Contributers to Greenhouse Effect. Those gas molecules in the Earth's atmosphere with three or more atoms are called "greenhouse gases" because they can capture outgoing infrared energy from the Earth, thereby warming the planet.

Is it proper to use an infinitely long cylinder model when finding the temperatures near the bottom or top surfaces of a cylinde

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

No, it is not proper to use an infinitely long cylinder model when finding the temperatures near the bottom or top surfaces of a cylinder.

Explanation:

A cylinder is said to be infinitely long when is of a sufficient length. Also, when the diameter of the cylinder is relatively small compared to the length, it is called infinitely long cylinder.

Cylindrical rods can also be treated as infinitely long when dealing with heat transfers at locations far from the top or bottom surfaces. However, it not proper to treat the cylinder as being infinitely long when:

* When the diameter and length are comparable (i.e have the same measurement)

When finding the temperatures near the bottom or top of a cylinder, it is NOT PROPER TO USE AN INFINITELY LONG CYLINDER because heat transfer at those locations can be two-dimensional.

Therefore, the answer to the question is NO, since it is not proper to use an infinitely long cylinder when finding temperatures near the bottom or top of a cylinder.

Three identical resistors are connected in parallel to a battery. If the current of 12. A flows from the battery, how much curre

Doss [256]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

We are given that

$R_1=R_2=R_3=4\Omega$

I=12 A

We have to find the current flowing through each resistor.

We know that in parallel combination current flowing through different resistors are different and potential difference across each resistor is same.

Formula :

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}$

Using the formula

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}$

$R=\frac{4}{3}\Omega$

$V=IR$

Substitute the values

$V=12\times \frac{4}{3}=16 V$

$I_1=\frac{V}{R_1}=\frac{16}{4}=4 A$

$I_1=I_2=I_3=4 A$

Hence, current flows through any one of the resistors is 4 A.

Martha wants to calculate an object's velocity. What will she need to do?

Answer:

you divide the distance by the time it takes to travel that same distance, then you add your direction to it.

suggest an experiment to prove that the rate of evaporation of a liquid depends on its surface area vapour already present in su

gulaghasi [49]

That's two different things it depends on:

-- surface area exposed to the air
AND
-- vapor already present in the surrounding air.

Here's what I have in mind for an experiment to show those two dependencies:

-- a closed box with a wall down the middle, separating it into two closed sections;

-- a little round hole in the east outer wall, another one in the west outer wall,
and another one in the wall between the sections;
So that if you wanted to, you could carefully stick a soda straw straight into one side,
through one section, through the wall, through the other section, and out the other wall.

-- a tiny fan that blows air through a tube into the hole in one outer wall.

Experiment A:

-- Pour 1 ounce of water into a narrow dish, with a small surface area.
-- Set the dish in the second section of the box ... the one the air passes through
just before it leaves the box.
-- Start the fan.
-- Count the amount of time it takes for the 1 ounce of water to completely evaporate.
=============================
-- Pour 1 ounce of water into a wide dish, with a large surface area.
-- Set the dish in the second section of the box ... the one the air passes through
just before it leaves the box.
-- Start the fan.
-- Count the amount of time it takes for the 1 ounce of water to completely evaporate.
=============================
Show that the 1 ounce of water evaporated faster 
when it had more surface area.
============================================
============================================

Experiment B:

-- Again, pour 1 ounce of water into the wide dish with the large surface area.
-- Again, set the dish in the second half of the box ... the one the air passes
through just before it leaves the box.
-- This time, place another wide dish full of water in the first section of the box,
so that the air has to pass over it before it gets through the wall to the wide dish
in the second section. Now, the air that's evaporating water from the dish in the
second section already has vapor in it before it does the job.
-- Start the fan.
-- Count the amount of time it takes for the 1 ounce of water to completely evaporate.
==========================================
Show that it took longer to evaporate when the air 
blowing over it was already loaded with vapor.
==========================================
