Why is the definition for second based on the Cesium 133 atom?

7 0

Answer:

  The rate of vibrations of the atoms is consistent

Explanation:

A second is defined as 9,192,631,770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium 133 atom.

The definition applies when the atom is in isolation at a temperature of absolute zero. Adjustments must be made for the conditions that can be maintained in practice.

Such radiation is determined by the laws of quantum mechanics, so is extremely consistent.

The components of an electronic system dissipating 180 W are located in a 1-m-long horizontal duct whose cross section is 16 cm
oee [108]

Answer:

a) The exit temperature is 39.25°C

b) The highest component surface is 132.22°C

c) The average temperature for air equal to 35°C is a good assumption because the air temperature at the inlet will increase due to the result in the heat gain produced by the duct and whose surface is exposed to a flow of hot.

Explanation:

a) The properties of the air at 35°C:

p = density = 1.145 kg/m³

v = 1.655x10⁻⁵m²/s

k = 0.02625 W/m°C

Pr = 0.7268

cp = 1007 J/kg°C

a) The mass flow rate of air is equal to:

m=\rho *V = 1.145*0.65=0.7443kg/min=0.0124kg/s

The exit temperature is:

T=T_{i} +\frac{Q}{m*c_{p} } =27+\frac{0.85*180}{0.0124*1007} =39.25°C

b) The mean fluid velocity is:

V_{m} =\frac{V}{A} =\frac{0.65}{0.16*0.16} =25.4m/min=0.4232m/s

The hydraulic diameter is:

D_{h} =\frac{4A}{p} =\frac{4*0.16*0.16}{4*0.16} =0.16m

The Reynold´s number is:

Re=\frac{VD_{h} }{v} =\frac{0.4232*0.16}{1.655x10^{-5} } =4091.36

Assuming fully developed turbulent flow, the Nusselt number is:

Nu=0.023Re^{0.8} *Pr^{0.4} =0.023*4091.36^{0.8} *0.7268^{0.4} =15.69

h=\frac{k*Nu}{D_{h} } =\frac{0.02625*15.69}{0.16} =2.57W/m^{2} C

The highest component surface temperature is:

T=T_{e} +\frac{\frac{Q}{A} }{h} =39.2+\frac{0.85*\frac{180}{4*0.16*1} }{2.57} =132.22°C

In terms of the atomic radius, R, determine the distance between the centers of adjacent atoms for the FCC crystal structure alo
timama [110]

Answer:

The distance between the centers of adjacent atoms for the FCC crystal structure along the [100] is 2R√2

Explanation:

From the image uploaded, a Face centered cubic structure (100) plane, there is one atom at each of the four cube corners, each of which is shared with four adjacent unit cells, while the center atom lies entirely within the unit cell.

In terms of the atomic radius, R, we determine the distance between the centers of adjacent atoms.

Let this distance = AC

the two adjacent sides = AB and BC

AB = a = 2R

BC = a = 2R

Using Pythagoras theorem

AC² = AB² + BC²

AC² = a² + a²

AC² = 2a²

AC = √2a²

AC = a√2

But a = 2R

AC = 2R√2

Therefore,  the distance between the centers of adjacent atoms for the FCC crystal structure along the [100] is 2R√2
