Volume of water required to store 100,000 Btu of thermal energy is 320.51foot^{3} .

<u>Explanation:</u>

The complete question is : One cubic foot of water can store 312 Btu of thermal energy. On a cold winter day a well-constructed home may require 100,000 Btu of nighttime space heating. What is the volume of water required to store this energy? In this question , it's given that One cubic foot of water can store 312 Btu of thermal energy or 312 Btu takes 1 cubic foot of water ,So

1 Btu takes  \frac{1}{312} cubic foot of water

Therefore, 100,000 Btu takes:

⇒ volume = \frac{1}{312}(100,000) foot^{3}

⇒ volume = \frac{100,000}{312} foot^{3}

⇒ volume = 320.51 foot^{3}

∴ Volume of water required to store 100,000 Btu of thermal energy is 320.51foot^{3} .

maw [93]

Explanation:

From the experiment:

      Number of protons  = 74

      Number of neutrons  = 110

Number of protons in an element is the atomic number of the element. It is used to locate and position and element on the periodic table.

For a neutral or uncharged atom, the number of protons is the same as the number of electrons.

The element whose number of protons or atomic number if 74 is Tungsten

  Mass number  = 74 + 110  = 184g/mol

An example of a high explosive is what?
nordsb [41]
The answer is Dynamite.
Explosive, any substance or device that can be made to produce a volume of rapidly expanding gas in an extremely brief period. Chemical explosives are of two types; detonating, or high explosives and deflagrating, or low, explosives. Detonating explosives, such as TNT and dynamite, are characterized by extremely rapid decomposition and development of high pressure, whereas deflagrating explosives, such as black and smokeless powders, involve merely fast burning and produce relatively low pressures.
