How will heat flow between objects?

alukav5142 [94]

Without an external agent doing work, heat will always flow from a hotter to a cooler object. Two objects of different temperature always interact. There are three different ways for heat to flow from one object to another. They are conduction, convection, and radiation.

The wheel having a mass of 100 kg and a radius of gyration about the z axis of kz=300mm, rests on the smooth horizontal plane.a.

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

a) 20 rad/s

b) 6 m/s

Explanation:

b) Force acting on the wheel is 200 N

mass of the wheel is 100 kg

From Newton's second law of motion, F = m × a

Where F is the net force acting on the body

m is mass of the body

a is the acceleration of the body

By substituting the values we get, a = 2 m/s²

As acceleration is constant, we can use the below formula for calculating the final velocity of the object

v = u + a × t

Where v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time taken

u = 0 (∵ it starts from rest)

By substituting the values we get

v = 0 + 2 × 3 = 6 m/s

∴ Speed of center of mass after 3 seconds = 6 m/s

a) As the wheel rotates about z-axis, radius of gyration will be the radius of wheel

∴ Radius of the wheel = 300 mm

Torque acting on the wheel about axis of rotation = 300 mm × 200 N =

60 N·m

Torque = (Moment of inertia) × (angular acceleration)

Assuming that the mass of spokes of the wheel to be negligible,

Moment of inertia of the wheel about axis of rotation = 100 × 300² × $10^{-6}$ = 9 kg·m²

Then,

60 = 9 × (angular acceleration)

∴ angular acceleration ≈ 6·67 rad/s²

As angular acceleration of the wheel is constant, we can use the below formula for calculation of final angular speed

$w_{f}$ = $w_{i}$ + α × t

Where

$w_{f}$ is the final angular velocity

$w_{i}$ is the initial angular velocity

α is the angular acceleration

t is the time taken

$w_{i}$ is 0 (∵ initially it starts from rest)

By substituting the values we get

$w_{f}$ = 6·67 × 3 = 20 rad/s

∴ Angular velocity of the wheel after three seconds = 20 rad/s

A hot (70°C) lump of metal has a mass of 250 g and a specific heat of 0.25 cal/g⋅°C. John drops the metal into a 500-g calorimet

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

d. 37 °C

Explanation:

$m_{m}$ = mass of lump of metal = 250 g

$c_{m}$ = specific heat of lump of metal = 0.25 cal/g°C

$T_{mi}$ = Initial temperature of lump of metal = 70 °C

$m_{w}$ = mass of water = 75 g

$c_{w}$ = specific heat of water = 1 cal/g°C

$T_{wi}$ = Initial temperature of water = 20 °C

$m_{c}$ = mass of calorimeter = 500 g

$c_{c}$ = specific heat of calorimeter = 0.10 cal/g°C

$T_{ci}$ = Initial temperature of calorimeter = 20 °C

$T_{f}$ = Final equilibrium temperature

Using conservation of heat

Heat lost by lump of metal = heat gained by water + heat gained by calorimeter

$m_{m} c_{m} (T_{mi} - T_{f}) = m_{w} c_{w} (T_{f} - T_{wi}) + m_{c} c_{c} (T_{f} - T_{ci}) \\(250) (0.25) (70 - T_{f} ) = (75) (1) (T_{f} - 20) + (500) (0.10) (T_{f} - 20)\\T_{f} = 37 C$

In complete sentences describe the energy flow between the Sun, the Earth, and space

agasfer [191]

Answer: The energy from the sun passes through space in the form of invisible waves to the earth surface. It heats up the earth’s surface causing variation in climate.
Explanation:
The amount of incoming energy from the Sun decides the weather and climate of earth. If the energy that is incoming and outgoing on the earth, then climate is in equilibrium. The balance is depending on the scattering, absorption, reflection and transformation of energy.
The energy from sun passes through space and reaches the earth’s surface. On reaching surface, the solar energy warms the atmosphere releasing heat energy which gets transferred throughout the planets system by radiation, conduction and convection. Conduction happens in the atmosphere within first several millimeters close to the surface. This heated air expands as it is dense and rises causing transfer of heat to atmosphere through convection process. It results in formation of clouds.
The radiant energy from sun is transmitted via space in form of invisible waves. But much of the suns radiant energy, is transmitted back to atmosphere. The objects on earth like land, plants, animals absorb radiant energy as heat of which one third gets re-radiated back to atmosphere that is absorbed by carbon dioxide and water vapor. The atmosphere radiates heat energy back to earth increasing the earth temperature. This trapping of radiation is greenhouse effect.
The thermal energy obtained by convection currents are responsible for wind, cloud formation, and weather formation. The hydrosphere that comprises of 70% of earth’s surface absorbs solar energy.
On the basis of the above explanation is:
The energy from the sun passes through space in the form of invisible waves to the earth surface. It heats up the earth’s surface causing variation in climate.
