Considering this analogy (current = rate that heat flows through a window, and voltage = temperature difference across the windo

w), how does the resistance of an object depend on the length of the object through which current flows? (This is equivalent to the relationship between the rate of thermal energy transfer and the thickness of the window through which this energy flows.)

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Resistance R in a current flow through an object is given by

R= \frac{\rho L}{A}

ρ = resistivity of the material

L= length of the object

A=  area of cross section

clearly resistance is directly dependent on length of the object.This means greater the length larger will be resistance to current.

thermal resistance R_th is given by

R_{th} = \frac{L}{KA}

L= length of the object

A=  area of cross section

K = Conductivity of the material

thermal resistance is also is directly dependent on length of the object.This means greater the length larger will be resistance to current.

Answer:

\dot Q\equiv I

R\equiv \frac{dx}{k.A}

\Delta T\equiv V

\dot Q=\frac{\Delta T}{(\frac{dx}{k.A} )}

I=\frac{V}{R}

Explanation:

For heat transfer through a window pane:

  • Let the temperature difference across the window pane be, \Delta T this temperature difference is the driving cause for the flow of heat, <em>likewise we have "V" the potential difference as the driving cause for the flow of charges.</em>
  • Let \dot{Q} be the rate of heat transfer, <em>likewise we have "I" as the rate of flow of charge.</em>
  • The heat transfer rate is inversely propotional to \frac{dx}{k.A}, where:

       dx is the thickness of the material across which the heat travels,

       k is the thermal conductivity of the material

       A is the area of the pane normal to the heat flow.

<em>        And for current we have a constant factor R called resistance to which         the current is inversely proportional to.</em>

<u>The heat transfer rate is given by the Fourier's Law as:</u>

\dot Q=k.A\frac{\Delta T}{dx}

can be further written as

\dot Q=\frac{\Delta T}{(\frac{dx}{k.A} )}...............................(1)

<u>The rate of flow of charge i.e. current is given by the Ohm's Law as:</u>

V=R.I

\Rightarrow I=\frac{V}{R}..............................................(2)

From equations (1) & (2)

\dot Q\equiv I

R\equiv \frac{dx}{k.A}

\Delta T\equiv V

shusha [124]

Answer:

1.6\times 10^{-18} C  

Explanation:

The fundamental charge of a single electron is 1.6\times 10^{-19} C.

If there are 10 excess electrons, the net charge that would be measured should be 10 times the fundamental charge of a single electron:

Q=nq_e\\Q= 10\times 1.6\times 10^{-19} C\\Q= 1.6 \times 10^{-18} C

What is force of gravity​
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

On Earth all bodies have a weight, or downward force of gravity, proportional to their mass, which Earth's mass exerts on them. Gravity is measured by the acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects. At Earth's surface the acceleration of gravity is about 9.8 metres (32 feet) per second per second.

How much heat is needed to melt 16.5kg of silver that is initially at 20*c?
zubka84 [21]
The Specific Heat Capacity of silver is 230 J/kgK, melting point is 961.8 C so the difference is 941.8K. Now we simply do q=230J/kgK*16.5kg*941.8K and that is 3 574 131 J
