Answer: The heat moves through the atmosphere through the process of radiation.

Explanation:

There are three modes of transfer:

1. Conduction: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct contact between the two object.

2. Radiation: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct transfer of energy through space.

3. Convection: This type of heat transfer happens when there is a movement of fluid (liquid or gas) in which convection currents are produced due to the movement of hot fluid upwards and cold fluid downwards.

Thus heat moves through the atmosphere through the process of radiation

Your boss tells you that water at 68 F is flowing in a cooling tower loop at a rate of 600 gpm, in an 8-inch inside diameter pip

avanturin [10]

Explanation:

The volumetric flow rate of water will be as follows.

q = $600 gpm \times \frac{0.000063 m^{3} s^{-1}}{1 gpm}$

= 0.0378 $m^{3}/s
$

Diameter = $8 in \times \frac{0.0254 m}{1 in}$

= 0.2032 m

Relation between area and diameter is as follows.

A = $\frac{\pi}{4} \times D^{2}$

= $\frac{3.14}{4} \times (0.2032 m)^{2}$

= 0.785 x 0.2032 x 0.2032

= 0.0324 $m^{2}$

Also, q = A × V

or, V = $\frac{q}{A}$

= $\frac{0.0378 m^{3}/s}{0.0324 m^{2}}$

= 1.166 m/s

As, viscosity of water = 1 cP = $10^{-3}$ Pa-s

Density of water = 1000 $kg/m^{3}$

Therefore, we will calculate Reynolds number as follows.

Reynolds number = $\frac{D \times V \times density}{viscosity}$

= $\frac{0.2032 m \times 1.166 m/s \times 1000}{10^{-3}}$

= 236931.2

Hence, the flow will be turbulent in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that the Reynolds number is 236931.2 and flow is turbulent.

A newly discovered element, Z, has two naturally occurring isotopes. 90.3 percent of the sample is an isotope with a mass of 267

kirill115 [55]

Ok so, remember that t<span>he average atomic mass is what is seen on the periodic table. It is the average mass of all of the isotopes with their frequency taken into account. What you need to do is add the products of the masses and frequencies Just like this:</span>

<span>0.903*267.8 + 0.097*270.9
When you add it the result is what you are looking for</span>

calculate the heat required in joules to convert 18.0 grams of water ice at a temperature of -20 c to liquid water at the normal

KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat required to convert ice to ice at 0⁰C

= mass x specific heat x rise in temperature

= 18 x 2.09 x 20

= 752.4 J .

heat required to convert ice at 0⁰C to water at 0⁰C

mass x latent heat of fusion

= 18 x 336

= 6048 J

Heat required to increase the temperature of water to 100⁰C

= 18 x 4.2 x 100

= 7560 J

Total heat required

7560 + 6048 + 752.4

= 14360.4 J

What’s the formula for Lithium acetate

notsponge [240]

Answer:

The formula for lithium acetate is CH3COOLi

Explanation:

The formula for lithium acetate is obtained by replacing the hydrogen atom bonding to the oxygen atom in acetic acid with Li as shown below:

CH3COOH + LiOH —> CH3COOLi + H2O
