P=IV, where P is power, I is resistance, and V is voltage. Plug in and solve:

P=400(20)

P=8000W

Hope this helps!!

Treating the system as a point-like particle allows us to assign a quantity to the object and monitor this quantity throughout any changes. The complexity of the system which includes geometry, appearance, and extensions can complicate the studying of the system.

PROBLEM 5 (Problem 4-145 in 7th edition) Consider a well-insulated horizontal rigid cylinder that is divided into two compartmen

kari74 [83]

Answer:

The answer is " $\bold{83.8^{\circ} \ C}$ ".

Explanation:

Formula for calculating the mass in He:

$\to m = \frac{PV}{RT}\\$

$= \frac{500 \times 1}{ 2.0769 \times (40 + 273)}\\\\ = \frac{500 }{ 2.0769 \times 313}\\\\ = \frac{500 }{ 650.0697}\\\\= 0.76914 \ Kg$

Formula for calculating the mass in $N_2$ :

$\to m = \frac{PV}{RT}\\$

$= \frac{500 \times 1}{ 0.2968 \times (120+ 273)}\\\\ = \frac{500 }{ 0.2968 \times 393}\\\\ = \frac{500 }{ 116.6424}\\\\= 4.2866\ Kg$

by using the temperature balancing the equation:

$T' = \frac{mcT (He) + mcT ( N_2 )}{ mc (He) + mc ( N_2)}$

$= \frac{0.76914 \times 3.1156 \times 313 + 4.2866 \times 0.743 \times393}{ 0.76914 \times 3.1156 + 4.2866 \times 0.743} \\\\ = 357 \ \ K \approx 83.8^{\circ} \ C$

Convection is the rising of

Ad libitum [116K]

Since the outer plumage of the penguin can resist the flow of heat in the cold antarctic air they might gain a little of this heat to keep them warm by thermal convection.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Convection is the circular movement that happens when hot air/liquid moves with molecules that were fast, making it less dense rises while the cold air/liquid drops down.

Also, they follow the technique of standing together always in a group which further helps them to decrease the loss of heat between them.

The plumage of penguin provides 80 percent of total insulation and is highly resistant to wind penetration.
