Answer:
6.86 × 10²⁴ kg
Explanation:
The mass of the earth m = density of earth, ρ × volume of earth, V
m = ρV
The density of the earth, ρ = 5515 kg/m³ and since the earth is a sphere, its volume is the volume of a sphere V = 4πr³/3 where r = radius of the earth = 6.67 × 10⁶ m
Since m = ρV
m = ρ4πr³/3
So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation for the mass of the earth, m, we have
m = 5515 kg/m³ × 4π(6.67 × 10⁶ m)³/3
m = 5515 kg/m³ × 4π × 296.741 × 10¹⁸ m³/3
m = 5515 kg/m³ × 1189.9639π × 10¹⁸ m³/3
m = 6546105.64378π × 10¹⁸ kg/3
m = 20565197.400122 × 10¹⁸ kg/3
m = 6855065.8 × 10¹⁸ kg
m = 6.8550658 × 10²⁴ kg
m ≅ 6.86 × 10²⁴ kg
Answer:
Newton's law of cooling states that the rate of heat loss of a body is directly proportional to the difference in the temperatures between the body and its surroundings. The law is frequently qualified to include the condition that the temperature difference is small and the nature of heat transfer mechanism remains the same. As such, it is equivalent to a statement that the heat transfer coefficient, which mediates between heat losses and temperature differences, is a constant. This condition is generally met in heat conduction (where it is guaranteed by Fourier's law) as the thermal conductivity of most materials is only weakly dependent on temperature. In convective heat transfer, Newton's Law is followed for forced air or pumped fluid cooling, where the properties of the fluid do not vary strongly with temperature, but it is only approximately true for buoyancy-driven convection, where the velocity of the flow increases with temperature difference. Finally, in the case of heat transfer by thermal radiation, Newton's law of cooling holds only for very small temperature differences.
When stated in terms of temperature differences, Newton's law (with several further simplifying assumptions, such as a low Biot number and a temperature-independent heat capacity) results in a simple differential equation expressing temperature-difference as a function of time. The solution to that equation describes an exponential decrease of temperature-difference over time. This characteristic decay of the temperature-difference is also associated with Newton's law of cooling
Average Velocity = Total Displacement / Total time
1st part of journey, 350 km at velocity 125 km/h
Time = 350 / 125 = 2.8 hours.
2nd part of journey, 220 km at velocity 115 km/h
Time = 220 / 115 = 1.9 hours
Average Velocity = Total Displacement / Total time
= (350 + 220) / (2.8 + 1.9)
= 570 / 4.7 ≈ 121.3 km/hr
Average Velocity ≈ 121 km/hr due south.
