Most cars have a coolant reservoir to catch radiator fluid that may overflow when the engine is hot. A radiator is made of coppe

r and is filled to its 21.1 L capacity when at 12.2°C. What volume of radiator fluid (in L) will overflow when the radiator and fluid reach a temperature of 95.0°C, given that the fluid's volume coefficient of expansion is β = 400 ✕ 10−6/°C? (Your answer will be a conservative estimate, as most car radiators have operating temperatures greater than 95.0°C).

Answer:

0.699 L of the fluid will overflow

Explanation:

We know that the change in volume ΔV = V₀β(T₂ - T₁) where V₀ = volume of radiator = 21.1 L, β = coefficient of volume expansion of fluid = 400 × 10⁻⁶/°C

and T₁ = initial temperature of radiator = 12.2°C and T₂ = final temperature of radiator = 95.0°C

Substituting these values into the equation, we have

ΔV = V₀β(T₂ - T₁)

= 21.1 L × 400 × 10⁻⁶/°C × (95.0°C - 12.2°C)

= 21.1 L × 400 × 10⁻⁶/°C × 82.8°C = 698832 × 10⁻⁶ L

= 0.698832 L

≅ 0.699 L = 0.7 L to the nearest tenth litre

So, 0.699 L of the fluid will overflow

A small meteorite with mass of 1 g strikes the outer wall of a communication satellite with a speed of 2Okm/s (relative to the s
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The energy coverted to heat is 200 kilojoules.

Explanation:

GIven the absence of external forces exerted both on the small meteorite and on the communication satellite, the Principle of Linear Momentum is considered and let suppose that collision is completely inelastic and that satellite is initially at rest. Hence, the expression for the satellite-meteorite system:

m_{M}\cdot v_{M} + m_{S}\cdot v_{S} = (m_{M}+m_{S})\cdot v

Where:

m_{M}, m_{S} - Masses of the small meteorite and the communication satellite, measured in kilograms.

v_{M}, v_{S} - Speeds of the small meteorite and the communication satellite, measured in meters per second.

v - Final speed of the satellite-meteorite system, measured in meters per second.

The final speed of the satellite-meteorite system is cleared:

v = \frac{m_{M}\cdot v_{M}+m_{S}\cdot v_{S}}{m_{M}+m_{S}}

If m_{M} = 1\times 10^{-3}\,kg, m_{S} = 200\,kg, v_{M} = 20000\,\frac{m}{s} and v_{S} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, the final speed is now calculated:

v = \frac{(1\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(20000\,\frac{m}{s} \right)+(200\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)}{1\times 10^{-3}\,kg+200\,kg}

v = 0.1\,\frac{m}{s}

Which means that the new system remains stationary and all mechanical energy from meteorite is dissipated in the form of heat. According to the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem, the change in the kinetic energy is equal to the dissipated energy in the form of heat:

K_{S} + K_{M} - K - Q_{disp} = 0

Q_{disp} = K_{S}+K_{M}-K

Where:

K_{S}, K_{M} - Initial translational kinetic energies of the communication satellite and small meteorite, measured in joules.

K - Kinetic energy of the satellite-meteorite system, measured in joules.

Q_{disp} - Dissipated heat, measured in joules.

The previous expression is expanded by using the definition for the translational kinetic energy:

Q_{disp} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot [m_{M}\cdot v_{M}^{2}+m_{S}\cdot v_{S}^{2}-(m_{M}+m_{S})\cdot v^{2}]

Given that m_{M} = 1\times 10^{-3}\,kg, m_{S} = 200\,kg, v_{M} = 20000\,\frac{m}{s}, v_{S} = 0\,\frac{m}{s} and v = 0.1\,\frac{m}{s}, the dissipated heat is:

Q_{disp} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left[(1\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(20000\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+(200\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-(200.001\,kg)\cdot \left(0.001\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right]Q_{disp} = 200000\,J

Q_{disp} = 200\,kJ

The energy coverted to heat is 200 kilojoules.

How is a scientific theory different from a hypothesis?
Maslowich
A scientific theory is different from a hypothesis because a theory is a educated guess that is being worked on and proven correct and a hypothesis is a educated guess it is a guess that needs to be proven.
