inertIa is:

I= mr^2 \\ \\ I = (3 \times 0.2^2) \\ \\ I = 0.12 \ kgm^2

The time t = 10s

∴

Frictional torques by the wall on the disk is:

T = I \times (\dfrac{\Delta_{\omega}}{t}) \\ \\ = 0.12 \times (\dfrac{50}{10})  \\ \\ =0.6 \ N.m

Finally, the frictional force is calculated as:

F = \dfrac{T}r{}

F= \dfrac{0.6}{0.2} \\ \\ F = 3N

If a volume of air is warmed, it expands and tends to
Butoxors [25]

if a volume of air is warmed it expands due to increased translational kinetic energy as it expands it will start to cool.

<h3>When does temperature increase volume?</h3>

We can then conclude that at constant pressure, temperature and volume are directly proportional: temperature increases, volume increases; decrease temperature, decrease volume.

In this case, the higher the temperature, the greater the kinetic energy that acts on the molecules of this gas, so when the gas expands, these molecules find more space and collide less, which will cause the gas to cool.

Explain the effects of force giving example​
Pie

Answer:

1) Can change the state of an object(rest to motion/ motion to rest):For example, pushing a heavy stone in order to move it. 2) May change the speed of an object if it is already moving. 4) May bring about a change in the shape of an object. For example, blowing air in balloon.
