Answer: 0.0138 m^2 = 138 cm^2
Explanation:
The thermal expansion is the term use for the physical phenomena of dilation of the objects when they are exposed to changes in temperature.
The objects dilate when they are heated and contract when they are cooled.
The dilation is proportional to the change in temperatur.
For linear dilation, the proportionality constant is called linear dilation coefficient of the materials, it is named α and is measured in °C ^-1.
ΔL = α * Lo * ΔT, which means that the dilation (or contraction) is proportional to the product of the original length (Lo) and the change of temperature (ΔT).
There is also superficial dilation, for which the dilation is:
ΔA = β * Ao * ΔT, which means that the superficial dilation (or contraction) is proportional to the product of the original area (Ao) and the change of temperature (ΔT).
It is very interesting and important to solve problems that β = 2α, because regularly you will find the values of α for different materials and so, you just to multiply it times 2 to use β.
For this problem:
- Original area, Ao = area of the flat roof at - 10°C = 2.0m * 3.0m = 6.0 m^2.
- α for aluminum = 24 * 10^ -6 °C^-1.
- ΔT = 38°C - (-10°C) = 48°C
So, ΔA = 6.0m^2 * (2 * 24*10^-6 °C&-1) * 48°C = 0.0138 m^2
And that is the area that should stick out in summer to fit the structure during cold winter nights.
You can pass that number to cm^2 to grasp better the idea of this size:
0.0138 m^2 * (100 cm)^2 / m^2 = 138 cm^2
Answer:
d) Decrease, increase, remain constant
Explanation:
If one tire has a slow leak, the air pressure within the tire will_DECREASE____with time due to outflow of air , the surface area between the tire and the road will__INCREASE__in time,due to flattening of tire.
The net force the tire exerts on the road will_REMAIN CONSTANT____in time. It is so because force does not depend upon area. It is pressure which depends upon area. As there is no change in the weight of the car , force on the road will remain constant.
Answer:
Height h = 37.8 m
Explanation:
Given
:
Velocity of car (v) = 98 km / h
Acceleration of gravity = 9.8 m/s²
Computation:
Acceleration of gravity = 9.8 m/s²
Acceleration of gravity = (98)(1,000 m / 3,600 s)
Acceleration of gravity = 27.22 m/s
By using law of conservation of energy
;
(1/2)mv² = mgh
h = v² / 2g
h = 27.22² / 2(9.8)
Height h = 37.8 m
