Answer:

D) The gas has the same temperature throughout

Explanation:

In case of heat transfer due to convection we will say that thermal energy is transferred by the movement of the molecules itself.

Here we know that in convection mode of heat transfer the molecules which are at high temperature will rise above due to lesser density.

Due to this density difference all the molecules of gas at high temperature moves upwards and heavy particles of gas at low temperature comes down.

In this way the molecules will move along with thermal energy and the energy is transferred by convection method.

But if all the gas molecules comes to same temperature then the heat can not flow as there is no density difference and hence there is no energy transfer through the medium

A 100-W (watt) light bulb has resistance R=143Ω (ohms) when attached to household current, where voltage varies as V=V0sin(2πft)

Phantasy [73]

Complete Question

A 100-W (watt) light bulb has resistance R=143Ω (ohms) when attached to household current, where voltage varies as V=V0sin(2πft), where V0=110 V, f=60 Hz. The power supplied to the bulb is P=V2R J/s (joules per second) and the total energy expended over a time period [0,T] (in seconds) is $U = \int\limits^T_0 {P(t)} \, dt$

Compute U if the bulb remains on for 5h

Answer:

The value is $U = 7.563 *10^{5} \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The power rating of the bulb is $P = 100 \ W$

The resistance is $R = 143 \ \Omega$

The voltage is $V = V_o sin [2 \pi ft]$

The energy expanded is $U = \int\limits^T_0 {P(t)} \, dt$

The voltage $V_o = 110 \ V$

The frequency is $f = 60 \ Hz$

The time considered is $t = 5 \ h = 18000 \ s$

Generally power is mathematically represented as

$P = \frac{V^2}{ R}$

=> $P = \frac{( 110 sin [2 \pi * 60t])^2}{ 144}$

=> $P = \frac{ 110^2 [ sin [120 \pi t])^2}{ 144}$

$U = \int\limits^T_0 { \frac{ 110^2* [sin [120 \pi t])^2}{ 144}} \, dt$

=> $U = \frac{110^2}{144} \int\limits^T_0 { ( sin^2 [120 \pi t]} \, dt$

=> $U = \frac{110^2}{144} \int\limits^T_0 { \frac{1 - cos 2 (120\pi t)}{2} } \, dt$

=> $U = \frac{110^2}{144} \int\limits^T_0 { \frac{1 - cos 240 \pi t)}{2} } \, dt$

=> $U = \frac{110^2}{144} [\frac{t}{2} - [\frac{1}{2} * \frac{sin(240 \pi t)}{240 \pi} ] ]\left | T} \atop {0}} \right.$

=> $U = \frac{110^2}{144} [\frac{t}{2} - [\frac{1}{2} * \frac{sin(240 \pi t)}{240 \pi} ] ]\left | 18000} \atop {0}} \right.$

$U = \frac{110^2}{144} [\frac{18000}{2} - [\frac{1}{2} * \frac{sin(240 \pi (18000))}{240 \pi} ] ]$

=> $U = 7.563 *10^{5} \ J$

uniform ladder of length 6.0 m and weight 300 N leans against a frictionless vertical wall. The foot of the ladder isplaced 3.0

olganol [36]

Answer:

Fx1 (6 m) sin 60 = 300 (3 m) cos 60 balancing torques about floor

Fx1 = 900 * 1/2 / 5.20 = 86.6 N this is the horizontal force that must be supplied by the wall to balance torques about the floor

This is also equal to the static force of friction that must be applied at the point of contact with the floor to balance forces in the x-direction.

Fx1 = Fx2 = 86.6 N

Hey! So referring to the data the thing we can clearly see is that in a vacuum, everything, regardless of its mass, falls at the same speed.

Acceleration is often confused with speed, or velocity, but the difference is, acceleration by definition is the rate of which an object falls with respect to its mass and time.

Every single thing in the world falls at the same acceleration, this is because of gravity. The difference is the speed of which it falls. In space, there is not any gravity, and so, the objects are able to fall at the same speed regardless of their mass.

If an element's atomic mass and atomic number are known, what else can be determined? Give an example to demonstrate your unders

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

If an elements atomic mass and number are known you can also determine the number of protons and neutrons it has. You can also determine where it is on the periodic table. For example, if a element had a atomic mass of 10 then it would be higher up on the table then one with a mass of 20. Btw I do apex too.
