This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A carpenter builds a solid wood door with dimensions 1.95 m × 0.99 m × 4.5 cm . Its thermal conductivity is k=0.120W/(m.K). The air films on the inner and outer surfaces of the door have the same combined thermal resistance as an additional 1.6 cm thickness of solid wood. The inside air temperature is 19.0°C , and the outside air temperature is -6.50°C .

a) What is the rate of heat flow through the door?

b) By what factor is the heat flow increased if a window 0.550 m on a side is inserted in the door? The glass is 0.450 cm , and the glass has a thermal conductivity of 0.80 W/(m.K). The air films on the two sides of the glass have a total thermal resistance that is the same as an additional 12.0 cm of glass.

Answer:

a) the rate of heat flow through the door is 97 watts

b) The factor of increased heat flow is 1.353

Explanation:

Given that;

room dimension = 1.95m × 0.99m × 4.5cm,

thermal conductivity = 0.120 w/m.k

additional thickness of solid wood Δt = 1.6 cm

a)

first we determine the effective thickness of the door;

t = 4.5cm + 1.6 cm = 61 cm ≈ 0.061 m

Now rate of heat flow is given by the relation

Q = KA( (TH -TC)/L)

= 0.12 × (1.95 m × 0.99 m) × ( (19°C - (-6.50°C)) / 0.061m)

= 0.23166 × 418.0327

= 96.8414 watts

Q = 97 watts

therefore the rate of heat flow through the door is 97 watts

b)

by intensity the glass of thickness 0.450 cm

the effective thickness is

L = 0.45cm + 12 cm = 12.45 cm = 0.1245 m

additionally area of glass A = (0.550 m)²

A = 0.3025 m²

Now

Qglass = KA ((TH-TC)/L)  

= 0.80 w/m.k × 0.3025 m² × (19°C - (-6.50°C)) / 0.1245m)

= 0.242 × 204.819

Qglass = 49.57 watt  

Qwood = KA ((TH-TC)/L)  

area of wooden door = (1.95×0.99) - 0.3025 m² = 1.628m²

so Qwood = 0.12 × 1.628 × (19°C - (-6.50°C)) / 0.061m)

= 0.19536 × 418.0327

Qwood = 81.67 watt

Q = Qglass + Qwood

Q = 49.57 watt  + 81.67 watt

Q = 131.24 watt

The factor of increased heat flow is;

f = 131.24 watt / 97 watts

f = 1.353

An ion with charge of Q = +3.2 x 10-19 C is in a region where a uniform electric field of magnitude E = 5.0 X 105 V/m is perpend
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,

Q = +3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

E = 5.0 X 10⁵ V/m

B = 0.80 T

ion's acceleration is zero  

when acceleration is zero the magnitude of both the forces becomes equal.

q E = q V B

v = \dfrac{E}{B}

v= \dfrac{5 \times 10^5}{0.80}

v = 6.25 × 10⁵ m/s ≈ 6.3 × 10⁵ m/s

hence, the correct answer is option C

A "590-W" electric heater is designed to operate from 120-V lines.
lukranit [14]

Answer:

a) 24.4 Ω

b) 4.92 A

c) 495.9 W

d)

c. It will be larger. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will increase, increasing the power.

Explanation:

b)

The formula for power is:

P = IV

where,

P = Power of heater = 590 W

V = Voltage it takes = 120 V

I = Current Drawn = ?

Therefore,

590 W = (I)(120 V)

I = 590 W/120 V

<u>I = 4.92 A</u>

<u></u>

a)

From Ohm's Law:

V = IR

R = V/I

Therefore,

R = 120 V/4.92 A

<u>R = 24.4 Ω</u>

<u></u>

c)

For constant resistance and 110 V the power becomes:

P = V²/R

Therefore,

P = (110 V)²/24.4 Ω

<u>P = 495.9 W</u>

<u></u>

d)

If the resistance decreases, it will increase the current according to Ohm's Law. As a result of increase in current the power shall increase according to formula (P = VI). Therefore, correct option is:

<u>c. It will be larger. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will increase, increasing the power.</u>
