If a steady-state heat transfer rate of 3 kW is conducted through a section of insulating material 1.0 m2 in cross section and 2

.5 cm thick and the thermal conductivity may be taken as 0.2 W/m K, what is the temperature difference across the material?

Answer:

\Delta T = \frac{3000 W *0.025 m}{1 m^2 (0.2 \frac{W}{mK})}= 375 K

So then the difference of temperature across the material would be \Delta T = 375 K

Explanation:

For this case we can use the Fourier Law of heat conduction given by the following equation:

Q = -kA \frac{\Delta T}{\Delta x}   (1)

Where k = thermal conductivity = 0.2 W/ mK

A= 1m^2 represent the cross sectional area

Q= 3KW represent the rate of heat transfer

\Delta T is the temperature of difference that we want to find

\Delta x=2.5 cm =0.025 m represent the thickness of the material

If we solve \Delta T in absolute value from the equation (1) we got:

\Delta T =\frac{Q \Delta x}{Ak}

First we convert 3KW to W and we got:

Q= 3 KW* \frac{1000W}{1 Kw}= 3000 W

And we have everything to replace and we got:

\Delta T = \frac{3000 W *0.025 m}{1 m^2 (0.2 \frac{W}{mK})}= 375 K

So then the difference of temperature across the material would be \Delta T = 375 K

If it takes 100 N to get a 10 kg object to accelerate at 10m/s/s, how much force will it take to get a 20 kg object to accelerat
yan [13]

Answer: C) 200 N

Explanation:

The force F is defined as:

F=m.a

Where:

m=20 kg is the mass of the object

a=10 m/s^{2} is the acceleration

Then:

F=(20 kg)(10 m/s^{2})

Finally:

F=200 N

Hence, the correct option is C.

What are the two opposing forces at work as fusion takes place in stars?
____ [38]

Answer;

1. strong nuclear force

2. electromagnetic force/ electric force

Explanation;

The more protons an element has, the harder it is to bring nuclei together. It takes more energy to trigger fusion in iron and other heavy elements. Lighter elements, such as helium and hydrogen, require less energy to bring about fusion. The sun, for instance, spends most of its life converting hydrogen into helium.

-The strong nuclear force  depends on; a more massive the object is the more attractive the force produced and also as distance between objects increases, attractive force decreases at a faster rate.
