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

A construction crane lowers a beam into place at constant speed. Consider the work Wg done by gravity on the beam and the work W
aalyn [17]

Answer:

Wg is positive and WT negative.

(Letters in options are all wrongly written).

Explanation:

Remember that the work of a force is the internal product between the force and the displacement W=F.d.

Since the displacement is downwards like the weight, the work done by gravity is positive, while the work done by the tension is negative since it points upwards.

Ultraviolet rays are used to _____.
NeTakaya

Answer:

Grow plants where little light is available

Explanation:

The plants need the ultraviolet rays in order to be able to survive and develop. The need mainly comes from the dependence of these rays for production of food, in a process known as photosynthesis. The plants are producers, thus they create their own food. In order to be able to do that they are using the ultraviolet rays, as well as water, and carbon dioxide. By combining them, the plants manage to create glucose for them, and that is their food source. The plants that are kept at places where there's not enough light are often exposed to ultraviolet rays so that they are able to perform the process of photosynthesis and grow properly.

When the tympanic membrane vibrates with the same frequency as the incoming sound waves it is known asamplitude.pitch.hertz.reso
Sphinxa [80]
<h2>Answer: Resonance </h2>

Resonance is a phenomenon that occurs when a body capable of vibrating is subjected to the action of a periodic force, whose frequency of vibration approaches the characteristic frequency of vibration (called resonance frequence) of said body. This is due a relatively small force applied in a repeated form, causing the amplitude of the oscillating system to become very large.

In other words, for the specific case of sound waves, this phenomenon occurs when the frequency of the  wave that is external to the system or body coincides with the resonance frequency (characteristic frequency that reaches the maximum degree of oscillation) of this system or body.

In these circumstances the body vibrates, progressively increasing the amplitude of movement after each successive actions of the force. However, this effect can be destructive in some rigid materials.
