A room has a wall with an R value of 18 F sq.ft. hr/BTU. The room is 15 feet long and 11 feet wide with walls that are 9 ft high

. On a particular day the average outside temperature is 40 degrees F. How much heat is transferred through the walls on that day (in BTUs)?

Answer:

The heat transferred through the wall that day is  13728 BTUs

Explanation:

Here, we have the area of the wall given as

Area of wall = 2 × Length × Height + 2 × Width × Height

Length = 15 feet

Width = 11 Feet and

Height = 9 feet

Therefore, the area = 2×15×9 + 2×11×9 = 468 ft²

Temperature difference is given by

Average outside temperature - Wall temperature = 40 - 18 = 22 °F

Therefore the heat transferred through the wall that day (24 hours) at 18 sq.ft. hr/BTU is given by;

468 × 22 × 24/18 = 13728 = 13728 BTUs.

What is Diabetic Retinopathy? Describe it in at least 1 paragraph.
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Diabetic Retinopathy is a form of diabetes that affects the eyes. It can be caused by damage to the retinas, and can cause permanent damage to the eyes, and even blindness. Initially the patient is asymptomatic and become more visibly affected in later stages. It can be treated if caught early, or in mild cases.

Which of the following best describes a chemical equation that demonstrates the law of conservation of matter?
LiRa [457]
B, since it is the only one that actually conserves matter for certain. In each of the others, matter could still be imbalanced, since for A, for example, it could be 5 Carbons on the right and 5 Chlorines on the left, and that would not balance.

A thin rod (length = 1.09 m) is oriented vertically, with its bottom end attached to the floor by means of a frictionless hinge.
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

a) w = 4.24 rad / s , b) α  = 8.99 rad / s²

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we use the conservation of kinetic energy,

Initial. Vertical bar

        Emo = U = m g h

Final. Just before touching the floor

       Emf = K = ½ I w2

As there is no friction the mechanical energy is conserved

       Emo = emf

       mgh = ½ m w²

The moment of inertial of a point mass is

        I = m L²

       m g h = ½ (m L²) w²

       w = √ 2gh / L²

The initial height h when the bar is vertical is equal to the length of the bar

         h = L

         w = √ 2g / L

Let's calculate

       w = RA (2 9.8 / 1.09)

       w = 4.24 rad / s

b) Let's use Newton's equation for rotational motion

         τ = I α

         F L = (m L²) α

The force applied is the weight of the object, which is at a distance L from the point of gro

         mg L = m L² α  

          α  = g / L

          α  = 9.8 / 1.09

          α  = 8.99 rad / s²
