Electromagnets

When an electric current flows in a wire, it creates a magnetic field around the wire. This effect can be used to make an electromagnet. A simple electromagnet comprises a length of wire turned into a coil and connected to a battery or power supply.

An aluminum cup of mass 150 g contains 800 g of water in thermal equilibrium at 80.0°C. The combination of cup and water is cool
gladu [14]

Answer:

Heat Flow Rate : ( About ) 87 W

Explanation:

The heat flowing out of the system each minute, will be represented by the following equation,

Q( cup ) + Q( water ) = m( cup ) * c( al ) * ΔT + m( w ) * c( w ) * ΔT

So as you can see, the mass of the aluminum cup is 150 grams. For convenience, let us convert that into kilograms,

150 grams = .15 kilograms - respectively let us convert the mass of water to kilograms,

800 grams = .8 kilograms

Now remember that the specific heat of aluminum is 900 J / kg * K, and the specific heat of water = 4186 J / kg * K. Therefore let us solve for " the heat flowing out of the system per minute, "

Q( cup ) + Q( water ) = .15 * ( 900 J / kg * K )  * 1.5 + .8 * ( 4186 J / kg * K ) * 1.5,

Q( cup ) + Q( water ) = 5225.7 Joules

And the heat flow rate should be Joules per minute,

5225.7 Joules / 60 seconds = ( About ) 87 W

Does specific heat of a substance depend on its temperature?​
lara [203]

Answer:

temperature

Explanation:

In general, the specific heat also depends on the temperature. The table below lists representative values of specific heat for various substances. Except for gases, the temperature and volume dependence of the specific heat of most substances is weak.

What is the time constant of a 9.0-nm-thick membrane surrounding a 0.040-mm-diameter spherical cell? Assume the resistivity of t
yawa3891 [41]

Given Information:

Diameter of spherical cell = 0.040 mm

thickness = L = 9 nm

Resistivity =  ρ = 3.6×10⁷ Ω⋅m

Dielectric constant = k = 9.0

Required Information:

time constant = τ = ?

Answer:

time constant = 2.87×10⁻³ seconds

Explanation:

The time constant is given by

τ = RC

Where R is the resistance and C is the capacitance.

We know that resistivity of of any material is given by

ρ = RA/L

R =  ρL/A

Where area of spherical cell is given by

A = 4πr²

A = 4π(d/2)²

A = 4π(0.040×10⁻³/2)²

A = 5.026×10⁻⁹ m²

The resistance becomes

R =  (3.6×10⁷*9×10⁻⁹)/5.026×10⁻⁹

R = 6.45×10⁷ Ω

The capacitance of the cell membrane is given by

C = kεoA/L

Where k = 9 is the dielectric constant and εo = 8.854×10⁻¹² F/m

C = (9*8.854×10⁻¹²*5.026×10⁻⁹)/9×10⁻⁹

C = 44.5 pF

C = 44.5×10⁻¹² F

Therefore, the time constant is

τ = RC

τ = 6.45×10⁷*44.5×10⁻¹²

τ = 2.87×10⁻³ seconds
