A silver bar of length 30 cm and cross-sectional area 1.0 cm2 is used to transfer heat from a 100°C reservoir to a 0°C block of

ice.
How much ice is melted per second? (For silver, k = 427 J/s⋅m⋅°C. For ice, Lf = 334 000 J/kg.)
a. 4.2 g/s
b. 2.1 g/s
c. 0.80 g/s
d. 0.043 g/s

Answer:

d. 0.043 g/s

Explanation:

Formula for rate of conduction of heat through a bar per unit time is as

follows

Q = k A ( t₁ - t₂ ) / L

A is cross sectional area and L is length of rod ,( t₁ - t₂ )  is temperature

difference . Q is heat conducted per unit time

Putting the values in the equation

Q = (427 x 1 x 10⁻⁴ x 100 )/ 30 x 10⁻²

= 14.23 J/s

mass of ice melted per second

= Q / Latent heat of ice

= 14.23 / 334000

= 0.043 g/s

Calculate the period of a satellite orbiting the Moon, 98 kmkm above the Moon's surface. Ignore effects of the Earth. The radius
beks73 [17]

Answer:

3.6*10^18s

Explanation:

To find the period of the satellite

We need to apply kephler's third law

Which is

MP² = (4π²/G) d³

d=semi-major axis which is the distance from center of moon = 98km+1740km = 1838km

where M= mass of the moon = 7.3x10^22kg

P=period

G=newtonian gravatational constant= 6.67x10^-11

To find the Period solve for P

P = √[(4π²/G M)xd³]

P=√(4 π²/6.67x10^-22*7.3x10^22kg) x (1.838x10^6m)³]

= 3.6*10^18s

A hydraulic machine has a small piston and a larger piston. Explain how a hydraulic machine multiplies force? What happens to th
Tanya [424]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pressure is equal to the force divided by the area on which it acts. Since the smaller piston has less area so from less force also we can get more efficiency in work. And according to the Pascal's principle, in a hydraulic system, pressure exerted on a piston produces an equal increase in pressure on another piston in the system. Thus by applying little force in the smaller piston, we can get same force from larger piston too. A hydraulic machine magnifies force.

Find the electric force acting on an alpha particle in a horizontal electric field of 600N/C
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
Since an alpha particle has 2 protons and no negative particles (electrons) to balance the net charge, its charge is
Q=2(1.6e-19)=3.2e-19C.
The force on a charged particle is F=QE so
(3.2e-19C)(600N/C)=1.92e-16N
