An example of an energy conversion that produces an unwanted form of energy is mixing acids with water. For example adding concentrated sulfuric acid with water that generates too much heat and must be controlled in systems that use this step of addition.

Assume the radius of an atom, which can be represented as a hard sphere, is r = 1.95 Å. The atom is placed in a (a) simple cubic

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

(a) A = $3.90 \AA$

(b) $A = 4.50 \AA$

(d) $A = 9.02 \AA$

Solution:

As per the question:

Radius of atom, r = 1.95 $\AA = 1.95\times 10^{- 10} m$

Now,

(a) For a simple cubic lattice, lattice constant A:

A = 2r

A = $2\times 1.95 = 3.90 \AA$

(b) For body centered cubic lattice:

$A = \frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}r$

$A = \frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}\times 1.95 = 4.50 \AA$

$A = 2{\sqrt{2}}r$

$A = 2{\sqrt{2}}\times 1.95 = 5.51 \AA$

(d) For diamond lattice:

$A = 2\times \frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}r$

$A = 2\times \frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}\times 1.95 = 9.02 \AA$

IRINA_888 [86]

Complete question :

NASA is concerned about the ability of a future lunar outpost to store the supplies necessary to support the astronauts the supply storage area of the lunar outpost where gravity is 1.63m/s/s can only support 1 x 10 over 5 N. What is the maximum WEIGHT of supplies, as measured on EARTH, NASA should plan on sending to the lunar outpost?

Answer:

601000 N

Explanation:

Given that :

Acceleration due to gravity at lunar outpost = 1.6m/s²

Supported Weight of supplies = 1 * 10^5 N

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth surface = 9.8m/s²

Maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH :

Ratio of earth gravity to lunar post gravity:

(Earth gravity / Lunar post gravity) ;

(9.8 / 1.63) = 6.01

Hence, maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH should be :

6.01 * (1 × 10^5)

6.01 × 10^5

= 601000 N

Technician A says that a tire will increase or decrease approximately 1 psi for each 10°F change of temperature. Technician B sa

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Technician A

Explanation:

It is seen that a tire pressure will increase or decrease 1 psi for each $10^{\circ} F$ change in temperature.

For Technician B vehicle pressure should not be adjusted after tire has been warmed as the warm air may increase the pressure but it will be auto adjusted as the temperature falls to normal .

What is the resistance of a carbon rod at 25.8 ∘C if its resistance is 0.0200 Ω at 0.0 ∘C ?

torisob [31]

0.02020 ohm is the resistance of a carbon rod at 25.8 ∘C if its resistance is 0.0200 Ω at 0.0 ∘C.

<h3 /><h3>What is a resistor?</h3>

A resistor is an electrical component that controls or restricts how much electrical current can pass across a circuit in an electronic device. A specified voltage can be supplied via resistors to an active device like a transistor.

The temperature of the resistor varies based on the variation in the temperature. The equation that describes the relationship between the two of them is:

R = R0[1+ alpha(T-T0)] where:

R is the new resistance we are looking for

alpha is the temperature coefficient of resistance. For carbon rod, alpha = ₋ 4.8 x $10^{-4}$ (1/°c)

T0 is the standard temperature =25.8°C

R0 is the resistance at T0 = 0.0200 ohms

T is the temperature at which we want to get R = 0

Substitute in the equation to get R as follows:

R = 0.0200 [1+( ₋ 4.8 x $10^{-4}$ ) (0-25.8)] = 0.02020 ohm
