The tallest building in the world, according to some architectural standards, is the Taipei 101 in Taiwan, at a height of 1671 f

eet. Assume that this height was measured on a cool spring day when the temperature was 13.0 ∘C . You could use the building as a sort of giant thermometer on a hot summer day by carefully measuring its height. Suppose you do this and discover that the Taipei 101 is 0.481 foot taller than its official height.What is the temperature, assuming that the building is in thermal equilibrium with the air and that its entire frame is made of steel?

Answer:

35.14°C

Explanation:

The equation for linear thermal expansion is \Delta L = \alpha L_0\Delta T, which means that a bar of length L_0 with a thermal expansion coefficient \alpha under a temperature variation \Delta T will experiment a length variation \Delta L.

We have then \Delta L = 0.481 foot, L_0 = 1671 feet and \alpha = 0.000013 per centigrade degree (this is just the linear thermal expansion of steel that you must find in a table), which means from the equation for linear thermal expansion that we have a \Delta T =\frac{\Delta L }{\alpha L_0} = 22.14°. As said before, these degrees are centigrades (Celsius or Kelvin, it does not matter since it is only a variation), and the foot units cancel on the equation, showing no further conversion was needed.

Since our temperature on a cool spring day was 13.0°C, our new temperature must be T_f=T_0+\Delta T = 35.14°C

what is the focalength of the combination of two thin renses of power -5D and -2D placeci in contact with each other?​
Ghella [55]

Answer:

f = - 0.143 m = - 14.3 cm

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the power of the combination of lenses:

P = P₁ + P₂

where,

P = Power of Combination = ?

P₁ = Power of first lens = - 5D

P₂ = Power of second lens = - 2D

Therefore,

P = - 5D - 2D

P = - 7D

Now, the focal length can be given as:

f = \frac{1}{P} \\\\f = \frac{1}{-\ 7\ D} \\\\

<u>f = - 0.143 m = - 14.3 cm</u>

Negative focal length indicates that combination will act as diverging lens.

Which statement is correct about the car?
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

OOf we are doing this stuff atm

So if its faster at the front and slow at the back you can tell that its not slowing down because less of a force is there however at the front there is more of a force. Friction is low which means that its not makimg much contact so no sudden change of forces thats also why its B

A freight car of mass M contains a mass of sand m. At t = 0 a constant horizontal force F is applied in the direction of rolling
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Amount of linear movement

Explanation:

Our system is defined by the rate of change in mass that

leaves the car \Delta m_ {s} , this happens during a time interval

[t, t + \Delta t], in addition to freight car and sand at time t.

In this way we need to define the two states:

State 1,

consider t, m_ {c} (t) + \Delta m_ {s} and V.

State 2,

consider t + \Delta t, m_ {c} (t), V + V \Delta V

In this state is the mass of sand output, which

is composed of

\Delta m_{s}, V + \Delta V

In this way we define the Linear movement in x, like this:

p_ {x} (t) = (\Delta m_ {s} + m_ {c} (t)) v

p_ {x} (t+\Delta t) = (\Delta m_ {s} + m_ {c} (t)) (v + \Delta v)

m_ {c} (t) = m_ {c, 0} - bt = m_ {c} + m_ {s} -bt

In this way we proceed to obtain the Force

F =\lim_{\Delta t \rightarrow 0} \frac {p_x (t + \Delta t) -p_ {x} (t)} {\Delta t}

F = lim_{\Delta t \rightarrow 0} m_ {c} (t) \frac {\Delta v} {\Delta t} + lim_{\Delta t \rightarrow 0} m_ {s} (t) \frac {\Delta v} {\Delta T}

Since the mass of the second term becomes 0, the same term is eliminated, thus,

F = m_ {c} (t) \frac {dv} {dt}

\int\limit ^ {v (t)} _ {v = 0} dv = \int\limit^t_0 \frac{Fdt} {m_ {c} + m_ {s} -bt}

V (t) = - \frac {F} {b} ln (\frac {m_c + m_s-bt} {m_c + m_s})
