All of the following statemants about the earths atmosphere are true except:

1 answer:

8 0

All the statements about the atmosphere are correct except statement 2. The atmosphere has effects on landforms and does affect the biosphere. For instance, landforms are constantly been broken down and renew by the process of weathering, erosion, etc. The atmosphere plays principal roles in these processes.

Water is being boiled in an open kettle that has a 0.52-cm-thick circular aluminum bottom with a radius of 12.0 cm. If the water

tangare [24]

Answer:

$T_b=107.3784\ ^{\circ}C$

Explanation:

Given:

thickness of the base of the kettle, $dx=0.52\ cm=5.2\times 10^{-3}\ m$

radius of the base of the kettle, $r=0.12\ m$

temperature of the top surface of the kettle base, $T_t=100^{\circ}C$

rate of heat transfer through the kettle to boil water, $\dot Q=0.409\ kg.min^{-1}$

We have the latent heat vaporization of water, $L=2260\times 10^3\ J.kg^{-1}$

and thermal conductivity of aluminium, $k=240\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}$

So, the heat rate:

$\dot Q=\frac{0.409\times 2260000}{60}$

$\dot Q=15405.67\ W$

From the Fourier's law of conduction we have:

$\dot Q=k.A.\frac{dT}{dx}$

$\dot Q=k\times \pi.r^2\times \frac{T_b-T_t}{5.2\times 10^{-3}}$

where:

$A=$ area of the surface through which conduction occurs

$T_b=$ temperature of the bottom surface

$15405.67=240\times \pi\times 0.12^2\times \frac{T_b-100}{5.2\times 10^{-3}}$

$T_b=107.3784\ ^{\circ}C$ is the temperature of the bottom of the base surface of the kettle.

The 1.0-kg collar slides freely on the fixed circular rod. Calculate the velocity v of the collar as it hits the stop at B if it

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

6.21 m/s

Explanation:

Using work energy equation then

$U_{1-2}=T_B- T_A\\58d-mgh=0.5m(v_b^{2}-v_a^{2})$

where d is displacement from initial to final position, v is velocity and subscripts a and b are position A and B respectively, m is mass of collar, g is acceleration due to gravity

Substituting 1 Kg for m, 0.4m for h, $v_a$ as 0, 9.81 for g then

$58(\sqrt{0.4^{2}+0.3^{2}}-0.1)-(1\times 9.81\times 0.4)=0.5\times 1\times (v_b^{2}-v_a^{2})\\19.276=0.5\times 1v_b^{2}\\v_b=6.209025688 m/s\approx 6.21 m/s$
